The keurig just keeps getting better...

-


Ok So as I have wrote many times, I love coffee, all types, all forms. And all kinds of equipment. I have a french press I got from Ikea that works pretty good . I want to upgrade to a Bodum because they are fantastic and they close off to keep the coffee warm, this one has an opening so it gets cold over time. But none the less, I do like to use it with certain kinds of coffee. French press works great with a coarse ground coffee. I happen to have a few bags of coffee that are coarse ground. So last night I decided to try my New England Decaf Hazelnut Creme coffee in he french press. But not just that, I put the french press under the Keurig and brewed the hot water right in. It was so easy. Now I don't have to wait to boil water in the tea kettle. Now even on the largest brew it won't fill up all the way, unless you run 2, or 3 cycles. And this would only be able to work with the big Platinum Keurig , like the one I have. But it's just so cool. The coffee came out amazing.It actually made a really great crema. And I'm saying to myself is there really anything you can't use the Keurig for ?? It's so amazing. I will be posting some pics of the great coffee, and I encourage you to try this if you love all different methods of brewing coffee as I do..
Have you guys ever done this with you Keurig? Or any other things? I find myself using it for my oatmeal, drinks, coffee, everything really. Now french press too :)

Cafe' Bustelo Review

Well this wasn't my first time trying Cafe' Bustelo. I read online it was the number one cuban coffee in America. All people drink it not juts spanish. But I know the spanish people rave about it. I have yet to meet a spanish person that doesn't have a brick of Bustelo in their cabinet. LOL. So I wanted to try it really bad. Well the first time my father in law made me the instant version in a regular drip coffee maker. YUCK. It was so bad couldn't even drink it. . Second time was last week. I got the regular vacum packed version. It was supposed to be the "espresso blend". I made it the authentic way with the stove top moka pot. I thought it would be good. It had a nice fine consistency so I was thinking great. This will be perfect for espresso. I really wanted to love it... But once again I was let down. It had a really bitter taste during and after drinking. Honestly , I didn't even finish it. Which the worst thing I hate doing is wasting anything in li...

Gevalia Espresso Roast Blend Review

-
Hello and here's to a special coffee weekend review ! Today's review is of Gevalia's Espresso Roast blend. Now I am partial to my Italian lover Lavazza espresso. That I love and reviewed it on my blog. But I did have this in my pantry, and it was next up to open. So here goes... I had gotten a special 3 boxes of Gevalia coffee for like $3.00 . It was a promotion, and I said you know I want to see what Gevalia is all about. I had heard of it before. The first box, I forgot what it was I think Creme' brulee decaf, ,and I love it. It was great for at night, or when you can't or don't want caffeine. The second box I opened was Vanilla Nut. Which I absolutely hated. Just for me at least. Mom and hubby liked it . Now I just finished my Italian espresso the other day so I decided to open my last box of Gevalia which was the Espresso Roast. It was friggin amazing !!! I even bought a little battery operated milk frother to make the rich creamy milk so I could do cappucci...
