I get a papery taste to the coffee anyone else?

I have not had the problem maby because I use filtered water and make a strong cup of coffee

I don't. Try different coffee / different water / wash cup / change toothpaste / don't use paper cup. The filters are just fine.

I have not noticed it-I do get a full 12 oz cup from each one, so perhaps it is more diluted?

I did on the first one but not after that. I think its because it was a new thing to me. Now my coffee tastes like coffee.

No have never had that happen. Are you sure you are putting in the right amount of coffee? Also it did not say what type of coffee maker you have. I have a Bunn My Café that only takes these pods. What we do is turn them upside down so they fit snuggly I the tray and it comes out perfect every time. Hope this helps.

Absolutely not. I, just a few minutes ago, made a cup of 100% kona peaberry & I only taste the coffee nothing else. And it is fantastic!

My coffee tended to take on a plastic taste to it after it sat for a bit. Others noticed it, so I then knew it was not just me. It really does get incredibly hot.

just got mine out of the box and i'm having the same problem. the filter holder is hot, the steamer seems to be working, but water isn't going through. i thought i tamped the grounds too much, so i have now tried with a loose tamp and with no coffee grounds at all. All I get is a horrible noise. I'm very frustrated!

Yes, I consistently find a bit of residue in the bottom of my coffee cup. I tend not to take that last sip.

I don't but some of the fine grounds get into the coffee. For me I don't mind, I have tried using paper filters and the cost just made me consider buying a prefilled k-cup. I hope this helps!

Sounds like you need to return it. There is some steam but it doesn't affect my coffee. I love the machine by the way. I've started using organic half and half and buying more expensive cafe. I've recently tried/enjoyed espresso from trader Joe's & juan valdez.

make sure the grind texture is appropriate, if the grind is too soft I have a more difficult time getting the flavor I want. Also when you pack it down don't pack the grind (coffee, espresso) to tight. I will stamp it 2 or 3 times at most. I most of the time get a thick layer of the crema. I had work in a café for 3 1/2 years and that is how I learned, obviously, to make cappuccino's.

yes, sometimes i get some coffee grinds in the cup. Use paper filters solves the problem.

I have two and have not had that problem, but was wondering if there's a way to get replacements. Mine smells like coffee, which is fine when I am drinking coffee, but not so great with water.

Hi Joel, It really is a matter of trail and error, and taste. I find that the darker roast coffee's tend to give a better output. I use a fine/coarse grind. They work pretty well!

Make sure you're cleaning out the little float valve on the lid. It can clog up with coffee grinds from time to time if you've put a little too much in the filter area.

I too have sediment problems, but I have sediment problems in a normal coffee maker with one of those reusable filters (plastic/mesh, not paper). So, thanks to the responses here, it's clear that these types of filters always leave sediment unless you add paper. It doesn't taste bad anyway. Just don't drink that last sip. ;)

Not sure if this is the problem of the coffee machine or the variety of the coffee that u are using. Try to use different variety of coffee. I think. Good luck

I found when using the plastic filter, without the paper filter you will get a fine particle sludge of coffee at the bottom of your cup. I am not a fan of cowboy type coffee, so I prefer the filters!

This happened to me several times also.... was very disappointing because I love the coffee! Since then, I close the top of my Keurig carefully and that has seemed to help.
