I tried a k-cup with my flex brew coffee maker today. Thanks for the
encouragement and it worked really well. My friend and I were looking at
the
manual and I think the flex brew uses both old and newer k-cups and the
best
thing is there's only one button, nothing digital that has to be
programmed
in. and I tried the coffee pods yesterday and the machine works with
ground
coffee as well, as I said I n the message the other day.

I have it; really like it!! I had been bauking at the idea of what even
the
simple Keurigs cost, and well, since Amazon tracked what I was looking at,
it sent me a 'you might be interested in' E-mail. It was $49. There were
brands of coffee not available in regular that I had really wanted to try,
so bought from .11streetcoffee, which has good prices. Someone showed me
how once you put the K-cupin the basket, how you press down on part of it
to
lock the cup in and puncture the hole in the top of the cup; once I
understood about that, hod no problem. I'm not giving up on my four-cup
regular maker, but this is real nice for when I want just one cup and
quickly, and since I clean after each use, I like that for tea now I don't
have to wait for a whole kettle to boil; I can just put the bag in the
cup,
have the water come down over it, and let it steep.
Kathy.

Subject: [CnD] Flex-Brew Coffee Maker
Hamilton Beach now has a flex-brew coffee maker, as they call it. It
is half the price of a Keurig. It is a single serve coffee maker and
brews regular ground coffee, coffee pods and k-cups. I have one. I've
had it for a week. I haven't tried k-cups in it. And I'm not sure if
or when I will, but if it works withK-cups, it would be a bargain for
those who don't
want to pay the price for a keurig pot. I got it from Amazon. I found it
by
accident while browsing Amazon on New Year's day. I ordered it right away
and got it a week ago today. You can only pour ten ounces of water in at
a
time. But that's not a problem for me.

Subject: Re: [CnD] The Keurig coffee maker
Hi I am only familiar with two models of the Keurig. The Mini, which
requires you to pour each cup of water into the unit, costs
approximately $99. the Elite, which has a 48 oz. tank on the side,
sells for approximately $129.00. I do know from experience that if
you buy these items from Bed Bath and Beyond you will pay more for
them. try Wal-Mart or Sams for the units. sometimes QVC will carry
one of these units and they will offer special gift items with the
maker. Of course, you can order directly from Keurig. Their phone
number is 866-901-2739. Also, when you order your K-cups from Keurig
you get one point of credit for
every K-Cup that you order. You also receive free shipping and a free 5
pack when you order at least 4 boxes of product. I hope that this is
helpful. Oh yeah, I almost forget to mention that the more points that
you
accumulate at Keurig the larger discount you will receive on future
orders
of coffee, accessories, and even the makers. Mike
