Want to use your own coffee in your new Keurig 2.0 Brewer?
Well Keurig has finally heard your call and answer my creating the [easyazon_link identifier=”B01FSSLGI8″ locale=”US” tag=”cafe049-20″]My K Cup 2.0 Reusable filter[/easyazon_link].
This is an upgrade from the original My K Cup that worked efficiently in early models of the Keurig machines. However, with the many improvements that came with the Keurig 2.0 line, the ability to use your own coffee was left out.

Initially, users were outraged! But now lucky we have a new version of the My K Cup that that is completely 100% compatible with all the Keurig 2.0 brewers.
So for my fellow coffee lovers out there, let me educate you about the joys of owning a My K Cup Reusable Coffee Filter.
