Took a quick look at my Omre machine yesterday. It has a two section tubular electrolytic that drives the pump. It's strapped to the side of the case, so I couldn't see the value of the cap. Mine seems to work fine from what I can tell, so I'm not in any hurry to mess with it. I may get bold an

There are reusable filters for use with keurig machines, compost the grounds for zero waste. We have two, they don't get much use. Overall a French press makes much better coffee for less cost, fewer questionable ingredients (what's in the k-cup anyway?) and only slightly more time. Agreed.

There was quite the row earlier this year over Keurig coming out with a new design of the little plastic cups that would have an RFID chip or something in them that would prevent people from using non-Keurig cups in their machines. I suspect this was a response to the third party stuff on the ma

i don't care for the keurigs because they make coffee in the little plastic cups which may be toxic and DO fill up the landfills I was hoping my wife would use it rather than drive to Starbucks all the time. A vain hope, as it turns out. It gets used at parties, where people can get a customiz

It's not espresso, but last night our Keurig broke. Its handle had been getting kind of sticky for a year or so. (I don't use it, I don't drink coffee.) Last night a piece of plastic broke off. Today I took it apart, and found that the only problem was that some scale had built up on the cam t
