CUSTOM VARIETY PACKBold Coffee Single Serve Cups for Keurig K Cup Brewers Sampler, 40 Count

Absolutely a no brainer - we've ordered over and over again and have given as gifts! Excellent variety of coffee - my husband and I are like happy children opening gifts at Christmas as as each assortment arrives! An awesome way to experience many varieties of coffee from your favorite brands - many of which are not found at the local grocer!We now buy these assortments regularly and do not at all purchase from our local grocer!Tip: These are not advertised to work with a 2.0 model, but we have found that 95% of them actually do! A workaround to to identify those and successfully brew those that do not is shown below:1. Simply re-open the lid after you've closed it on your K-Cup (After a while, you'll know which ones immediately work and which ones do not - the "POP" you hear when you close the lid on the K-cup will be louder for those K-cups which do not immediately work):2. Try slightly jiggling the K-cup to see if it has been punctured at the bottom (if it has, it will not jiggle and you can close the lid and get on your merry brewing way!) ; if it has not, then it will jiggle and can be easily removed again.3. Covering perforation on the lid with one finger, turn it over so you can view the bottom of the cup. You will see a slight indentation on the bottom where your system attempted to pierce the cup but failed to do so.4. Using an ice pick or the tip of a steak knife, gently apply enough pressure to puncture the cup at that spot.5. You should then be able to re-insert the K-cup and turn it from side to side until it catches at the puncture.6. Close the lid and you're set to go!(This seems like a lot of steps, however, it really is not and the results are MORE than worth it!{{{Happy Brewing!}}}

I have three drawers for my Keurig, containing hot chocolate, tea, medium roast, flavored coffee, and bold roast. So far, I have purchased variety packs for each of these categories, and I keep them in baskets and refill the drawers as needed. This bold variety pack did not disappoint. It has lots of interesting types of coffee, including espresso blends, Sumatra, Italian, French, and other dark roasts. I have been very pleased with it and will probably reorder.

I love most of the varieties of coffee that come with the pack BUT far too many of the cups are defective and blow out during the brewing process, resulting in having coffee grounds all over my machine, on the cabinet and, worst of all, in my cup. I had this on auto-ship but won’t continue it because I’m only getting 25 to 30 successfully brewed cups of coffee for every 40 that I buy.

I was especially pleased with this selection as I enjoy character, and variety, in my morning coffee. All are very good and if any especially catch my attention I remove the foil top to remember to order that one again. I have ordered this selection before and was not disappointed. And if ordered as a "Lighting Deal" special the price, along with free delivery in two days to your door, can't compare.

About one out of three pods are not designed for Keurig 2.0. The sellers promise "verified to work in all K Cup brewers from Keurig, including the Keurig 2.0 K Cup machine" is simply not true. Price was high to begin with, then counting the ones that do not work, price is truly awful, not to mention the waste.
