I recently bought an 80 count box of Newman's Own extra Bold (a good buy at BJ's @ less than .50 a cup). I enjoy it very much. I also like Kona, Sumatran Reserve, Black Magic, Double Black Diamond and Espresso Blend.

I recently got all my coffee through Kohl's with a 30% off coupon and the Kohl's cash. They have a good selection online.

My work just purchased a Keurig machine for the office. I generally drink Espresso but it isn't easily available at work LOL. So I'm going to pick up some Kcups to try 'em out. I don't use sugar or cream in my coffee so I love full flavored cups of coffee. I will try out some of the ones recommended in the thread. However, are there any specific rec's for someone who generally only drinks Espresso?

Thx

I too enjoy a strong cup of coffee with no cream or sugar. The Green Mountain Espresso Blend fits the bill for me.

I use to buy K-cups until I started buying my coffee from a friend who roast his own beans. I bought the screen kit for my Kuerig. I tried it with regular coffee and it didn't seem to work well. With my friends home roasted blend it works perfect, I think because it is a bit more coarse. Now that's all I use.

The style I use:

This style might even be better?:

This is a great thread guys. My wife and I are planning to get a Kuerig because she is switching to decaff and we only drink one or two cups a day. This will help us with blends to try and places to get them.:-)

I bought two of these off Amazon a month or so ago. They work awesome. Easy to fill, not bad to clean and I think you get a better tasting coffee than the normal k-cups. Plus you can use whatever coffee you like.

That's my experience as well. The finer grinds just seem to get pushed out of the way with the water pressure. The coarse grinds seem to stay in place and allow the water to mix better.
I think that aftermarket red one above might fix that problem as it appears to fan the water flow out more.

I have tried a lot of different K-Cups, I mean a lot and the ones I like best for consistent richness of flavor are:

Newman's - Own Organic Extra Bold
Coffee People - Donut Shop
Coffee People - Kona Blend
Wolf Gang Puck - Breakfast in Bed
Tulley - Kona Blend (I've been told and have read that this is discontinued)

Caribou blends
Lake and Lodge
Mountain Blueberry
Kona blend, I was told that green mountain wasn't going to be making it, but I still see it in stores!

These are my rotation, also Donut House is a great coffee, my favorite right now is the Caribou Daybreak Coffee, if you want bold go with lak and lodge or Kona!

I would suggest Green Mountain Dark Magic, FTO Espresso and Double Black Diamond for the dark and intense flavor that you are seeking.
