    What’s your favorite K-Cup?

    Just started drinking coffee this year and I enjoy my K-Cup coffee machine for its convenience.

    I’ve been enjoying Tim Hortons Original Blend.

    I know a lot of people find K-Cups un-drinkable and I understand but if you do drink K-Cups what’s your go to?

    Dunkin's is primarily what I use from a k-cup. Actually, its what I get most of the time ground as well.

      We’re not at all picky about our coffee. So Costco medium roast or breakfast blend depending on what’s on sale. It’s the best deal out there on K cups I believe.

        My favorite is the refillable cup you put your own grounds in.

        In all seriousness, I do have a box of Community Coffee Signature Dark Roast in my desk at work in case I have to work late and I've run my small thermos empty.

          Coffee taste preference is very much like truck preference. The arguments for and against brands and blends is endless. I don't drink coffee straight up. I like it with creamer & Splenda. So for me, the choice is very simple - I buy the cheapest one I can find. And the cheapest I have found is the Walmart brand; 96 cups in a box for $25. I prefer the breakfast blend medium roast over the donut shop dark roast. I've tried the fill my own cups method but gave it up very quickly. Way more work than I'm willing to tackle first thing in the morning for my 2 cups of coffee per day. But hey, if that's your thing, go for it.

          And seriously, if you know of a cheaper price than $25 for a 96-cup box, I want to know about it.

            For the time and dollars invested, I like Costco's Pacific Bold. Kim likes the HazelNut from Big/Odd Lots. Both appx 30 cents for 8oz. When I have the time n some decent whole milk, I will crank out some Lattes. Usually a kona or there abouts.

              Starbucks Italian Roast or Emerill's Big Easy. Both dark roast.

                Don't drink much, but keep some on hand for when I get a hankering.

                  Alan Brice no idea, I see no mention of it on the box glancing over it.

                  It would say "Coffee & Chicory" on the front of the package on nice yellow label to warn you of that fact. "Danger, Will Robinson, the coffee blend has chicory, danger."

                San Francisco Bay Espresso Roast -- available on Amazon -- is about the best dark roast I've found. I drink my coffee black and I like a dark roast that isn't too bitter.

                    Peet's is my favorite brand but it has become cost prohibitive. More so their K-Cups.

                    Costco regularly has it on sale but I am getting it direct from Keurig at a similar price on auto-ship. Was part of the deal to get a deep discounted machine - it's "smart" and senses the type of pod and supposedly adjusts the brewing parameters for optimum flavor. Keeps track of my pod inventory and auto-ships before I run out. Happy so far.

                  Barista brand, Italian roast and their French roast both with just a dribble of half/half.

                      I was drinking them before I switched over to Tim Hortons. There is nothing wrong with them.

                    We prefer regular drip coffee, and make a pot every morning, but also have a Keurig next to it.... and an old Delonghi pump espresso machine, haha. So I guess you could say we are coffee snobs. Anyway, all we buy these days for K-cups are the Member's Mark Organic Dark Roast, usually 100 cups for about $28 at Sam's Club. I've grown to prefer those, as being dark roast, you get a little more flavor out of them than you do with some of the lighter blends in a K-cup.

                      I prefer the one we can order from CoffeeAM, Kenya AA. We usually make drip Kenya AA because the K-Cups are more expensive per cup, and we drink a lot of coffee.

                        We prefer the Eight O’Clock brand.
                        I drink my coffee black.
