Hi There!
I don't think I've mentioned this before, but I am a coffee junkie. Having worked in management at a very large retail coffee chain for many, many years, I was spoiled by constant access to delicious coffee. Since I left that job I've been on the search for a high quality in-home option, which I had previously found in the original Keurig brewing system.
I enjoy so many things about individual cup brewing systems - they are convenient, customizable, low mess, and fast. However, the original Keurig didn't offer a "latte" option, and I was also troubled by the amount of waste that individual pods created.
Enter the new(ish) Keurig Vue! I had heard about this upgraded option, had been wanting to try it out, and what with my move, I was in need of a new way to brew my coffee. I decided to opt with the Vue, and I am absolutely in love!

Happily, this model has addressed my previous issues quite handily. The Vue is able to brew latte style beverages, and the pods are recyclable!
It is similar to the original Keurig, in that individual pods are used to brew single cups of coffee, tea, hot chocolate, and iced beverages. K-cups are not compatible.

The only initial drawback I've found is that most of the larger coffee retailers haven't released Vue pods yet, but I'm sure they will be doing so in time.
I'm extremely impressed with the quality of the coffee that this machine brews. With the original Keurig, I was much more finicky with the type of K-Cup that I would use because I found a lot of them to be very weak. This has not been the case with the Vue. With each type and brand of coffee that I have tried, the brew has been strong. To add to that, there is an option to brew your cup on a stronger setting. So far, it is perfect for me.
Happy coffee drinking!
