Brewing a traditional cup of coffee requires grinding beans, putting in filter, brewing the pot (which could take upwards of 10 minutes to brew an entire pot before it is ready for drinking) and then cleaning up and washing all of the parts when the coffee is gone.

There are many options when it comes to choosing your Keurig brewing system. All but the most basic, lowest-priced of these systems have a water reservoir which holds enough to make as much coffee as traditional coffee pot, typically 10 to 12 cups.

The Keurig Coffee Maker works by puncturing a top and bottom hole into the k-cup. Then, pressurized, pre-heated water from the reservoir flows through the k-cup and brews directly into a waiting coffee mug. It takes about 1 minute or less to get a cup of freshly-brewed coffee.

However, these prices really aren't much more than top-of-the-line traditional brewing method coffee pots. The k-cups cost about 45 to 55 cents per cup or more. While this is quite a bit more than the canned coffees found on grocery store shelves it is only slightly more than gourmet bean coffees.
