PARTY BARGAINS 300-Count Paper Coffee Filters – Compact Design, White Single-Use Filters, for Keurig Brewers and Compatible with K-Cup Pods 1.0 & 2.0 Models

THESE FILTERS WORK VERY WELL: BETTER COFFEE, EASIER POD CLEANUP. (SEE COMMENTS)
NOTE: Some of the negative reviews seems to be from buyers trying to use them in K-Carafe size brew pods (they aren’t intended for that deeper size) or they’ve put coffee in these filters and placed them directly in their Keurig without being inside a pod intended for brewing with your own coffee. These are to be placed inside pods, of the correct size, just to filter out sediment that otherwise will get through the mesh and into your cup of coffee.We grind gourmet coffee beans just before brewing and have a fleet of third-party brew cups for our Keurig B70. These Party Bargains disposable filters work well and, in addition to filtering out almost all sediment, they make it much easier to clean the reusable brew cups. Some grounds will typically get on the underside of the lid but they’re easily rinsed off, making cleanup a snap. This particular product was selected for its rating and also the lower cost per cup. NOTE: The filters are thin so it’s fairly easy to get more than one when pulling off the stack but you’ll quickly learn how to avoid that. I wish I’d found these convenient filters a long time ago.NOTE: The lip of these filter paper cups varies in width and in some cases can bunch up at the brew pod lid hinge, *possibly* causing a bit of leakage during brew. To avoid that I use a pair of scissors to cut off a bit of the lip, then position that reduced lip at the pod’s hinge..

Filters on the “thin” side, left residue in cup, oil floating on top
Have to start this review by saying the following: using KCups in a Keurig is just a complete waste. Yes, you get a great cup of coffee however you’re spending on average .45 – .65 cents per cup just for the KCup and coffee. Then there’s the waste of throwing out all those KCups which just irritated me. No, I’m not an environmentalist whacko, I just don’t like waste when I don’t have to. That’s why I purchased these filters to go along with the KCup refillable pod I’d purchased.Now onto the review: Filters come well packaged and it’s self explanatory how to use them. Separting the filters to get just one can be a bit of a challenge if that’s all you’re going to use is one filter. If you’re going to use two (and I recommend that) it’s a little easier.First things first here: get one of those filter-grabber tools here on Amazon to help youself get one or two filters. Makes things MUCH easier.Second, it didn’t matter which coffee I used, whether Starbucks (blecchh) or Folgers, using a fine ground with these filters will net grounds and residue in the bottom of your coffee cup and oil floating on the top. If that’s your thing – great, but it’s not mine.After experimentation with different levels of coffee in my coffee pod and using a single filter, I decided to try using two filters and maxing out the amount of coffee in the pod.BINGO! Perfect cup! No grounds, no residue on the bottom and no oil floating up on the top of the cup.I’ve been using two filters for the past few weeks now and have yet to see oil floating on top or have any grounds or residue on the bottom of my cup (I use a white coffee cup so I’d see it if there was.)Therefore, my only complaint with these filters is as follows: they aren’t thick enough. They’re too thin. The problem could however also be the budget KCup refillable pod that I’m using, though there doesn’t appear to be much difference in the ones I tried in this little experiment.Still, this is a lot less waste overall if one considers I was drinking two pots of really terrible drip coffee every day and tossing out a lot more grounds and more physical filter at the time than I do today. Now I pretty much toss out two tablespoons of coffee grounds and four tiny filters a day. I drink a lot less coffee, waste less, and I’m drinking a good, strong, quality cup of joe. What’s not to like about that?

Good filter, good price
I would like to say I have used a few brands and these are made out of the same material. That said I would like to address the folk that over fill and stuff the filter down to the bottom of the pod thinking more coffee is going to make it stronger. Then you complain of torn bottoms and grounds in your coffee. Been there and done that. Then I ripped apart some pre made pods. They do not go to the bottom either. They leave a space to slow down the water so it brews longer. The Keurig even has a stronger setting that intentially slows the water flow. Now the tearing problem. When you overfill the filter you cause the tear by not leaving room for expansion of the grinds as the absorbe the water and swell. When the tear occurs the water rushes through and you get a muddy cup of weak coffee. This is a definite case of less is more. Rip open a pre made pod of your favorite coffee and see what they look like inside.These filters work great and don’t tear if used properly. 5 stars. I will also add they are not overpriced. My cup of coffee and filter cost me 11 cents without all the plastic waste… compostable to. Can even use the grounds to raise worms for the garden and fishing. Enjoy! 😷👍☕

I started off purchasing other filters and thought I’d be brand loyal. When the filters I normally used weren’t in stock, I ordered these and I’m thrilled with them.They fit my reusable mesh Kcup filter perfectly and the filter even leaves a little lip around the edge which prevents coffee grinds escaping into my filter.I’ll keep using these from now on. I find that they’re the best I’ve used. They don’t detract from the flavour of the coffee and because there’s a little lip from the filter that runs around the Kcup, it’s easy to remove and dispose of. For 300 filters, I’ll say it’s a decent price; you won’t see any complaints from me!

I put these in the reusable k-cup pod with the attached lid. NO more coffee grounds in my coffee! Coffee even tastes better! Decent price for a 300 pc box.Update March 1/22 – Bought these Jan 20/22 for $25, went to re-order today and the price has increased to $46.00Will purchase elsewhere.
