Coffee makers

Hey Chuck, I have read that the one cup filter cones are the way to go, but I am too lazy

Well if that's the case get the Keurig.
Ours is the B60 Special Edition.
The coffee is about 35 cents a cup if you buy the cartridges on Amazon and get enough at a time for free shipping.
It doesn't even have any parts to clean.
Just put in a cartridge (called K-Cups), press a button, wait 15 sec, drink, repeat.
Every once in a while you do have to fill it with water.

i find it funny that the most expensive coffee in the world tastes like cat shit.

thinking about that always reminds me of Cheech & Chong's 'Labrador' scit.

Ok, I've read the reviews of this maker and everyone loves it accept that it doesn't seem to make strong enough coffee. That is a big downside for me. What is your opinion on how strong or weak the coffee is?

I bought one tonight. I got it for $130 out the door. That's $18 cheaper than Amazon.

I tried my first cup tonight. It was somewhat weak, but still tasted good. I'll try it for about a week and if I don't like it, will return it.

Timothy's Rainforest Extra Bold Espresso

It's even Canadian.

PS- God help us they're building a Starbucks a short walk from our house.

Coffee ... bleh. I like the smell, hate the taste. Ice water wakes me up better than caffeine anyway.

Coffee make me nervous and jittery and makes my hands shake like mad, gives me bad breath for the better half of the day, gives me nasty runs and gives me nasty stomach aches too. I'd rather drink a redbull, tastes better, doesn't give me bad breath, doesn't make me nervous and jittery and is nice and esy on my stomach and digestive system. Funny how I'm less sensitive to the caffeine from a redbull then I am from a cup of coffee.

The Philips Senseo makes surprisingly good coffee and is very convenient, but running costs are higher and choice is limited due to the pad system. My favourite fair trade coffee is available for it, though.

That's what I have and I love it. Dan and I were discussing this yesterday and my wife chirped in with the fact that they sell a kit for making your own pods. Not something I'm overly concerned with, but it's nice to have the option for using your own favorite blend.

I know it may be an abomination to some, but I've gotten in the habit of using their medium or dark roast pods and flavouring with special creamers - something I've never done before. Let's me flavour to taste without worrying about what pod flavours I can get.
