What pods are you using in the Nespresso machine?I haven't used the Keurig since we bought the Nespresso. Rather comical!!
A variety. Still exploring.What pods are you using in the Nespresso machine?
Yup. Peet's is good. Their Crema Scura was my favorite.A variety. Still exploring.

Nespresso seems to be winning, came with unit. But expensive.
illy makes great coffee in all other forms, but I find their Nespresso pods lackluster
Peet's. Those are good! But have not tried all varieties
Fill your own pods. Problem solved.Just no on pods.
Pods are always filled with stale coffee. (Same with canned coffee.) The reason for this is because freshly roasted coffee releases CO2 and other gases as it ages after being roasted. This is why higher end coffee comes packaged with one way valves in the sealed bags. If they didn't, then there is a risk that the bags would burst as the coffee degases. The fresher the roasted coffee, the more it degases. This means that packaged coffee in completely sealed containers like cans or pods must be "pre-staled" before it's sealed.
If I was Sam Eliot, I could just make it cowboy style and filter the grounds out with my mustache.Fill your own pods. Problem solved.
What is AM reusable holder?It's interesting.
First I will say I only drink decaf. But that does not mean I drink urinal coffee or watered down coffee.
I have mentioned I blend GOOD beans and do pour over. Works well.
So my wife wanted a Keurig. "For guests". She picked it out along with some AM reuseable holders. She purposely got the narrow unit with 5 nozzles. I forget the model name, but it was under $100. Didn't come with any pods so I ordered a couple from Bezos.
The unit arrived and we cycled it empty a few times. Not having any pods, I ground some coffee and brewed some cups. Hmmmmm.light.weak.hmmm.read.read.read.
Did a finer grind, maxed the basket and tamped it down. THAT worked. Good cup.
Been messing with it a week. It's simple, easy and straight forward.
Pods came. No. Just no. Will get into this later. Plus I will discuss my thoughts on Keurig as a whole.
Aftermarket- there are multiple brandsWhat is AM reusable holder?
I look forward to your comments. I've been using Nespresso machines and pods for several years and find them acceptable for a quick afternoon pick-me-up but somewhat lacking when I want a "real" cup, such as my morning jolt. The pod machines are also nice when guests stop by.Pods came. No. Just no. Will get into this later. Plus I will discuss my thoughts on Keurig as a whole.

The pods are leftovers from what goes in bags and cans of ground coffee. Floor sweepings.Just no on pods.

Yes. While I use Nespresso I'm interested in your experiences with Keurig. While the machines are not the same I'd imagine they are similar enough that some of your experiences may br similar or may give me some ideas.We are talking about Keurig pods, no?
That’s just stupid.The pods are leftovers from what goes in bags and cans of ground coffee. Floor sweepings.
