Ah... okay. You said plastic reusable ones which maybe implies that the single use ones are not plastic? So maybe recycleable? Cool if so but just out of interest how much does the average single use one cost and how many cups of coffee do you get out of it? Mind you I guess maybe another factor is some people are more willing to eat or drink out... in coffee shops and the like... so if you're used to paying for individual cups of coffee, I guess it's not much of a culture shock to buy them singly in the form of a single use K-Cup/pod.
The little disposable k-cups run from ~ $.50 to $.70 each, depending on manufacturer and flavor. The cup that can be used to put one's own coffee grounds in comes with the machine. It's a pulsing hemorrhoid to clean and an incredible waste of water for people like me who live in the (irrigated) California desert. You have to be careful with the supply tank, too. Years ago, I had been feeling like crap for weeks, and then I noticed that black mold was growing in that tank.
I never used it again. It still sits on the counter, because the wife can't bring herself to throw anything out, and if I do, I catch hell for it. We are renting a storage facility for my mother in law's possessions after we moved her in with us. I'm thinking that I'll put it in storage, from which it will "mysteriously" disappear. :nods:
