Keurig My K-Cup Reusable Coffee Filter

Won't use this filter system again. It came with the Keuriq, from QVC. Not worth a penny.

This device is great. It turns a normal Keurig into a more environmentally friendly device by creating a more reusable filter option so that you don't waste plastic k-cups with every use. Two tips for optimal brewing I found on the internet and combined were: 1) to add an old plastic k-cup to the assemblage after removing foil and paper filter to slow down the brew and make stronger coffee and 2) to add a slice off a wine cork with a hole in the top to the top of the plastic cap so you create a tighter seal to prevent overflow of water.

The Reusable K-Cup is a very good, affordable alternative to the one-cup disposable K-Cups. We enjoy it because we can use our favorite coffees that aren't available in K-Cups, like some Starbucks brews or other gourmet coffees we enjoy! Ours came with our Cuisinart machine made for Keurig and has been invaluable thus far! No issues with breaking like others have mentioned... and we use it often!

Tip: The Reusable K-Cup doesn't usually brew as strong of a cup as the disposables. But, we buy coffee beans to grind and find that grinding the coffee superfine (espresso setting) and filling the K-Cup with that brews a satisfying cup!

Yes..it drips some water (not coffee), but it is no big deal. About to try the solutions mentioned here. Thanks for the tips!

As another reviewer has posted the water leaking problem with the reusable filters is easily solved. Get a small 1/2" or so fiber or plastic washer with a hole size that fits over the needle in the Keurig brewer. 1/16" thickness or a little less is good. Slip the rubber sealing washer off of the brewer needle (found in the top with the brewer open). Slide the fiber washer over the needle and then put the original rubber seal back over the needle. Don't worry if the rubber sits slightly over the slots in the needle. When the brewer is closed on the reusable filter the rubber is depressed to make the seal and fully exposes the slots. Works perfectly and no more water leaks. The coffee gets more thoroughly soaked with water and brews a better cup. I use just regular Maxwell house coffee and it works fine. It seems to work fine using the K-cups as well.
