I'm right on schedule... adopting new technology nearly a decade after its been introduced. Wondering what results/feedback you fine folks may have with the Kuerig system. 1.0 vs 2.0 models?
Thanks in advance
The 2.0 has a couple of differences - most cosmetic. It will allow a larger pod to actually brew a mini-carafe of coffee (I think 4 X 8 oz cups) ....I'm right on schedule... adopting new technology nearly a decade after its been introduced.

With that being said, the 2.0 has a built in DRM system that will only allow "Keurig Approved" (ie brands they co-pack) to brew. The DRM system is activated by a light pink band that outlines the outer diameter of the k-cup lid. What this means is that certain brands of coffee, or generic type coffee K-Cups, will not work on the 2.0. There is a work around for the DRM - https://www.gourmet-coffee.com/Freedom-Clip.html
The 1.0 will brew all single cup k-cup pods, even the generics. There are some brands of coffee using a mesh type capsule. This alows more coffee to be packed into the capsule, which will give a heartier cup.
The Keurig K-Cup offers great convenience. I have one for when I need a quick cup. My favorite K-Cups are Peet's (they are more expensive - you need to check the number of k-cups per box - some are 10, others 12 etc).
True coffee affociandos however will find that due to the limited coffee throw in most K-cups, that the overall quality is OK, but will not reach the quality you see with a quality drip brewer (like a MoccaMaster: http://www.moccamaster.com/us/) or extract when using a French Press.
I do a tremendous amount of consulting work for the coffee industry.... Food Science degree from PSU...Do you work for Kuerig in their sales department? That was quite the info.

Here's my contribution. An article from yahoo entitled "23 K-Cups Ranked By a World Class Barista". I have it saved in my favorites.

Bought my mother one for Christmas last year then bought my wife one after she saw my moms.
we have one in the break room at work. I am a huge coffee drinker, and this machine is considered mission critical for me on Sunday mornings.
I enjoy the convenience but . . . I've yet to find a brand that tastes as good as what I make at home with my regular coffee maker. I hate the Starbucks brand, very bland. Donut Shop is pretty good.
try Green Mt.Dark Magic or Emirils Bold
we get green mt courtesy of the office, if anything I prefer their breakfast blend. I'll have to try Emirils Bold . . .
This is an outstanding link. Wife and I had one of these at your rental on Cape Code last month and I went with Dunkin Donuts which was pretty good. I'm just so sick and tired of filter and coffee grains. Plus I am drinking more coffee at night and a single cup solution is appealing.
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THE EXCELLENT INPUT.
I have a Keurig Platinum model and love it. I live alone and the convenience of making one cup at a time, plus the varied products you can buyI'm right on schedule... adopting new technology nearly a decade after its been introduced.
