You got it, TanyaP! As long as you have everything else ready to go, just pop that basket in the SoloFill slot hit the start button (please, please make sure you have the grind and run time settings set up on the machine!!!...read my first review...), grid away, drop it in your brew basket...if required...or just close the lid on your basket adapter, then drop into your keurig and brew away! Yay!!!

Yep! If you like a fine grind, you have to brush the grind that sticks to the side of the "Shute" but they provide a brush for that. I like dark oily beans and a fine grind.

the grounds fall directly into the open kcup. Don't fill past the line. Close the lid and use like a regular kcup. To be honest, it works absolutely perfectly. I have NEVER had grounds in my coffee and I would buy it over again. The only really minor downside is that the grinder doesn't know when the level is correct, it only uses a timer.so you may get some extra grounds on the actual grinder base. Its no biggy. Just brush it off. Very very happy with it.

Comes w the cup and the inside baskey. Put the basket under fill slip into the holder and into the keurig. Love it. Just make sure the holder closes firmly

I had another thought about this. I had nearly forgotten but when I first got mine, the two green cups were stuck together and I didn't realize it. It came out in drops and made a terrible mess with the grounds. I probably should have noticed that they were stuck together but well . . .

I wouldn't try it. The amount of coffee in the Kcup is not sufficient. I use both, but do not mix them.

I do not beleive so, because when you open to insert a new kcup, it "dumps" the last one into a resevoir. I do not think the 'my Kcup' can fit to be dumped and you do not have the option to "remove" the older one.

My Keurig brewer had the same issue with beverage weakness and errant grounds when I used the single cup K-adapter to brew my own coffee. I think it's an inherent issue with these brewers due to the lack of forced air pressure (which you get with store bought K-cups) and not unique to this particular coffee maker. I think it has something to do with the coffee grind and the water-to-coffee ratios. I suggest to stick to using K-cups, pods or the permanent wire basket for smaller servings. Only my 2-cents, which isn't even worth that.

I haven't had the grounds come up into the coffee. It is a mess to clean up but that's part of the French press thing I'm guessing!!!! You don't grind the coffee very fine so check that out too....good luck!!!!

I've had that happen to me. The problem was that the K-cup didn't puncture properly. I just removed the K-cup, turned it a little and re-inserted it. Making sure that it fully punctured. Worked like it was supposed to. Hope that helps.

I use regular ground coffee in mine, like Folgers and etc with no problem. Are you using instant coffee? That would happen if you use instant.

Brew any coffee you want with single-cup convenience! Simply use your own gourmet ground coffee in your Keurig® K-Cup® System with the MY K-CUP® reusable filter. Filter basket, filter holder and lid are included. The MY K-CUP® is compatible with all Keurig® K-Cup® brewers except OfficePRO™, B155, and all other commercial brewers. It is not compatible with the Vue® System or the Rivo™ System. I also want to say, I like my coffee a little on the strong side. Coffee seemed to be a little weak using this. Hope I was a help.

When you put the kcup in you need to make sure the holder for it is completely flat. That should help with the coffee grounds. For the smell, I would run some white vinegar through it and that should hopefully take care of it. The weakness depends on how much water you put in. I know you probably know all of this but this is all I know. I love mine.

I found that if you pack the grounds it goes into the cup very slowly. I just spoon in the grounds and tap the EKOBREW on the counter. The more tightly packed the slower it brews.

The directions say you can but I have never tried. I would just sit the K cup in the little basket where I put the coffee grounds. It has been a great little machine. My mom saw it on the ocunter at my house and bought one too. S he and my son love it!

I use the solo fill pod which is similar. I like using the filters for several reasons and would highly recommend them! 1. It seems to eliminate the occasional overflow. Without them, I sometimes get grounds or just plain water in my cup.2. It is easier to clean your pod, especially if you are going to reuse it immediately (as for a second cup). Without a filter, you have to handle the hot wet grounds directly, which is messy.After using one, I let it cool or dry. I empty the grounds into a container to save using ony plants later. I put the empty paper filter in my compost. Much less waste than a kcup! I use the solo fill pod which is similar. I like using the filters for several reasons and would highly recommend them! 1.

Absolutely. However, if you are using a coffee grinder for the coffee it does not work with the refillable cups that are screen only. Those would require a paper filter in the Kcup also. I have not tried it with store-bought coffee that is already ground. The grinder we have in our office grinds the beans so fine that the ground coffee ends up in your cup, seeping through the screen filter of the refillable Kcup.

You cannot on the new Kerig 2.0 I think keurig missed the boat on this decision. I am in the market for a new Kcup coffee maker and have decided not to buy Keurig

This is the part u need to use kcups....http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/review/B003ODBTBO/R3D0PG1JWQ49GX/ref=mw_dp_cr?cursor=2&qid;=1383842391&sort;=rd&sr;=8-1

No. The vue cups are too big for the narrow rows that are made for the Kcups. This is made strictly for K cup storage. It's too bad - this unit is really nice.
