2010 Single Serve Coffee Holiday Gift Guide – K-Cups, Coffee Pods, and Single Serve Coffee Machines

holidayshoppingguide1_sse.jpgWe’ve seen an incredible variety of K-Cups, Coffee Pods, and other single serve coffee wonders debut in 2010, and we’ve picked out the best of the best for you in the single serve coffee world. We’ve divided up the guide by price to make your holiday shopping even easier, and we’ve picked out the best single serve coffee makers, coffee pods, k cups, coffee gadgets, coffee cups, and other super cool items single serve coffee items.

Over $500

We really think if you’re going to put the money down on a machine that does it all – check out the Nespresso Lattissima. We love the one touch cappuccinos and lattes, and the espresso and coffee produced from the machine is excellent. The Lattissima also comes in a variety of cool colors, and it’s been a welcome addition to any coffee lovers kitchen for over 3 years.

We also think you might want to purchase two single serve coffee makers to get the most amazing coffee experiences like the Bosch Tassimo Hot Beverage System and the Nescafe Dolce Gusto. Why not have two? If you’re willing to spend over $500 you should get the widest possible range of single serve coffee options, and while you’re at it throw in a Keurig Mini Plus.

$350

Nespresso Le Cube C180 - Arctic White - 1-2

We recommend the Nespresso Le Cube. The design is sharp and interesting and you’ll have your hands full of espresso and single serve cups of coffee.

200-$350

base_media.jpeg We really like the Bunn My Cafe MC Model, and the the Keurig B70. You’ll be entering the world of K Cups with the Keurig B70 and the world of coffee pods with your Bunn My Cafe MC Model. Also if you want to impress, the Breville BKC600XL Gourmet Single Cup Brewer or the Cuisinart SS700 Keurig Brewer is stunning, and it’s our Keurig top choice as it’s recently been redesigned to be super quiet like the Keurig B70.

31YSACj45RL._AA280_.jpg$150

We really like the Nespresso Essenza C100 . The Nespresso Essenza will get you in the Nespresso club on the cheap, but the espresso and single serve coffee will be very god.

On the Keurig front, the Keurig B60 rings in at only $149.99. It will get you into the Keurig club for a great price with almost all the features of the more expensive Keurig B70.

Under $100

B40-SmWe think the Keurig B40 will get you into the world of Keurig and K Cups for the right price. At $99 bucks the Keurig B40 can’t be beat for ease of use and variety in single serve coffee.

Another winner for $89.99 this year is the Keurig Mini Plus. You can use any K-Cups that the bigger Keurigs use, and the machine has a very small footprint. This is the perfect give for someone who has a single serve coffee maker at home like the Keurig B60, and wants to take their coffee to work. You can even purchase a tote bag to carry the Keurig Mini B30 in.

Under $50

Aero Press 03-TmWe recommend the Aeropress single serve coffee maker. It’s not one you plug in, but you can hand craft and make perfect cups of single serve coffee every time. The best part – you can use whatever coffee you like and the coffee produced is amazing.

Make Your Own Single Serve Coffee Stuff

We highly recommend the Perfect Pod Coffee Pod Maker, and the Perfect Pod Holster.

The Perfect Pod maker allows you to make your own coffee pods when using the Cuisinart SS-1 Cup-O-Matic Single Serve Coffee Maker, Senseo, Bunn My Cafe, Melitta One:One, Grindmaster, and Krups Home Cafe single serve coffee pod brewers.

The Perfect Pod Holster allows you to use coffee pods you make or coffee pods you buy in your Keurig Elite B40 Brewer, Keurig B50, Keurig Special Edition Ultra Elite B60, Breville BKC600XL Gourmet Single Cup Brewer, and the Keurig B70 Brewer.

Coffee Pods

KonacoffeepodsWe recommend Cool Beans Pods – always a solid coffee pod and with a large variety. We also really love the new Fratello coffee pods. Want to get something very fresh and super creative? You can also always search in Amazon.com for the latest coffee pods for your single serve coffee maker. Also read our coffee pod reviews for the latest and greatest picks.

