Keurig question

DH complains that the coffee is too weak. I told him to try the smaller brew size thinking it would be stronger, he says no. I told him to try dark roasts, his says still too weak. Any other suggestions to get a stronger brew or any really strong k-cups to try.
I have no clue, I drink tea and I like strong tea and think it does a fine job!

Tully's is a pretty bold coffee for my taste... He might like that. Also, try newmans.

Get a reusable K-cup and get a bolder ground blend. I find that the coffee is stronger in the reusable since you can put as much or as little grounds in it as you want.

Tx, I will tell him to try MORE grinds in the reusable K-cup. He had tried it but said still too weak. Frankly, I think he's just being a PITA b/c he didn't want one and my parents bought it for my b-day. Chat Icon He drinks Maxwell House for God's sake, not some fancy rich roast!!

Get the Barista Prima Coffeehouse k-cups. They're pretty decent (4 different blends to choose from and the only ones I get for the office). I don't care for the Keurig because of the weak coffee issue. I have a Tassimo which I find to be far superior.

San francisco bay coffees are pretty strong. Also much cheaper than most other brands!

Re: Keurig question

wow that's surprising. I never liked the keurig because I always felt the coffee was too strong. I like a light coffee. I actually use the keurig everyday now and use a breakfast blend pod or I use my own coffee grinds still in a breakfast blend. maybe he should try the starbucks pods

Maxwell house makes a bold blend its really good and strong
Traders too, I think its a Kona blend
I find them too strong but Starbucks makes a few he should check out. I could be totally wrong but I think bed bath lets you return open boxes

Re: Keurig question

my favorite k-cups for darker coffee are the Fairway brand k-cups and the barista prima.
