I know there are coffee companies that make Earth friendly K Cups too (biodegradable, compostable) so maybe you can look into those? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/reusable-k-cup-recommendationsinput#post-2906172 Tue, 17 Dec 2019 17:03:18 +0000 Corduroy 2906172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well so much for that idea. They don't make resuable cups for commercial machines. Which now that I think about it makes sense. The machine kicks the kcups into a little rubbish bin and it would be kinda gross to retrieve it from there. At least I figured that out before ordering. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/reusable-k-cup-recommendationsinput#post-2906125 Tue, 17 Dec 2019 13:20:39 +0000 MountainBaby 2906125@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use a reusable k cup and fill with grounds. Simple, easy to use, great....if you only use the keurig for coffee. Because the sides are mesh, not solid like a typical cup, I find it leaves behind a coffee taste in the dispenser that is noticeable if the person behind you makes tea. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/reusable-k-cup-recommendationsinput#post-2906121 Tue, 17 Dec 2019 13:04:20 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2906121@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have one that I just bought in the coffee aisle at the grocery store for a few bucks. It works just fine and is easy to use. </p> <p>I think you could get away with using just about any brand since they're a pretty simple concept (just my .02) :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/reusable-k-cup-recommendationsinput#post-2906119 Tue, 17 Dec 2019 11:46:32 +0000 Mrs. Cereal 2906119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use a reusable k cup and it was a cheap brand. I've had the same one for at least 5 years. It holds up well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/reusable-k-cup-recommendationsinput#post-2906118 Tue, 17 Dec 2019 11:40:59 +0000 MamaBear87 2906118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We use them. We've had a few different kinds. They all work fine. They don't improve on the coffee that Keurig coffee makers make in general unfortunately.<br /> I just knock the grounds into the trash and rinse them out. They go through a more thorough wash on occasion </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/reusable-k-cup-recommendationsinput#post-2906114 Tue, 17 Dec 2019 11:22:33 +0000 Corduroy 2906114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My office switched to using K cups but I'd like to not generate that kind of waste daily (I'm working on the office as a whole). I'm thinking about asking for a reusable k cup for Christmas. Any recommendations? Would they be easy enough to use in an office kitchen? </p>