K Cup Coffee

Img 1244-1If you’re looking for the latest K Cup coffee you can always visit Green Mountain Coffee.

And if you’re looking for more K Cups than just those from Green Mountain Coffee, you can check out CoffeeCow.com and CoffeGiant.com. They both have a assortment of K Cups, and offer K Cups from Timothy’s and others.

There’s also always Amazon.com. They offer all the K Cup varieties and have a huge assortment of 2 packs and other special offers.

Coffee Cups

We love the Bodum Pavina Double-Wall Thermo Glasses and we think you will too. This is a perfect gift for the coffee lover looking to be different and have their coffee look interesting while they drink it.

Coffee Accessories

How can you go wrong with the BonJour Primo Latte Frother with Stand? For less than $30 bucks, you can have your milk frothed and enjoy a little more texture in your single serve coffee.

We also really like the Aeroccino Automatic Milk frother from Nespresso. It works and works well. You simply pour the milk in and hit the button, and in less than a minute, you have nice hot frothed milk.

Review: Solofill Cup Refillable Single Serve Coffee Filter for Keurig Brewers

Review Single Serve Coffeesolofill_packaging.jpg

The Solofill Cup Refillable Single Serve Coffee Filter for Keurig Brewers is like the My K-Cup reusable filter or EZ Cup that allows you to use your own coffee instead of using just K-Cups. Using the Solofill is really easy, because unlike the My K-Cup reusable coffee filter, you do not have to take out the brew sleeve in your Keurig brewer. Like a K-Cup the Solofill Cup Refillable Single Serve Coffee Filter for Keurig Brewers fits in the brew slot where you’d normally put a K-Cup.

Key Features of the Solofill Cup:

No need to remove or swap out the filter holder.No filter to replace!Reusable – Environmentally friendly.Save money while reducing our environmental impact!Use your own favorite gourmet coffee.Easy to use – Simple 2 steps process.Innovative Octaflo-Plus hot water distribution system for a superior tasting cup of gourmet coffee.Easy clean up – Unique one piece design with integrated hinged lid and stainless steel micro mesh filter for easy clean-up.Brewing a Cup of Coffee with the Solofill Refillable Single Serve Coffee Filter

We’ve been using the Solofill over the past 3 weeks, and right away we found the Solofill Cup Refillable Single Serve Coffee Filter for Keurig Brewers is easy to use and makes a great cup of coffee. We also really liked hot easy the flip top-lid was to open and close, along with it being attached. No more lost lids, and the color being red is also excellent as we didn’t throw it away because we were used to throwing away K-cups.

Brewing a cup of coffee using your Keurig brewer was very easy. You simply open the flip top of the Solofill, fill with your favorite coffee, close the lid, and put it in the Keurig brewer K-Cup slot. The lid is self tamping, so all you need to do is close it and you’re good to go. Next you’ll have a pretty amazing cup of coffee using your own coffee.

Before filling you have an empty brew sleeve. 41YMlsMtPjL._SL500_AA300_.jpg
Fill with your favorite coffee. We’d use our own shot but taking
a picture with two hands filled is challenging. :-) IMG_8392.jpg
Insert into the Keurig brewer K-Cup slot. IMG_8395.jpg
Brew and enjoy your cup of Solofill filtered coffee.

We found different grinds to produce better results – the finer grinds tended to work the best with the darker roasts. We settled in a on a French Roast from our local Whole Foods and found the coffee tasted amazing. We did a side by side comparison using our Aeropress, and found the coffee to be on par with the Aeropress coming out ahead.

The Solofill Cup Refillable Single Serve Coffee Filter for Keurig Brewers has an “octoflow” path that the water flows over the beans. The extraction is produces is excellent, even resulting in a little coffee froth at the end (not froth or crema but good stuff). We also found after brewing clean up was a breeze. Simply pop open the top, and wash out the grinds.

