We utilize a Keurig at the office. I like my coffee fairly strong and routinely drink Black Silk. Was getting low, but saw there were several boxes of cups there on a shelf. Consumed the last of the Black Silk and imagine my utter horror when I determined the three remaining boxes of coffee were hazelnut, french vanilla and pecan something or other other.
It's not like we are a hair salon. No, Superduty does not work here. I is going to have a lil' talk with somebody.

A Keurig does not make great coffee. Mostly though, that’s what I use, with Community Breakfast Blend. But, in the barn workshop I have a great Cuisinart coffee maker and ground Community Breakfast Blend. The coffee from the barn workshop machine is very noticeably better than the Keurig coffee.
Back when I was working at that last corporation, I ran Purchasing for the Americas. My people and I were in charge of supply of just about everything a huge corporation needs, and that included things as small as coffee. Each plant site could choose their own coffee, so the coffee decision for headquarters was all the coffee we needed to worry about. We had a contract for supply and service of machines and the coffee, and I had a VP that constantly complained about our coffee. Soooo, to shut him up, I got our contract supplier to come into the office with a bunch of their better grades of coffee, and we’d do a blind taste test. The whole building got to vote on which was best. The VP was raving about how good coffee number 3 was, and most everybody agreed, so I said we’d go with that one. Everybody was happy. What I didn’t tell them was that it was the same danged coffee they had been drinking (for free). And, of course, I could now fight off any complaints by saying that this was the chosen coffee, not the low bid coffee.
Not my monkeys, not my circus...

I may or may not have tossed one of these in a box of French Vanilla cups before I left work the other day.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

Have a Kuerig also. One time we ran out of my Sumatra or Breakfast Blend and all that was left was Hazlenut, I drove to McDonalds to get a cup of their regular coffee to survive that morning.

I can't stand those instant brew cups or machines. I like good old brewed in a pot over grounds....not dust....

We have a reusable k-cup and grind our own. Some days its Komodo Dragon dark brew and someday's its Texas Pecan from HEB.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

I started drinking coffee with my Opie when I was in grade school growing up. We spent a lot of time working with him during the summers and breakfast was either corn flakes or cherioes, a banana, and a cup of black coffee. I cant stand flavored coffee or creamer/sugar etc.
I use one of the little reusable filter things in my kuerig and use HEB columbian grounds.
