I cannot deny I'm a coffee snob. And it’s all thanks to my beloved Keurig Brewer. It's always ready to go with just one button, always consistent and never has any issues, thank goodness! It gives me delicious coffee each and every time. I can brew it strong or weak - however I want it and it doesn’t JUST make coffee - it makes so much more! After owning a Keurig for over 3 years, I can't drink coffee from just anywhere. There's a few places where I get coffee from just because I know it … [Read more...]
