    I use a drip coffee maker, but I do love the Keurig.  I am just too cheap to buy K-cups.   ;)

    If I'm in a hurry, I use my regular drip coffee. If I have time though, I love my french press.

    They sell individual reusable brewing pod things. I have a Keurig and that is what I use.

    ETA: Stupid picture won't show up. Google reusable k-cup filter
    I actually tried that (my old office had a Keurig) and I didn't like how the coffee tasted.  When I go to my dad's house, he has a Keurig and he buys me my favorite K-cups.  It's great.  ;)

    Keurig.

    I am the only coffee drinker in the house and I don't drink it every day.

    I usually do a plain old drip coffee, but when I can, I go by Starbucks for a special treat.

    We have a Keurig single cup, french press and commercial coffee maker (double burners), yet I stop at Dunkin Donuts every morning for my coffee. What a waste of counter space!

    I have a keurig I love, I only drink maybe a half cup a day so the kcups are perfect. Its easier then trying to make one cup fro a drip. Although I do own a french press, stove top espresso and drip coffee makers in case I want to switch it up.
