Single serve coffee brewers – as easy as instant coffee, and better tasting too.As you may have read elsewhere on this site, we have mixed feelings about single serve coffee makers.
A good step up from instant coffee... Here is what our friend said, more or less: "I have been an instant coffee drinker my whole life. As far back as I remember. I don’t have the interest or time to grind coffee beans, mess with filters and wait for a whole carafe of coffee to brew. Besides, I’d probably only drink half of it anyway. That’s why these single serve coffee brewers work for me. I have a Keurig and making a cup of Colombian or Kenya coffee is as easy as making a cup of instant.” OK, we can’t argue with that. Which single-serve brewer should you choose? There are two main contenders in this market right now, Keurig and Senseo. Keurig Keurig offers one of the most popular range of single-serve brewers. You just fill the water reservoir, pop in the K-Cup, and press one button. There are a variety of different models to choose from, with different features and price points. Downside: Keurig brewers are a little pricey when compared to regular drip brewers. Upside: Keurig offers a good variety of coffees in the K-Cup coffee format...over 70 at the time of writing. There are also some teas available in K-Cups. Find out more about, and buy Keurig brewers here.
Senseo The Senseo single cup brewers use coffee pods. As with the Keurig, there are a few models to choose from, but they are all very similar. And once again, you just fill the water reservoir, place a pod in the coffee pod holder, and press one button. Downside: Still more expensive than a regular drip brewer, but less expensive than the Keurig brewers. Upside: You’ll have more coffees to choose from, and some hot chocolate pods too.