Trying Coffee Pods in the Solofill Refillable Single Serve Coffee Filter

We did try puncturing a coffee pod and using it in the Solofill. Results were mixed but dumping out the contents of a coffee pod did produce good results, however this defeats the purpose. If you’re going to attempt to use a coffee pod stick in the 7-9gram range and puncture it at the top so the water can brew through. As with everything you try – try again and you’ll get better results as you figure out what works with the pods you have. The Solofill however is made to work with ground coffee, not punctured coffee pods but it was worth a try.

Conclusions

We really love this little gadget for our Keurig brewer. Like the My K-Cup Reusable Filter, and the EZ Cup it allows you to use either ground coffee or coffee pods in your Keurig brewer. We think if you like having a little experimentation in your single serve coffee life, then you’ll enjoy the Solofill Refillable Single Serve Coffee filter.

Thanks again to Robert from Solofill for sending us the Solofill to review.

I’ve found the Solofill to be far superior to the MyKCup – less hassle since you don’t have to remove the insert and screw around with a separate filter basket. It’s superior to the E-Z cup too – with the cost of the E-Z Cup filters, you might as well buy the regular K-Cups. Solofill is nice if the flavour doesn’t exist in a K-cup or you have extra time. From a time standpoint, or if you’re pumping out multiple cups for a crowd, processed K-Cups are still the most convenient. Then again, if the price keeps creeping up, you’ve got an awesome second option with the Solofill.
Posted by: Purcell at December 10, 2010 1:11 PM Will this also work in the Cusinart SS770?
Posted by: Geoffrey Chambers at December 12, 2010 11:15 AM Your picture shows the Cuisinart Brewer using this SoloFill, but both Amazon’s page and the SoloFill site say that this is not compatible w/ the Cuisinart. I had this ordered from Amazon but cancelled the order because I was afraid it wasn’t going to work in our machine? Can you confirm it does work with the Cuisinart?
Posted by: Rebecca at December 12, 2010 1:53 PM I am using the solofill without any problems in my cuisinart brewer. Not sure which model my brewer is, but it looks just like the one in the photograph and was purchased from costco last month.
Posted by: Jon Clayton at December 16, 2010 8:45 AM K-cups are punctured on their bottom by the coffee machine. How does this not damage the coffee maker. What happens to the bottom spike when this is put in the machine.
Posted by: Donna at December 18, 2010 12:39 AM I received both a Cuisinart SS770 Brewing System and a SoloFill Cup for Christmas and I love them both! I was experimenting and used the SoloFill to brew iced tea using Lipton tea bags. I cut open and emptied out the contents of the bags into the SoloFill cup. It worked perfectly! The only issue I have (and this is probably why SoloFill does not specifically list the cups as compatible with Cuisinart SS770s) is that the head of the machine does not close/lower fully. The machine thinks that the head is closed though, as the screen reads “Ready”. I checked the fit to make sure that it is not putting any stress on the top or bottom needles, as I was afraid of damaging them, but I really don’t think the SoloFill is coming into contact with either of them. I think what is preventing the head from closing all the way is that diameter of the hole in the top of the SoloFill cup is not large enough to accommodate the diameter of the rubbery gasket around the upper needle of the machine.
Posted by: Laura at December 26, 2010 5:16 PM Looking forward to receiving one of these, as Keurig’s own MyKCup was a complete disaster and I have returned mine. I should not have to jerryrig the KCup as your other readers have suggested elsewhere.
Posted by: LAprGuy at December 28, 2010 12:51 PM Tried to order one direct from their webpage and it was out of stock until 1/3. Ordered from Amazon and it won’t arrive until 1/31-2/6. Whoever is producing these needs a larger operation. High demand and no supply. I can go buy a “my k-cup” at any BB and B or Best Buy today. All that said, there must be a reason why they’re selling out and this is the only product of it’s type I’ve seen with all positive reviews and no catastrophic defects.

What Coffee Grinders Can Do For You And Your Home

The coffee grinder is a wonderful tool to have as one of your kitchen appliances for a number of reasons including the fact that it provides fresh coffee, it provides a wonderful aroma to your kitchen, and it can help make your kitchen feel a little more homey.  It is these benefits that make the coffee grinder a popular item in the small kitchen appliances section of the department store.

