 No strong enough for my son August 28, 2010
Barbara K. Bennett (Florida)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this for my son as I have one and love it. He tried everything to make very strong coffee. He used less water but ended up with very little coffee. He tried the separate filter I bought with it but that didn't work either so it is going back. We both feel badly.
 Excellent Pod Machine August 27, 2010
Vince J. Filippelli (NY, USA)
The Keurig B-40 is a coffee pod machine. The unit pumps a pre-determined amount of hot water through a pod that contains coffee and directly into your cup. It makes one cup at a time from the pre-made pods you purchase with a variety of coffee, tea, and hot chocolate selections. The B-40 makes either a 7.5oz or 9.5oz cup (non-adjustable) and has a low water light and descaling warning light. The advantages of having a single cup brewer are there is no coffee waste, speed, and variety. This model is ready to brew the first cup in just over a minute and only 14 seconds between cups. As with any pump machine there is some noise while brewing, the B-40 is quieter than my old Senseo and a $500 Nespresso D90. Unless you live in a 60s era trailer, it won't wake up everyone in the house. Coffee pods run about $.40-$.47 each which is about 3-4 cents more than the Senseo and about .10 more than a cup of home brew drip coffee. I paid just over 100 for the unit which came with some sample pods. Setup was a breeze, instructions are clear, and it has a one year warrenty.
I have owned pod machines since they first came out, starting the the Melita One:One (terrible), the Senseo, which was very good for several years, and now finally the Keurig for a month now.
What I like about the B-40:
Large removable tank (had to purchase a larger tank for the Senseo).
Variety and availability of pods. A big factor when choosing your pod machine!
Speed, faster than the Senseo, especially the second cup.
Believe it or not, cleanliness. My other pod machines were messy, dripping coffee everywhere while removing the pod. In a month worth of use not one drop had fallen on the drip tray.
What I wish the B-40 could do:
Adjustable brew amounts.
Overall I'm happy with this machine and would recommend it to friends and family.
Good while it worked August 27, 2010

Worked great for about 6 months and then out of nowhere started marking weird noises and stopped working.
