Refillable K-cup Filter Review

This is not the first k-cup reusalbe filter I have came across. This may be the last brand that I ever buy again though. Personally my first experience with these filter cups was from a Wal-Mart store. Those red filter cups from Wal-Mart are possibly the worst in my opinion.


These filter cups unlike the Red ones have a flat bottom. The Wal-Mart have a dimple at the bottom that likes to pack with coffee and can be a real pain to get clean. Not to mention, if you do not get it cleaned out very good it will make each and every cup of coffee taste horrible.


With these filter cups from Puna Inc. and sold on amazon you can not go wrong with them. For starters the housing is much thicker and appear to withstand a lot more use. Having the flat bottom also makes them ideal for cleaning out after each use with out any problems. This with out a doubt makes a better cup of coffee, coacoa, or tea because it doesnt leave a residue left over taste to the next cup.

The only issue I had with this new filter cup was upon first getting it. The cap on the first few uses may not set down completely so there can be some grounds float out. If you take a few seconds and work around the whole top of the cap though and press it down firmly 5 or so times, it will seal well. After about 8 or 10 uses the cap starts to seal easier though. I am thinking maybe the hot beverage makes the plastic release some of its tension and snaps in easy from there on. I have since had no issues with the top letting any grounds out. I do not have to work the cap down either, it will snap in place with the first clamp.


I would like to thank Puna Inc. and affiliates sending me this filter cup to try out and leave my opinion.