When you grind your own coffee beans, you can’t help but realize the freshness that is created when you take that first drink of coffee after brewing a fresh pot of coffee from those grounds.  When you grind your own coffee beans, you are releasing the flavors that have been packed inside the bean since it began growing.  This is how the great taste of coffee is achieved when the coffee is brewed.  

Another great benefit of the coffee grinder is the aroma that is released when you grind your own coffee beans.  Many don’t realize it but the aroma can be stronger than if you simply buy the grounds from the store.  The reason for this fact is that the smells of the coffee have been locked inside the bean since it began growing and are stronger at the initial point of when the grinding takes place.  So the result of the grinding process is not just fresh coffee grounds, but a wonderful aroma of fresh coffee that spreads throughout your kitchen and surrounding rooms.

When you walk into your kitchen, do you get the feeling of home or does it feel like just another room in the house?  Coffee grinders can help you achieve this feeling by providing the aromas that you were used to smelling when you were a kid.  They can help give a comforting feeling of being in your own safe environment and having the unique smells that are produced by cooking and other activities can reinforce this feeling.

When it comes to coffee grinders, there are many benefits that come along with these great little appliances that you can experience if you were to purchase one.  Hopefully you’ve consider the idea of having this tool in your kitchen so you can enjoy the benefits for many years to come.

One thing that is common among coffee drinkers is the search for perfection. It is not just important that you get to have coffee first thing in the morning, but the features must be just right for what you need and for the taste that you are craving for. It is thus fitting that you get the best coffee machine that will suit your taste and your budget.

Do You Need a Grinder?

Those who really demand the best coffee there is often would resort to grinding their own coffee. Grinding coffee will allow a level of control to the final flavor. This is especially important for people who want to have the best espresso.

However, if you can live with ground coffee available in the supermarket, then you can forego those coffee machines that offer a grounding component.

Coffee machine versus Coffee Maker

A lot may get confused about this. After all, isn’t a coffee machine essentially a coffee maker? The answer is no.

A standard drip coffee maker can only make one thing: a good brewed coffee. On the other hand, a coffee machine will allow an owner to create a myriad of other coffee drinks.

The processes of most coffee machines are automated and will only require the steady supply of ground coffee, water, and maybe even milk. Should you only require a perfect brew of coffee, then you can stick with a coffee maker and save money. However, if you need more variety in your coffee drinks throughout the day, then a coffee machine is a good investment.

What Coffee Do You Drink?

Other than brewed coffee, what else do you often drink? The other types may be espresso, cappuccino, and even latte. Knowing what coffee drink you consume the most will determine the coffee machine that you would need.

Essentially, it should be able to create a good espresso base and then have the mechanism to store or heat milk and perhaps steam it. Take note, though, that if you want your coffee machine to make more types of coffee, then you should be ready to pay more, since these machines would turn out to be more expensive.

Should You Consider an Espresso Maker Too?

Aside from generating the necessary pressure to create espresso, most espresso makers can be made to do more. The wand where the espresso comes out can actually heat or steam milk. Simply submerge the wand in milk, and the heat and steam will do the trick. If you don’t care for a bit of manual work, you might save a lot by opting to just get an espresso maker.

The Great Benefits Of Using A Coffee Grinder

Edit Article |

The coffee grinder has been helping people make fresh coffee for many years and will continue to do so for years to come.  When you think about making coffee, do you also include the idea of first making your own coffee grounds from coffee beans that were purchased at the store?  Chances are you have thought about doing so but just never really made the effort to try it for yourself.  The truth is, coffee grinders are very beneficial for a number of reasons including cost efficiency and freshness.

One of the most important benefits that many are taking advantage of buy using coffee grinders is the fact that there is a potential to save a lot of money by grinding your own coffee beans instead of purchasing coffee grounds from the store.  When you buy coffee grounds from the store, part of the price that you are paying includes the cost of having someone grind the beans for you in order to pack them into individual coffee ground packages.  If you eliminate this process by grinding the beans yourself, you eliminate that extra cost.  You will incur some cost on the front end when you purchase a coffee bean grinder, but you will recoup that cost after a short period of time.  The savings provided by grinding your own beans can add up dramatically and will definitely help you out in the long run.

