I love my Keurig. My favorite is Green Mountain's Sumatran Reserve. It is a very rich, dark coffee. I don't usually like flavored coffee. But, I had one the other night at work that was a Raspberry chocolate (don't remember the brand) that was delicious as a "dessert" coffee.

My husb drinks some green mtn coffee - I'm a bold coffee girl. I drink Jet Fuel & Black Tiger K-cups. I also use those do-it-yourself k-cup thingies I told you about, and use some of the local coffees I find on sale. I DO live in the coffee capitol of the world, so there are always new ones to try.;)
I've also been using a cold brew system to make concentrated coffee to keep in the fridge for my iced coffee (with some condensed sweet milk). Soo yummy. No wonder I can't get to sleep til 2am!!

I'll have to try that Sumatran reserve on my next order. I just placed one today, so it'll be awhile. I did try their "Revv" and it was OK. Do you order yours online? They were $2 off per box this week (plus the member's discount).

I think I'll need to leave now, cuz it's almost time to go watch the Daily Show with hubs. Perhaps play a round of back gammon too. Exciting life around here!

Hey!!! it's my K Cup Kuties!!!!

I didn't know you had a Keurig TG! Aren't they great?

I like bold too and I have found one that is the best one, I buy 3 boxes at a time! thanks for reminding me of the sale TV, I need to stock up!

The one I get is Wolfgang Puck Sorrento. Try it, I guarantee you will like it. Very strong, yet very smooth! Absolutely the very best and I have done the Jet Fuel, Black Tiger and all the other strong ones!

TV, I just got an Ego Twist. It is a great PV. It has a dial that lets you turn up the voltage to 4.8. I keep it around 4.2 and it works great. I got a 1000 mah for under $30!
If you like an Ego, you would love this!

I haven't broken down and bought a BP yet. I am worried about the kind of draw I would get from it. I am used to the ego and Riva draw and when I tried the E Power, I just couldnt get it right. Just too airy. I worry that a BP or other VV or VW would be the same! Oh Well! one of these days I guess I will try it and if I dont like it, I could probably sell it somewhere even though my member is not verified! Whatever that means!

Anyone who hasn't tried Emeril's Big Easy Bold should immediately do so. You will thank me. Also like Tully's Italian Roast and Newman's Own Extra Bold.

kgj, tried them all! I still go back to the Wolfgang Puck. I stayed at a hotel last year that had a Keurig in the room, and they had the Emeril's for it. I was always told that the accessories, like shampoo and lotion, that hotels leave for you are yours to keep so I kept the extra K cups they left for me. On the last day, housekeeping gave me a bag of them to bring home! I think I ended up with over 30 of them. It's good and strong, but the Sorrento tasted better while still strong!

What's to wonder about. Simply put, ask anyone that has a VV if they would ever go back to 3.7 fixed batteries.

What i wonder about is if the $100+ is worth it when i'm satisfied with what i have. I believe that it would be a great vape but I have no problem with what i have. If i tried one it would be a different game but i haven't.

May I suggest the Provari mini. DW sure fell in love with it yesterday and she was the same way, "no I don't want one, I'm happy with what I have". But ask her today. It was only 185 bucks with 2 batteries. (already have the charger). In some states that's less than 2 cartons of analogs.

If you're wondering, are you really satisfied?

Or do you think you might be missing out on something - just that old curiosity thing?

And what's a hundred+ bucks in the big scheme of things? A lot, some days, I know. But not really...

Watch the classy's; you can get a used for less than that. Maybe not much less for the better ones, but possible; or you can always go the cheapy route and get one of the foreign ones flooding the market currently - just to try it.

But I'd stick with one of the big dogs...you can always vape it at 3.7 if you don't like other voltages, enjoy the true regulation and long battery life, or you can sell it...they're resale value holds strong.

Just my :2c:, Oly. :)

I went to my Chevy dealer last week and they had a Keurig in the waiting area. I tried a Green Mountain brand and it was the nastiest coffee that I have ever tasted! It was that bad! It kind of reminded me of the coffee that I had in Jamaica (shudder). It was STRONG but it was also just bad tasting. Kind of like strong but the type of strong you get from letting coffee sit on the burner all day. I got way past ever wanting a Keurig :)

Pad, I have never heard of a mod making a draw airy or tight lol That is normally more to do with the carto/atty that you use.

I spent all day with my mom taking her shopping and I am wiped out. I will try and make it back later though.
