If you're one of the many people who have trouble making it through the day without your morning cup of coffee, you likely spend a small fortune on the stuff every month. Admit it, you start every work day at the local coffee shop where you spend $4 on that cup of latte. You may not think so, but it adds up quickly. If you stop every day, that's more than $80 per month spent on coffee. Multiply that number by 12 and that's $1,000 plus a year, money that would have definitely gone to better use elsewhere.
That's not to say you should deprive yourself of the one thing that makes getting up in the morning and facing the work day bearable. You deserve that morning cup of coffee. But it's wasteful to spend so much money on it at a time when your budget is stretched thin.
More and more people are coming to this realization, which explains why sales of machines like the Keurig Single Cup Coffee Brewer are picking up. The machine is available in 3 different styles: the B40 ($99.95), B60 ($149.95) and B70 ($199.95). All 3 models feature single-cup convenience and multiple brew-sizes. The B40 is the company's basic model. The B60 and B70 feature upgrades that make the device even more convenient to use, like for example, the ability to be programmed to turn on automatically at a set time of the day.
With this machine, making specialty coffee affordably is an easy 3-step process.
1. Insert your favorite k-cup
2. Press a single button
3. Enjoy!
Hot water, under pressure, will be pushed through the K-cup into the cup or mug below. Once brewed, there are no grounds to clean up. Simply throw the used K-cup away; and the brewer is good for more than just brewing coffee. If you don't add a k-cup, your brewer is able to produce a cup of hot water for use in cooking, making soups, oatmeal, tea, hot cocoa, etc.
