Open Source Coffee Pods

Luckily, as opposed to some other coffee formats, coffee pods aren't trademarked by any one particular company. I'm talking about coffee like it's software here, but I really can't think of any other way to explain it. Although coffee pods do require their certain type of brewer, any company can produce both pods and brewers, so there is competition among the different manufacturers. Just be careful to match your pods to your brewer. Pods can be as little as $5 to as much as $30 per package, depending on the type of coffee they hold. Premium brands cost more, as usual, and it's really up to your taste buds to decide if the premium coffee pods are worth the premium price. Should you be low on money at some point in the future, you can always make your own coffee pods as well by using typical grocery store items.
