What kind of coffee to use
301323
Any kind of coffee ground for espresso. This is a lovely, easy to use coffee maker. I will work best with filtered water. This is a basic model, but does the job.

You can use any kind of coffee, just grind it fine for expresso or buy espresso ground type.

Any coffee you like, provided it is ground for espresso. Of the packaged variety you can use Bustelo foor espresso.Enjoy!

The coffee should be very rich and full flavored. Use 2.2g per ounce of filtered water. The grind should be a bit finer than French press but slightly coarser than what would be used for drip

Try medium fine to fine for a good starting point. Again, depends on the coffee, the temperature of the water, and your taste preferences.

I use Costco Columbian whole beans, which is a medium roast. Then grind only as much as I use for a day.

You should use only course ground coffee. Either buy a grinder and do it yourself or buy beans at a coffee shop and gave them ground for you.

Nope, not at all. Try the Dark Brazilian or the Tiger Nebula. I love this companies coffees. They also sell a french roast.

I use espresso grind, not the finest. It depends on how strong you wish your coffee to be, you can use any kind but the finer grinds give you a stronger coffee. Also, the milk does not get hot in the top, just warm unless you start with warm milk.

I use a medium grind. I prefer Peet's coffee and buy it from the grocery already ground and that consistency always works well. I prefer a strong cup of coffee so I add a bit more than I do when brewing for guests.

I have no idea, I'm not a coffee connoisseur but I do know that my family and friends tell me I make the best coffee. I use Tully's french roast decaf and Green MOuntain Black Magic regular. They are the cheaper coffees and with comments like I get, why switch??? I also use the Coffee Mate Hazelnut creamer. Around the holidays, I'll add a splash of whiskey with whipped cream and a touch of cinnamon or nutmeg for guests. Never got a bad comment yet.

I use Starbucks' whole Espresso beans and grind them in my Krups coffee grinder. I imagine the type of beans or coffee you use will depend on your flavor preference. I prefer a bold espresso taste, so I use espresso beans, but I have used a milder flavored bean (I think it was a french roast?) and it worked fine.

yes, you can use the regular Keurig. Just fill your mug/glass/etc. with ice and then brew it directly over that. Make sure to select a smaller brew size to account for the fact that your mug is full of ice. Generally, if I am using a large travel mug, I will use the medium brew setting. Also, after it brews, I generally add more ice until the mug is full since some of it melts when brewing.

I use medium ground good quality coffee and use about 28-30 slightly rounded Tablespoons of coffee for 36 cups--for a pretty strong coffee. You have to use some trial and error.

I guess everyone may have different tastes, but one coffee I always comeback to is Caffe Vita - Luna blend. It's based in Seattle and Amazon do carry them(not Prime, though). You won't be disappointed.

I use regular coffee. Be sure not to over fill the filter or else your machine will make a mess.

Good!! I like it, papagalos traditional is a good coffee if you know how to make. Look it up on you tube on how to cook.

You must use coarse ground coffee, the coffee you purchase for a drip coffee maker is too fine a grind. A coffee grinder is a must or you will need to find a store that will coarse grind beans for you.

Hi Mark, it completely depends on how you are brewing your coffee (which method) and how strong you like it. If using a French press or a Turkish coffee pot and you like your coffee stronger, go with fine; if you like your coffee less strong or are using a conventional brewer, go with a medium grind.
