Christmas 2005, my dad just "had to have" one of those new fancy single serving coffee makers. So, I did a little research and settled on the SENSEO brand coffee machine. He was so excited to get it. He had plans of bringing it to work and having a fresh brew whenever he wanted, because we all know, that unless you work at Starbucks, work coffee is nasty!Well, I'm not sure what happened, but the coffee machine never made it to my dad's work and instead, ended up in the cabinet. Something about the coffee being too strong to drink.
To make a long story short, I am now in possession of the SENSEO coffee machine. And, we love it! Love, love, love it!
I'll admit, it does make a strong cup of coffee, but we like strong coffee. Plus, I add a lot of (fat free) Hazelnut Creamer! But, the coffee is really good. Now, the coffee pods that you have to use in the machine are not cheap, but since we don't waste coffee by brewing up a large pot, only to pour it down the drain, it all kind of washes out in the end.
Plus, the SENSEO brand coffee pods are distributed by Sara Lee/Douwe Egberts, who is also the distributer of Randy's favorite Danish coffee "Cafe Noir".
And, just look at the final product. Can you say yum? I love the frothy goodness on top!
So, if you're in the market for a new coffee machine and have thought... "Hmmm, I wonder if I would like that one?" well, you just might, because we do!
(No, I'm not being paid for this glowing endorsement, but heck, I should be!)
Agree - my sister has one of these and have had it for 3 years now and LOVE it. She likes ONE good big cup of coffee daily and thats's what she gets using this and if she has company over - it's quick enough to make a couple of nice cups for her. Glad we taught you what coffee should taste like while you were here. =0)
ReplyDeleteI tried it and didn't like it at all. And I LOVE strong coffee. Oh well. Good for you.
