When it's done, just hold the K-cup holder over the waste basket, give it a shake and gravity will make sure the rolled up grounds and filter fall out cleanly leaving no grounds of any sort. C'mon people, this machine is simply dispensing one cup per use, and nothing is preventing you from using the old filters or causing you to make the process more expensive or difficult than before.
This is about as simple and easy as it will ever be unless you can get someone else to do it for you and it works every time. The primary disadvantage of a lot of the ideas posted on here and elsewhere is that they can actually mess up your expensive machine and possibly cause some minor health issues by allowing grounds to go back up into the top of the machine where they sit, collecting bacteria, effecting the flavor of the brew and reducing the flow of water. Even the K-cups that you purchase from Keurig can add to this problem because there is no filter keeping them from being drawn up into the tubing.
This is caused by the fact that as the needle is resting in coffee and floating grounds just before the water stops being pumped into the K-cup. When the pump stops, there is a natural occurrence of a vacuum as the water draws back up into the tubing.
Of course, any grounds that are floating in the coffee near the needle are sucked back into the tubing also. This is a problem that wasn't addressed by the engineers who designed the Keurigs, and I think it should have been addressed well before now, probably by a good ol' law suit. Maybe someone can make an instructable for filing a class action suite? By the way, why does the spellchecker for this site give an error for the name of the site? Can't you just add it to the spellchecker for future reference?
I mean, you seem to have spent extra time to add the fancy text enhancement feature, so why not rectify this minor, but annoying detail?
I left out the fact that I make an extra hole, straight across in the used k-cup so the filter is used instead of the fine grinds going down the needle tube. The needle sticks through the paper filter. Have a Great Day, Jerry. The Melitta single serve coffee filters for Javajig work great with this system.
I got mine at WalMart right by the coffee. The other important factor you need to consider when buying a Solofill from Amazon is the brand. Different sellers sell different types of brands and it is important to understand each type of the brands in order to make the right decision.
High-quality and popular brands like Apple brand usually cost more compared to less popular ones. You also need to consider the functionality of a Solofill before purchasing it. The functionality of any Solofill usually depends on the specs it contains. The more sophisticated the specs are, the higher the functionality. Most customers leave feedback with regard to their experience with the different Solofill they bought from Amazon.
The reviews are always displayed on the same page where the product is located. Looking at such reviews will help you to know whether the Solofill you want to buy good or bad.
Buy on Amazon. Some of my Office co-workers have used the solofill, but it does have some sediments, oil and grime that comes with the coffee. Also it has to constantly be held, since the bottom has a nipple outlet.
I have also used the Ez-Cup with the Filters that goes along with it. So far it seems best by far. It is the quickest, considering there is no cleaning involved. The money saved with the EzCup outweighs the kcup.
If anyone does read this, try using it with the filter Lid, it actually helps for a stronger cup of coffee. I have both the EZ cup and the Solofil. I love the idea of the paper filters because the solofil does leave that sediment.
The problem is that when I use the paper filters the Keurig machine will only dribble out water and I have to run the cycle thru 3 times. The coffee is lukewarm at this point. With the regular k cups and the solofil without the paper filter the flow of water is perfect. I have tried the paper filter with the solofil and I get the same dribble. I contacted EZ cup and they told me to us the espresso grind coffee and to cut a slit in the top of the paper filter.
I have tried all this and it does not work. Is anyone else having this problem? Previous post: Certified coffee: current market share, part 2. Next post: My year in beans: All rights reserved.
