Has anyone used these disposable filters for the VUE w/ SoloFill refill cup? If so, would it hold enough grounds?

The filter holds enough grounds, but the VUE and SoloFill do not. I use these filters in the Java Jig.

We use the disposable paper filters for The Keurig Vue. They work ok but I wish they were taller. We use the SoloFill cup and this paper filter so have less grounds in our coffee. For now, it works. We put two scoops of coffee in the SoloFill cup, filling almost to the top.

Here's what I do with my reusable K-cup filter. I grind my coffee to a size similar to that in the disposable K-cups. Then I put the desired amount of coffee into a size no. 2 t-sac paper tee filter, twist the top closed, and insert it into the reusable K-cup filter after I've removed the metal filter basket. Don't need that metal basket for my method. All you need is the gray plastic outer shell. Works perfectly for me. The t-sac holds all the grounds in place and you can just dump them out once the coffee is done. You can get the t-sac filters on Amazon or the are generally carried is specialty tea shops. Be sure to use the no. 2 or larger bag size. The no. 1 is a bit too small for this purpose. Enjoy! Constance Makela Minnesota

They work fine. Just save the bottom of a vue cup after you have pulled out the filter, and lightly wedge one edge of the SF Bay pod into it. Occasionally the SF Bay pod will get stuck when you're opening the vue after brewing, if this happens don't force it out, just close the top and reopen and it will usually pop right out. I use these more than the regular vue cups because they taste great and are a much better value overall. Regular k cups will work too if you use the bottom of a "travel mug" size vue cup and poke a hole in the side of the kcup toward the bottom edge and align it with the spout of the vue cup.

I doubt that - because this product only holds filter cups as you can see. Try an alternate method of disposable filter cups from the Amazon web site - good luck!

yes, you can fill these filters with any brand coffee. it tends to be a little weaker, just put more grinds but don't overfill!

we bought paper filters for ekobrew which fit these refillables on our keurig and cuisinart single serve; there are also other paper filters and it will say on the description whether or not they fit the single serve brewers where these refillables are used. Hope this helps.

you just use about 2 tablespoons of grounds. no need for disposable singles since the maker has a built-in basket filter

I use a filter that is made for the basket. Look for them at Giant if you have one,but Amazon also sells them. Look for Mallitta Wrap Around Filters or Brew Rite Wrap Around Filters. These fit in the basket with a little adjusting and after putting your grounds( I recommend using a spoon to push grounds down) in, you just fold over the corners. They have a hole in the bottom and on the four corners to fold over the grounds. It takes a few times to master, but it is worth it, because I have no problem with grounds in my coffee.

I use the regular paper filters, never had a problem (I've never used the permanent kind). The paper filters work great. (the round "Mr Coffee" kind, by the way, not the cone shaped ones)

Are you inserting the filter in a plastic filter cup or directly in the machine? We use ours in a filter cup and have never had a problem. They work great with our own ground coffee.

IMO, the K-Cup machines are more prone to failure. Check the reviews. As for selection, K cups beat VUE (V cups) for now. BUT!, if you purchase a Pod adapter called "Solofill V2", you can use K cups in VUE brewers. Good for those Brands/Flavors you can't find in a V cup.

probably, but you don't need to buy filters as long as the coffee used is not too fine. Just wet the coffee basket with water and then fill with the measured coffee needed for the amount of cups brewed. There should be little if any coffee grinds that get through. Hope this helps.

Although I haven't tried it, I would say yes - with ONE condition: the filters are paper so the grounds can/will fall out if you fill them too far. You may have some spill out as you are taking them out.

I use a #4 paper and then a reusable screen filter on top of that. I have found that using just the paper filter tends to clog up with my grind. The screen seperates the fine particulate mater from the larger ground pieces of coffee. I use 2 large scoops (I believe they are 2 tablespoons each) for my carafe, and one large scoop for my travel mug (Starbucks medium size).I hope tis helps.

They work ok, but like the no mess of the ez cup filters best, just dump and no grinds left behind to rinse. I have an ez cup reusable filter and ecobrew and they fit just fine. I make up 5 or 6 at a time and just grab one and pop it in the kuerig

You have to buy the grey EZ cup to use with the filters. I think using two filters (the reusable screen one and the paper) makes it weaker so I use my coffee grinder to grind the regular coffee finer before filling it. I've never tried using the paper filter without using the EZ cup screen filter. I bought extra screen filters as well as the paper filters.

Hi Cathy.......this is a very fine mesh material, I'm guessing it's made of nylon and yes, it should filter coffee grounds quite nicely.I think 4 or 5 of these come in a package and you can certainly 'rinse and repeat' often before replacement is likely to be needed.I say give it a shot.....you really have very little to lose for the price charged.hope this helps,mark
