Been playing with wife’s Keurig coffee maker . Have tried the ones they claim to be zip coffee , but so far not impressed . Have tried most that claim 1.5 times the caffeine . Death Wish , Black Rifle BB , but seems they just ain’t got the punch . Anybody here got a favorite ?

Get one of them little wire baskets that you fill with your own blend.
I like various blends of African coffee.

Have tried that , wife drinks it and maxwell house . Good coffee , just not that one cup zip . Monday mornings I get up at three and drive two hours to work , some mondays I need that zip to keep the eyes open .
After that the rest of the week is a breeze .

Kenneth The Keurig my wife brought home has an expresso button. If you're looking for "zip",...knock back a triple shot of expresso. It's not like honkin' up a line of crank,...but it doesn't miss it by much.

Folgers for me. We were given a Keurig a couple of years ago but hated it. Could not get the taste of plastic put of it. Every cup tasted like plastic. Gave it away stick to drip.

I like my coffee how I like my women.

2 k-cups of Green Mt. french roast in a 16 oz. insulated cup. Perfect.

I make my own blend using coffee from Strongtree roasters, a local Gainesville company. I have a Kerrigan $20 knockoff. I use the little reusable basket.

Good riddence! Why didn't you like it? It had become cranky and slow as hell, half cup sometimes, full cup other times.

A $12 french press and whatever coffee is on sale for <$4 a bag.
A cup of coffee that way costs about a nickel a cup.

I like it too. One big mug is perfect for me. Two and I get jumpy. Costco also sells San Francisco Bay French Roast that is nice and strong. Plus the cup is biodegradable.
