Many people are asking this question because to them, single serve coffee maker is a closed system. And being a closed system, one would have to purchase the coffee that comes with the single serve coffee machine.

And even till today, this is how most single serve market their products. Of course, there are some machines other there that allows "partners" products to be used on their machine, but most single serve machines still requires you to purchase their own coffee.

Before moving on to some devices that might assist you to mitigate this issue, there are 3 companies with their single serve coffee makers that would remain perpetually closed, that is, you would have to purchase their coffee if you are using their machines.

They are Keurig with their K-cups, Tassimo with their T-disc and Nespresso with their capsules. So, do take note that you really have to love these coffees to purchase their machines.

Other than that, if you are getting any other coffee pods machines, you do not really have to worry too much about the blend of coffee because as I mentioned earlier, there are various solutions in the market that would "opened" the system.

One of them is known as the Perfect pod maker. As the name suggests, it makes coffee pods, so you do not have to worry anymore about the blend of coffee that comes with the single serve coffee maker, you can make you own blend!

There you have it, other than the 3 brands highlighted, you can choose any types of single coffee devices you like, all you need to do is get equipment like the perfect pod maker and you would be able to enjoy any blend of coffee you like...

This is how it goes, everything and anything that goes into brewing coffee, would affect it. It can be something as small as cleaning the coffee maker to as major as temperature of the water.

Now, I did not say this, this is what I learn from a free coffee course, and one of the things which they bring out, is the grind of the coffee.

Anyone that brews coffee would have heard of the importance of coffee grinding. But, you probably understand it differently. For example, you would have heard about how important it is to get the fine coffee powder that can be used to brew espresso.

And I think this is where the misconception arises. Everyone start thinking that espresso fine coffee grind is the way to go, which in reality it is not so. What we want is to match the correct grind size to the right coffee maker.

However, we do need to have an even and consistent grind in order to achieve a good brew. And even and consistent grind are the 2 things to look for, and not a single type of coffee grind.

If you do not have the right grind to the right coffee maker, then it would result in either under extraction or over extraction. Which in both cases, give bad coffee...
