If you go by the growing sales of such top of the line single cup brewing systems as Keurig, single cup coffee brewing systems have taken the home market by storm. Keurig's K-cup system is easily the most popular out of the new line of single cup brewers. Unlike many of the other single cup systems that use ‘pods' - little more than drip coffee makers designed to make one cup of coffee at a time - the K-cup system uses a patented K-cup that is essentially a tiny coffee brewer complete with filter and basket in a convenient, disposable packet.
What makes Keurig so much more popular than other brands? The biggest draw for many who've chosen Keurig is the variety of coffees available in K-cups. With dozens of Green Mountain Coffee blends available in K-cups, Keurig offers many more choices in pre-packaged cups than most other single cup brewing systems. The Keurig system offers variety, convenience and great flavor. With all that, what else could you possibly want?
How about a nifty carousel to keep those K-cups neat, organized and easy to reach? That is just one of the great accessories that are designed to complement your Keurig single cup brewing system. Here are some of the best and most useful accessories to use with your Keurig single cup system.
K-cup Storage and Display
Keurig offers three different options for storing and displaying your selection of K-cups. No more rummaging in the cabinet or the box, trying to find the right blend when you have one of these tasteful, decorative K-cup holders.
K-cup Carousel
The K-cup carousel is an attractive chrome-plated lazy Susan that is designed to hold up to 27 K-cups. The compact design minimizes the counter space needed while allowing you to keep a selection of coffees, teas and hot chocolate drinks within easy reach. Just ten inches high and eight inches in diameter, it easily fits on nearly any kitchen cabinet shelf, and the under $20 price tag makes it an economical way to help keep your cabinet organized.
K-cup Rack
You can mount the K-cup rack on the wall, or stand it on a counter in one of two handy sizes. The attractively designed racks are designed to hold either four or eight 25-packs of Keurig K-cups, keeping them at hand and easy to find. The four pack holder is fitted with a single section condiment tray to hold sugar, creamers and the like, and the eight pack holder includes a three-section condiment tray to give you additional storage space. Hang it near your K-cup brewer and create your own little coffee station at home.
The My K-cup
Love the convenience of Keurig single cup brewing, but wish you could get K-cups in your favorite coffee blend? Now you can! The My K-cup is a reusable K-cup filter assembly that you can pack with your own coffee. It's ideal for home roasters, or those who like to grind their coffee immediately before brewing, as well as for those who prefer to use their favorite brand of coffee with the Keurig single cup system. The My K-cup filter system is designed to fit Keurig home brewers, Elite B40, Ultra B50, Special Edition B60, and Platinum B70. It will not fit commercial Keurig brewers. You can also purchase reusable K-cup filter baskets for use with My K-cup in packages of two, so you've always got a spare filter on hand.
Perfect Pod Holsters
Perfect Pod is a nifty little machine that lets you make gourmet coffee pods in a variety of sizes to fit different single cup coffee systems. The Perfect Pod Holster is designed to turn any pod (55mm or larger) into a K-cup that can be used in your Keurig home brewer. Using a Perfect Pod Holster allows you to use less expensive pods in your Keurig home brewer. Combine the Holster with a Perfect Pod maker, and you can create your own pods from your favorite blends, and use them with your Keurig brewer.
The Official Keurig Travel Mug
Enjoy your Keurig on the go with a sleek and stylish Keurig coffee travel mug. Designed in stainless steel, this thermal mug will keep your coffee at the perfect temperature and let you take your coffee with you when you go. Why pay obscene coffee shop prices for so-called ‘gourmet' coffee when you can brew your own at home and carry it along. The fashionable mug is engraved with the Keurig logo, and features a handy-grip handle to make it comfortable to hold. The Keurig travel mug holds a full 16 ounces of coffee, so you've got plenty for your morning commute.
Charcoal Filter
The B100 Keurig Brewer features an optional water filter. You can purchase additional charcoal filters through the Keurig web site to keep your coffee tasting great.
