Hi..Ive never had one and was wondering how many cups can you get from 1 pod? Is it single use period?

We recommend using a pod only once to get the max amount of coffee for 1 cup. There may be a little left after the first cup, but using it more than once can result in the 2nd cup coming out weak.
442663
I have never tried getting more than one cup from a pod but I would imagine it would be a lot weaker if you tried. They are really made for a "single" cup serving.

It makes an 6 to 10 oz cup of coffee per pod. I hesitated 2 years buying this and could now kick myself. This is the best coffee maker I have ever owned. I enjoy every cup so much.
442665
I think only one. I tried to get 2, but nothing worked. Not the pods nor the generic.

The pods can be used more than once. However, the second cup after reusing the pod will be weaker. It's just like reusing coffee grounds in a filter setup-the brew will be weaker. I will use a pod a second time occasionally especially with bold, dark coffees.

Yes. Each pot is intended for a single use. I find if you try more than once the coffee is too weak. I like mine a little stronger so I even only to 8oz or 6oz for each pod instead of the bigger 10oz. & if I have a bigger cup I do 2 6oz or 2 oz. to get it a little stronger. I have found buying the reusable insert & using reg. coffee is more cost effective.

The coffee pods will give you 2 small servings or one large cup. The cocoa & tea will only give one cup of beverage.

I just bought this and also bought Reusable Single Cup Keurig Solo Filter Pod Coffee Stainless Mesh. They come 6 to a pkg. I paid $14.99 for the 6.

This will depend on several factors, all according to YOU. This is essentially a single cup coffee maker - it all depends on how strong you want your coffee, and how big your coffee cup is. You can thus make X# oz of coffee, depending on Y # oz your coffee cup can hold.This is a great way to make a single cup of coffee for yourself. Unlike some of the commercial devices (that make coffee too weak for my liking), I prefer the ease and customization that this device allows.

I normally make a 12 cup brew, and it takes about the same time, so I'm not sure why your 2 cup brew would be as long?? My theory is to make 12 cups at one time, and microwave the coffee in my cup for the next couple days, but if you have an aversion to that, it actually doesn't change the flavor! I can't imagine that a 2 cup brew would take as long as a 12 cup brew, but maybe it's inherent in the brewing process??

The instructions say don't use 2 pods - and the way the pod holder slides into the machine makes the top pod shift out of place. I use 1 pod at a time and set the machine to 5 ounces of water. When the first cycle is done I put in a new pod and do the same again so I end up with my 10 ounce cup.The reheat time is quite quick so 1 pod at a time is no issue at all. Enjoy!

Using the pods are easier. The coffee is already measured out and has it's own filter. Using coffee grounds you would have to know how much coffee to use for each cup plus find some way to keep the coffee grounds from getting into the coffee cup.

Me, too. Got the Ecopods. Don't work. My Cafe makes much better coffee than Keurig. Please let me know what works. It's not easy finding the pre-made single serving pods neither...but I really want refillable pod.

It makes 1 cup (8 oz) at a time. You must refill it for each cup of coffee. Actually, you can fill it twice with a normal sized bottle of water (convenient). This is the first model Keurig put out for single serve and it is very cool. They came out with the newer model (makes 3 different size cups), but it is clunky looking and still only makes 1 cup at a time. If you can still get this model I'd grab it up.

It can for single serving, however I don't recommend. I have been using these for awhile, 2 of 4 are broken. Now I use a regular cup.

How do I know what my Keurig brewer is- B30,B130, etc. is there a number on the brewer? I would like to buy a reusable pod but without having a number how do I know if, andd which reuseable pod will work?

No, it is terrible. I have seen some emails that made me think it works but if it does I don't know what they are doing. I tried using one pod, then two pods and even just the loose coffee and each time it is terrible. It was a waste of money in what I ordered.

Thanks for the info, I'll give that brand a try next. Do report back how the pod maker goes, I read online about people just saying to use a standard filter and then trim the top and fold it over and wet it, I tried but in order to get a tight enough fold I couldn't use enough grounds to get a decent cup, and using enough grounds meant it wouldn't fit in the chamber right.

Yes you can reuse them many times and they work very well, one recommendation, you will have to tamp the coffee or espresso down very tight to get the same or close to the same consistency as the normal pods. I love them because I can also use my favorite coffee or espresso and clean up is easy.

One sachet makes one tasty big mug of coffee. I guess you could also get 2 small cups. Depends on how strong you like your coffee.

It really only makes one cup at a time. I suppose you could make two, small weak cups of coffee - but I prefer mine strong - so it just makes one cup.

Sorry for the late response but i finally got around to testing it to answer your question..the thing is, in order to get the water compartment open, you have to pretend like you're replacing or putting in a new pod anyway. and the same pod can't be used twice because the second time around only brews murky looking water, which tells me the pods are only good for use one time. hope this helps

I have one and it works great. I also buy whole bean coffee and grind it extra fine and don't have to buy the expensive pods...hope this helps you.
