So, Special K, I'm dog sitting right now for my boss. Over hear early in the AM, and it's cold. They have a Keurig machine, so I use it, and I'm reminded of why I don't like it. Even when I push the "large" coffee button, you don't get all that much coffee. I mean, I dug out the big coffee cup because I wanted a big cup of coffee. Not a half full (see, I'm still optimistic) cup of coffee. It wasn't even that big of a coffee cup (nowhere near travel mug size). Oh, and the flavor was Gloria Jean's Hazelnut. Not bad.
So, you lose.
It was really an awesome response.

I wrote this amazingly funny response. As is usual with me, it was rather wordy. If you take too long to craft a response this stupid site now logs you out automatically and when you hit "Sumit Reply" you are taken to the Log-In screen and all that you wrote is lost.

I too have a Keurig and I couldn't agree more. I do like having a variety of flavors to choose from, but the quantity sucks. I only use my Keurig during the week and it fills my travel mug almost 3/4 of the way for my commute to work. I do like the convenience of it all to some extent, but then again, having a delay brew coffee machine is almost as convenient, if I didn't have to clean out the filter, dump the left over, etc. On the weekends I use my good ole' coffee maker and have as many cups as I like. Burning thru those little Keurig cups would add up $$$ real quick.

Try the Kona extra bold k-kups. That stuff has me bouncing my legs in my chair for a few hours after I get to my office. I'll have to try those Folger k-kups, I didn't know they made those.

here's the non humorous reader's digest condensed version that will answer all y'alls concerns about the Keurig not dispensing enough coffee and the coffee being weak.
Most Keurigs have three buttons. One for a small cup, one for a medium cup, one for a large.
The more water you run thru a cup the more diluted the coffee will be.
NEVER EVER press the "large" cup button. At most, use the medium.
Never ever use a cup more than once.
Size of drinks is relative. Pressing "large" on a Keurig does not mean it will fill a 185 oz. donut shop/convenience store size XXXL cup.
If you have a travel mug, and you want to fill it up, use multiple kcups pressing either the small or medium button on the brewer.
Yes, it's more expensive that way. Yes, it's worth it.
Get the extra bold coffees. Emeril's Big Easy Bold, Timothy's Parisian Nights, Green Mountain Extra Bold Espresso. (I can't imagine the Folgers Gormet cup will be any good, but let me know)

I'd love to see what they looked like, n share some of my recent stuff, but the ability to PM you seems to be missing

Good heavens, absolutely not!
Is it snobbery to desire the finer things in life, say, an excellent tasting coffee which is presented in a manner that such a beverage requires?
I say NOT!
Really now, "Dunking Doughnuts"? What on Earth is that?
What's that you say? It's a doughnut shoppe?
My word, who goes such places?
No, no, no. My coffee is delivered by my man, Godfrey. Which reminds me . . .
rings bell
"Godfrey, fetch me another espresso Italiano. Straight away!"
Cheers, my good man.
