Hamilton beach and black and decker make one cup coffee makers where you measure coffee that are much cheaper than keurig coffee makers. If you're going to measure your coffee as I do, why buy such an expensive coffee maker?

You can purchase a well made plastic coffee holder that fits in the receptacle just right. You can fill it with coffee with a teaspoon, which is much cheaper than puying the pods. Works well. I also have a Mr. coffee 12-cup coffee maker for when other people are with me and wanting coffee Lois Goodine. . ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jan Brown" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, February 07, 2014 7:26 AM Subject: Re: [CnD] coffee makers > L > "I am a huge coffee snob and have owned many different makers over the > decades beginning with an electric perkalator in college.
