Just curious, is there a reason to look specifically at K cups? I used them for a long time, but they aren’t cheap (not much cheaper than going to McD’s or something really), and even trying a number of different brands, I never really found it to be a good cup of coffee.
I use something like this for single cups now:
Cleanup is not really any harder than a k-cup (Filter in the garbage, quick rinse), and more environmentally friendly. Filters are about .05 apiece, and you can use any coffee. You can even use the Keurig to get hot water for brewing your cup.
·
Maybe you had too big of a coffeemaker.
But you don’t need anything big and fancy.
Or there is the aeropress.
You can boil water in a pot or microwave it.
But if you prefer instant you prefer instant.

I put this and a big $22 Walmart percolator in our unit.
Groups use that, and the couples use this. Toss it in the dishwasher all done!

Not sure why we couldn’t replace all k-Cups with a pour over cone and hot water dispenser.
Toss the grounds in the compost. Cheaper. Better for the environment. Done.

If it was me, for cheap, easy, simple, good coffee, here’s what I’d do:
1. Get some good beans, measure what you need for the day, grind them at home & take them in an airtight container.
2. Grab a mug you like & one of these https://www.amazon.ca/Melitta-640820-Filter-Pourover-Manual/dp/B00CHILTMG/ref=sr_1_1?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1458515023&sr=1-1&keywords=melita+pour+over+coffee+maker
3. And something like this: https://www.amazon.ca/Sunbeam-Litre-Plastic-Kettle-Cord-Detachable/dp/B0048BPWOG/ref=sr_1_82?s=kitchen&ie=UTF8&qid=1458515190&sr=1-82&keywords=kettle
4. Enjoy a good cup at work.
It’s going to cost about $35 and it won’t be easy to make a bad cup.