The other major benefit of grinding your own coffee beans is the high level of freshness that you are able to enjoy.  When you buy coffee grounds from the grocery store, you are buying grounds that have been pre packed and stored on a shelf for sale.  The problem exists because you have no control and no idea how long those grounds have been sitting on the shelf.  Each day that goes by presents more opportunity for the freshness of the grounds to be lost.  When coffee remains in the form of a bean, then there is little freshness lost because it is locked into that form.  When you grind your own coffee beans, you are essentially releasing that freshness at that very moment, so you are achieving the maximum amount of freshness possible for your coffee.

When it comes to drinking coffee, what would you rather have, fresh coffee at a lower price, or not so fresh coffee at a more expensive price?  The correct answer seems to be pretty obvious but the fact of the matter is that most people are more concerned about convenience rather than freshness.  This is why buying grounds from the store rather than grinding your own coffee beans is more popular.  If you’re looking for fresher coffee and are willing to put in a little extra effort to get it, then you will have no problem with the idea of grinding your own coffee beans.  Plus, you’ll save money doing so which is always a great benefit.

It is easy to make an espresso. To make espresso, you will need to have a good Espresso Coffee Makers. There are many espresso machines in the market but not all of them are right espresso machines in the true sense of the word. A high-quality contemporary espresso machine must be able to make high pressures of at least 9BAR or atmospheres or 135 pounds per square inch pressure to push water through a very finely ground, compressed bed of coffee.

There are lots of cheaper espresso machines in the market that rely exclusively on steam pressure to push water through the ground coffee. Steam pressure can only produce 1.5BAR or 50 pounds per square inch pressure at best. At this level, it will not make the exact crema that a pump-driven or lever-operated espresso machine will produce. These machines are generally sold for under in chief department stores and frequently come with a 4-cup carafe. A steam-driven “espresso machine” will also give you excellent coffee when used properly, but will never give you a good espresso.

While espresso has more caffeine per unit volume of most beverages, compared on the basis of usual serving sizes, a 30 ml or 1 fluid ounce solo espresso has about half the caffeine of a standard 180ml or 6 fluid ounce cup of drip brewed coffee, which is anywhere from 80 to 130mg.

Our goal is to let you know how to make coffee and to help you explore coffee.  Espresso is one of the most popular and lovable types of coffee.  Hopefully this article helped you to know what actually espresso coffee is.

Used Coffee Machines

More and more businesses are installing office coffee machines with a view to increasing productivity. Installing such machines at the workplace is a gesture of goodwill to your employees to show that you care and what better way than to take care of their caffeine. They are able to get a good cup of coffee without leaving the workplace and it boosts their morale.

A very interesting point that has been brought out in a survey relates to the networking that occurs in such an environment. The discussion near the coffee dispenser invariably veers to work related issues rather than inane gossip. Such discussions improve productivity and boost work output.

An ideal coffee machine would be an office coffee machine that does not cost too much, whether it’s bought or rented. Or perhaps you could make a deal with some coffee house  the free use of their coffee machine in return for the use of their products. Either way, it would cost you something. Evaluate all options and calculate the cost to see which suits you the best.

Evaluate the coffee needs and expertise of your staff. Expertise here refers to the expertise in the correct handling of coffee machine. Misusing or badly handling a coffee machine and the products it dispenses can lead to its break down, ultimately costing more.

Another option is to buy used coffee machines. There are a lot of used machines available in the market in excellent condition or perhaps with a little damage. Once you have evaluated and assessed your needs, you need to now shop for one. Restaurants, call centers, BPOs  all sell their used coffee machines . The trick is to keep a look out for one. Many small firms specialise in selling refurbished coffee machines that are as good as new.

It all finally comes down to the size of your business, your budget and the kind of office coffee machine that the organization requires. While a used coffee machine would undoubtedly cost less, the quality of coffee is as good as a new machine. But the point to remember is that it is not for the use of everyone. It requires expert handling.
