Can the coffee from k cups be used in the pods?

If you can take the coffee out of the k cup you can use it in the pod. Any coffee can work in the pod.

I wouldn't - the Keurig has a spike in the cup that is meant to pierce the cup for the water to flow through. These pods are porous and meant for a Hamilton Beach or Senseo pod brewer.

No. This was a gift. We never use pods nor Keurig coffee makers. Convenience costs way too much.

No, you have to buy their pods (and they're not the standard size that go into K-cup machines). So, make sure you look at the price of those pods and factor that into your decision. It turns out to be kind of pricey; on the other hand, the coffee is excellent.

I use it in the k-cup, not sure if it would work with the pod brewer or not. Sorry I couldn't answer more precisely.

There is some misinformation in the answers posted so far. This unit is not designed to use K-cups or any other kind of pod or disk. It comes with a included coffee filter, and you simply fill the filter with however much coffee (grounds) that suits your taste. When done, you simple rinse the filter. OR, you can purchase disposable filters (#2 Paper Cone) and just toss them.

any coffee can be used. That is what I don't like about Keurig as you have to use the premade pod or use the contraption to make your own pod which is messy. It says no filter is necessary but I use filters size #2. Otherwise it will have some sediment.

The filters will fit in the K-cup reusable pod and prevent particulate matter invading your coffee. You can throw the filter away and not have to rinse out the pod. The downside is that the pod which comes with the filters has a special spring inside which compresses the coffee and makes a much better cup of coffee without the particulate matter and without the need go through the messy rinsing step. I recommend the original kit which includes the pod and a bunch of filters. The pod has lasted me for more than 6 months now and is working just fine.

Do not believe you could insert the pod into one of the reusable filters. The grounds annoy me as well but not a deal breaker. Would like the see Rodgers coffee add paper filter inside the mesh or a finer mesh to provide a ground free cup.

Yes, the only thing you can use is ground coffee! This is not a pod/k-cup compatible machine.

No. Use only one k-cup. Larger cup size will be weaker brew. For stronger brew, purchase bold flavor k-cup.

Yes, you can purchase those through Amazon and directly through the Nespresso website. Those pods (called "capsules") are compatible with the nespresso machines & are only sold under the Nespresso brand. K-cups (San Francisco Bay Coffee & others) are larger & don't fit into that machine.

No you can not use a K-cup inside this replacement. It's only for grounded coffee of your choice.

Yes you can but you have to hack the Keurig. There are youtube videos on how to do it. You can also get a DRM freedom clip for free that tricks the sensor and allows you to use any kcup you want, even the refillable ones. Everyone should realize by now, that eventually, someone will find a hack to counteract companies that try to limit us into just using their products. :)

No....definitely not as the nespresso pods are much smaller. I got a K-cupholder from Amazon which holds 35 k-cups which is great.

I was tempted to say no, but I'm glad I checked! My K-cups are 2" in diameter, meaning your "Pods" will fit. Enjoy!
