Q: Which is the BEST single-cup coffee maker??
I have owned 2 Home Cafe coffee makers, and both were a piece of junk. However, I like the coffee (Millstone) pods that work in that system. I never drink enough coffee to make a pot, so have steered away from traditional coffee makers. I know Home Cafe has a new model (afraid to take my chances) and Senseo has a model. The Senseo system looks like it makes an extremely small cup of coffee. What are your experiences and suggestions?
A: Both Braun (Tassimo) and Krups (HomeCafe) make pretty good pod-based coffee makers. They are more expensive than Black & Decker or Mr Coffee, but the machines are also higher quality and should hold up better. Senseo also makes good quality machines. As for the size of the cups, it can be set to either 4 oz or 8 oz. You'll basically either get a 4 oz cup of very strong coffee (almost espresso) or an 8 oz cup of lighter coffee (more like an americano). One complaint that I've heard about this machine is that the cup clearance is only 3.5" - so you might want to measure your favorite cup before buying it.
The advantage of pod coffee makers is that they are quick and easy with almost no cleanup. However, you have a limited selection of coffees (just those available in pods) and they tend to be more expensive. The other (cheaper) option is to make drip coffee manually. Pick up a cone filter holder (like this one - http://www.melitta.com/cgi-bin/sgin0101.exe?UID=6620041218171171&T1=64+0008 ). Alternatively, you can get a small french press (they come as small as 12 oz volume). The french press tends to make the best coffee. The benefit of these is you won't be limited by the selection of pods and you'll have the option to get fresher coffee. Do be sure to customize your grind for your brewing technique.
Q: What kind of licensing do I need to sell coffee from a single cup brewer at a flea market?
I have a Keurig brewer and would like to sell cups of coffee at my booth. The machine uses individually sealed cups of grounds so there isn't a health risk. Do flea markets allow beverage sales?
A: Health permit from the health department.
Q: Is it normal to use the double delivery spout on a gaggia classic for a single cup of coffee? ?
I bought a gaggia classic yesterday and according to the diagram the double delivery spout can be removed for cleaning but it seems impossible to remove. I was just wondering if it was normal to leave the double spout on there when making only one cup.
Any guidance appreciated...
A: Yes
However you will only use the single filter instead of the double. Unless you like it strong of course.
Q: I just bought a Mr.coffee single cup pod brewer, do anybody know where I can purchase coffee pods for this?
A: Good luck with that!!! Here ya go ::
Q: Single-cup Coffee Maker?
Does anyone have a Senseo coffee maker? Do you like it? How big is a "cup"? Thanks!
A: The best way to make a single cup of coffee, that doesn't break the bank is a French Press, actually the best way to make coffee.
The can be found for small amounts for under $20 US.
You use a coarser grind than you would use for drip coffee, ( like peculator grind) but if drip is all you can find it will work fine.
You put the coffee in the press, you will need to experiment with the amount so you get it to your taste. Then you bring water to almost a boil. Put the water in the press and allow it to steep for about four to five minutes depending on how strong you want it. Then push the plunger down and pour in a cup. The press has a strainer but you may want to use an addition strainer. It will be some of the best coffee you have ever had.
Q: Looking for good single cup coffee/espresso maker
I am looking for a good coffee/espresso maker that uses those pods/cups, etc. I am looking for something that is less than $400. I would prefer around the $250 range but want something decent. The thing that is most important is the selection of coffee type beverages available. I knew someone awhile back that had one that made coffees like Maple Sugar Shack and such. So do you know any brands that have a wide selection of drinks? (if it helps I'm sure her coffee packs were the cup/liquid type
with the averages starbucks drink being around $4.... I would save around $3.25 drinking at home. With just one cup a day, I would save the money (not to mention time) to make it worth it.
A: i was looking for the same thing and i found it!!! a tassimo coffee maker. it makes a single cup of coffee, cappucino, expresso, hot chocolate!!!, latee's everything!!!, it makes maxwel house, starbucks, it is the best thing i have ever owned and i payed around 200.00 for it!!!!! great investment
Q: has any one used any of the Keurig single cup coffee brewers?
A: Yes... I have one at work. They're convenient because the coffee doesn't burn and you can make one cup the way you want it - and they have two settings on how much water gets filtered through the pod to dilute your coffee.

Q: Keurig B60 Single-Cup Brewer? Coffee seems watery and machine stays fairly hot....?
We just bought this yesterday. It seems like the coffee is a bit watered down. Has this happened to anyone else? Also, I left the machine on, as stated in the manual, and even after an hour it felt fairly hot. Is this normal?
I had to use 2 pods this morning to make my coffee not seem so watery. One I did on the 10oz size and the other on the 4 oz size. Seems like a waste of pods....
A: Keurig B60 Single-Cup Brewer . . . yep, this particular brand is a lemon. And if you like a full-flavored cup of coffee, the pod brewers are never going to do it for you. A good burr-grinder for the beans, and a good V-filter drip model is the best combo for a great cup of coffee.
Q: I am looking for a coffee machine to dispense single cups of coffee in a factory setting?
This machine makes individual cups of coffee at varing strengths from fresh grounds then discards the grounds and is ready for the next selection.
A: MR. COFFEE HAD A ONE CUP MICROWAVE COFFEE MAKER. I HAVE ONE AND LOVE IT. I DON'T KNOW IF THEY MAKE THEM ANYMORE. GREAT CUP OF COFFEE IN 3 MIN.
Q: Do you secretly snicker when someone spends half an hour ordering a single cup of coffee in Starbucks?
Double tall non fat low sugar super-mocha-frappa-chai- latte-tino with extra vegan foam and sweetener?
A: Yeah those people are douchebags.
