			So, what's the latest on prices for 12-packs of k-cup coffee at your local lakes region super market? 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			In the last month Walmart in Gilford and Plymouth has gone from 3.76 to 4.59/box of 12 k-cups. Flavors include French Roast, House Brand, Donut Shop, and Columbian. Hannafords in Gilford and Meredith has gone from 4.29 to 5.29/ box of twelve k-cups with about ten different flavors. Market Basket in Plymouth pricing remains unchanged with a box of 12 k-cups selling for 3.99. Flavors include Lighthouse, Dark Roast, Donut Shop, and Breakfast Blend. Three cheers to Market Basket in Plymouth NH for holding their store brand coffee at 3.99/12 k-cups ......... good for you, Market Basket ......  !

			A third of the coffee in the US comes from Brazil.  With a 50% tariff implemented last week, it's about to get worse

			I am surprised that FLL buys k-cup pods rather than rolling his own:

			We get our coffee from a shop in the North End in Boston and buy by the lb and ground for k cup use and store properly. Then I buy k cup liners for the reusable cups 400 of them for $20 bucks (I get the ones with the top flap on them) My total cost per cup is .08-.12 cents a cup depending on the coffee. Most commercial Kcups are filled barley to halfway so we follow the same model if I want it stronger I add some more

			Little known fact: You can take a swim noodle ($1.00 at Target) and slice it into 2 inch sections and you'd get close to 30 pieces. With a bit of elbow grease, you can affix a small screen to the bottom of each section. Fill this with your favorite grind and slap a piece of perforated duct tape and cover the top.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Put it in your Keurig and hit "brew". You'll likely break the machine, but what a fun afternoon you've had.

			We use Eight-o-Clock coffee but,,,,we also put it in a french press. I don't care whether it Pete's Coffee at $15.00 for 10 ounces or Maxwell House, using a french press will give you the best tasting coffee you've ever had.  Try it, Amazon sells them for under $50.00.  If you don't like it return the press. I'm sure you'll love it.

			Another good choice for coffee is an aeropress.  It’s a cross between French press and espresso machine.  Costs less and easy to use.
