Product Description
Introducing the COFFEEDUCK, a new innovation for Senseo owners (does not work with the Senseo Supreme or Senseo Deluxe). The COFFEEDUCK works with your favorite coffee. From now on YOU control the flavour, strength and amount of coffee from your Senseo. The COFFEEDUCK can also be used with one or two regular paper pods, so if you ever lose your Senseo pod holders, you can still make pod coffee! You will be amazed at the possibilities that the COFFEEDUCK has to offer. A regular cup of coffee no problem, an espresso no problem, 2 cups of coffee, you name it! Want a cup of your favorite Starbuck's coffee? Your favorite flavored coffee? With the COFFEEDUCK you are no longer stuck paying the high price for Senseo coffee pods! (for best results use a fine grind)

Best Yet!,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
Having tried eco-pads and the Presto, this is the best yet!
Too much water bypasses the coffee with the eco-pads, and they are a PITA to clean by comparison. The water flow is too fast with the Presto, not having the restrictor orifice to slow things down and allow enough contact time with the coffee. Plus you have to buy or make your own filter papers to boot! It's correct contact time, water temperature and passing the brewed coffee at pressure through an orifice that gives you the good crema, somewhat similar a true espresso maker. Clean up is quick, if only somewhat more messy than pods, but way more economical in the long run than buying pods or pod filter papers to fill yourself. The espresso grind French Roast from Peet's works perfect with the 'Duck, giving you a brew that looks like Guinness on tap while filling your cup and ending with a fine bubble crema. It's robust without being bitter. You'll end up with slightly less brew because the flow rate through 'Duck is lower. The best cup of coffee I've ever had out the Senseo. Start with a standard measure of coffee, make sure the grind is "fluffed" up and not compressed in any way when you measure. Do not tamp or pack the grind in any way or overfill the 'Duck or you WILL end up with a mess! Don't ask me how I know. :^) Your Senseo should not sound erratic or leak while brewing, if it does you either have too much, too fine of grind or have packed the grind in the 'Duck. Happy Brewing! Update 6/8/2010. The Duck finally gave up the ghost after LOTS of cups of coffee. The failures were the top screen deforming (first problem), most likely from the brew temp plus the pressure from the spring tab that holds it down in the Senseo , then the o-ring that sits under the bottom screen deteriorated (fatal!). This allows coffee grinds to slip past the screen and plug the orifice. I noted that the plastic frame of the bottom screen had deformed also. These are plastic/rubber bits that are exposed to acidic liquid (coffee) and high temps. My water also has low pH, so that didn't help either. This first Duck outlasted the Senseo though.:-) Ordered my replacement Duck tonight!

Wow, The only way to go with no mess!!!!!,
By It is also very easy to use: put in you senseo, put a tbl spoon of coffee, put the lid on, close the senseo and..... brew! Then just rinse it off in the sink and you're ready for a new cup :O) It is true that I only get 3/4 of a mug full with this device, but it doesn't bother me because I had some creamer and my cup is full! To sum up: - easy to use - easy to clean - use any of your favorite coffee - saves tons of money in pods - No mess!

The best refill option for the Senseo,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
We began using the Senseo when they first came out in Holland several years ago. The coffee pods were not as expensive there, but I still wanted to be able to use my own coffee, since I home roast. I bought one of the inserts, like the Melitta, to use with my own coffee beans. It worked okay, but occasionally a coffee ground fragment would clog up the pod holder outlet. Evidently some folks have had their boilers explode as a result, if a TV story aired in the UK is to be believed. The newer Senseos have a screen to prevent this kind of failure, but the Coffeeduck doesn't make use of the Senseo pod holder, so this isn't an issue in any case. This device is easier to use than the insert, and pretty easy to clean. My wife still prefers the pods, but I like to be able to choose my own coffee, so I use this gadget quite a bit. I would recommend this product if you want to be able to grind your own beans and use them in a Senseo.
Update, June 7, 2008: I'm still enjoying the Coffee Duck, although I have noticed it sometimes leaks a bit. It also got plugged up once when grounds slipped past the membrane and into the small opening in the bottom of the cup. After cleaning the metal cup and reseating the membrane holder, the plugging problem has not recurred. I also carefully smoothed the outer edge of the plastic cover with a file, and this seemed to help reduce leakage. I wonder if some of the negative experiences have been due to manufacturing defects, where the plastic cover was just too rough to permit a good seal.
