Convenient and cost effective
If convenience is your only reason for owning a Keurig coffee maker, just keep using the expensive, prefilled K cups designed for use in this coffee maker. But, if you are willing to sacrifice just a little convenience for a LOT of money savings with no loss of quality or taste in your coffee cup, then the DI ORO MaxBrew Keurig Reusable K Cup Coffee Filter is made to order. I’ve used one for several months now, and find it an easy to use product that delivers a great cup of coffee every time. A Pros and Cons list is now in order.PROS:-Quality built and durable. After several months of use, it looks and performs as it did when new.-24K gold plated stainless steel filter basket. Unlike other metals, gold will not react with the acids in coffee.-Gold plating allows nothing but the true taste of your coffee to come through.-Aside from the cost of this item, the only other cost to use it is whatever you choose to pay for your brand of coffee. Prefilled K Cups and easily cost 50 cents per cup compared to only pennies per cup with this item.-Quick and convenient to use. Just fill it with the desired amount of your coffee, snap shut the lid, and drop it into your Keurig coffee maker.-Quick and easy clean-up. Just empty grounds and rinse it out with warm water, and it’s ready for another cup.CONS:-Only one. Though the filter does prevent coffee grounds from ending up in your coffee cup, there will likely be a little very fine coffee sediment in the bottom of your cup. Though I have not tried using coarse ground coffee, I suspect that the coarser the grind, the less sediment you will experience. Again, this sediment is so fine, that I do drink that last swallow from my coffee cup and don’t even notice the sediment in my mouth.Conclusion: I highly recommend the DI ORO MaxBrew Keurig Reusable K Cup Coffee Filter!

Gold K-Cup works well, but some other tips may help you here
I have been brewing 100% Kona coffee in my Keurig for many years. I buy a variety of beans online and pay a premium for that privilege, but the result is worth it to me. I have tried a variety of aftermarket k-ups, and ekobrew’s version generally worked ok for me. I bought their stainless steel version a year or two ago and those leaked and the hinge broke down, so I gave up on them and I am now on to this gold filter. And it works well. I have learned a few things over the years. First, I actually think the coffee tastes better if after brewing it there is a small layer around the edge of bubbly slurm. I noticed this when drinking coffee freshly brewed in cafes in Europe, there was always some bubbly or foamy stuff around the edges. Second, I find I get a better cup of coffee with a coarse to very coarse grind. Third, don’t overfill the Gold K-up, that actually interferes with the filtration. If anything, underfill slightly. Fourth, if you don’t want the residue in the bottom of the cup, pour it into another cup. I don’t find my Keurig heats my coffee well enough so I brew it into a good mug and then heat it up some more. That allows me to pour most of it into my travel mug and leave the residue behind. Surely if you like coffee made in a French Press you are used to the coffee residue that ends up in the bottom of your coffee and that is supposed to be a superior method of making coffee.

El filtro funciona sin problemas con mi cafetera mixpresso, es sencillo, fácil de utilizar y lavar, sin embargo, definitivamente se necesita el filtro de papel para que esté al 100% ya que algunas partículas pasan del filtro a la taza de café, realmente no me incomoda pero al finalizar la tasa de café quedan lo que llamamos “los asientos” en la tasa. Aún así totalmente recomendado!

…….you need to use a paper filter with the cup, or the water flows through too quickly resulting in weaker coffee. Amazon sells all sorts of the k-cup size paper filters. Using the paper filter also makes emptying the reusable k-cup quick. I also recommend getting the Perfect Pod A03020 Ez-Scoop Refillable K-Cup Funnel/Scoop. This scoop makes getting the coffee into the filter/cup really easy. And use a really fine grind coffee!! I’m estimating I spend about 1/2 $ on Whole bean Starbucks Coffee and filters, compared to K-Cups, so these gadgets pay for themselves pretty quickly!!
