My Thoughts

I love my Keurig. It's one of those investments we bought years ago that we use almost everyday, from making coffee to tea. But it can get expensive buying the ready to made pods. Plus, I never stopped to think about all the K-Cups sitting in landfills. I would guess they could be recycled but that would take more effort than most of us have time for.

I have used in the past the plastic resuable cups but they are a pain to clean and sometimes kept the flavor to specialty coffees in their filter, so I was excited to give Simple Cups 2.0 a try because each cup of coffee gets its own filter. At first glance, I wasn't sure how well it would work because it seemed like it would be hard for the water to get through the filter, but I was very surprised. It did a really good job and the coffee it brewed tasted good.

I then tossed the used filter in the trash, and it was nice since it was biodegradable, that I knew I wasn't adding another plastic K-Cup to the landfill. The pack does come with 2 cups to brew, so you can get them prepared ahead of time if you'd like. On the package, it states it works with the original Keurig and Keurig 2.0. I can only vouch for the original at this time.

I think Simple Cups 2.0 is an awesome product, and I'm really glad that I got the chance to give it a try.
