Omg gross. Mr. Coffee for life

My Keurig started smoking and steaming last year. My mom keeps asking why I haven't complained (to see if they'll replace it?) and I have no desire to.

They are just unnatural!

I replaced it with a cheap Mr. Coffee and a cold brew coffee pitcher. Although I'm looking into one of those Cuban things you have.

I have a Bunn that uses k-cups or my own coffee, and it makes great coffee. It makes hotter water and brews a little slower to extract more flavor.

I recommend the Cuban espresso, it's super easy and fast and makes good, strong coffee.

Link? I'm always on the hunt for a new coffee gadgets.

I'm torn. I love my Keurig, but I hate roaches.

[sapphireblue]

I haven't heard this but got rid of mine about two years ago when I read an article about how you really can't clean the tubes and stuff inside. Grossed me out. The roaches thing is even grosser.

However, I am now about to have my second baby in March and just bought a new one. Not thrilled to have one again, but I figured with a newborn and a toddler, for a few months at least, I am going to want my coffee in the fastest and simplest way possible. It IS the easiest (I also have a cold brew thing too though)--just push a button.

I also have two dogs who are frantic in the mornings to be fed and go out so I'm just trying to simplify those mornings.

However, as soon as things settle down a bit I am going to get a different brewer that makes better coffee!

We have reusable pods for fresh grounds. I've never seen a roach in my house, and I routinely flush our Keurig with vinegar.

Are the inner workings of the Keurig really any worse than any other appliance with a warm water line?

[jlt19]

Dammit. I just bought reusable cups for mibe.

[hisno1girl]

Your co-worker has cockroaches.

They didn't just magically appear.

[RamblingRose]

I also have a Chemex and a French press. I really do like them both better, but I love my Bunn for speed.

[lilafowler]

Mofo lives in the swamp. I assume roaches are everywhere down there.

[greenlight]

Okay. I did some googling and a couple of the articles said it's the 2.0 model that's having the problem. They think it emits a low sonic wavelength that's attracting the roaches.
So my vue model should be fine, right?

RIGHT?!

No, she'd never used it, doesn't have bugs.

OF COURSE she's doesn't have them Roaches can infest the machine even if the box wasn't opened.

I feel like a Roach could crawl in my Nespresso, Mr Coffeemaker, toaster, bread maker, my oven warming drawer, cabinets, etc. as well. They can go anywhere. But luckily I've never seen a roach ever in or around my house so not too worried about it. I do have a Keurig but it in my basement for the kids to use for hot apple cider & cocoa & doesn't have a water reservoir--hopefully it's ok. Sorry kids. Lol.

I suspect your office break room is infested. 😕. I think I'd stay clear of food stored there period.

[bonquiqui]

I hate you and this thread. Before reading this, I just descaled my keurig and WAS looking forward to a cup of coffee in the morning.

[bonquiqui]

Wouldn't I see evidence of roaches? The tank is see through, so wouldn't I see them?

[sofamonkey]

Oh, there's horrific videos of ant infestations of ants in kuerigs too. I'm not googling that shit for you. It's as bad as you think. ::barf::

ETA I changed my mind. Here ya go.

NO!!! It's the inside part that you can't see.

So none of these bugs ever come out? I'm high on my cough medicine now, so hopefully I won't remember this convo tomorrow
