Well not buying a 2.0 machine. My 1.0 machine has been doing fine for years but I do not plan to buy a 2.0 I thought there were other k-cup capable machines, surely if the patent went out on the first cups there cannot be one on the actual machine? Why wouldn't someone else step into this market.

The advertising practically writes itself, works with all k-cups, the "universal k-cup koffee maker"

Its not the best coffee, but its fast and good enough. I have a press which is good for coffee; also awesome for making ginger tea; and a Bonavita for when friends are here and a pot will work.

Fortunately with 1.0 machines the refillable works fine and EkoBrew makes a very simple and great refillable
