I have an older, 5 years, kerig coffee maker, will this work in it? Never had a filter, where does it go?

I got a fancy schmancy elite model at the thrift store for $10 - it has a big clear blue plastic water container on the side. You load the filter pellet into the black plastic holder and fit it on top of the thing at the bottom of water container where it draws water into the machine. Sorry that's all I can tell you about the filter system.

The coffee is placed directly in the filter and then brewed. Generally this works well but there is sediment (coffee fines?) at the bottom of the cup. Also coffee is not as strong as the K-cups which I think is because the water passes too quickly through the filter.

I spoke with Keurig and no reusable filters will work in the 2.0. They said that because the 2.0 uses 2 different sizes of k cups a reusable filter will not work in this machine.

inside basket to put the coffee in. Some use filters inside the filter basket. We don't

This filter is made to fit into the re-fillable unit that is used in place of the K-cup holder. If you don't have the re-fillable unit, you shouldn't be using the filters with the K-cup holder.

You need the plastic piece that fits into the keurig first, it comes with filters like these but they need to be replaced like every 5 month I think, but it depends on how often you use them

Yes you do. It is a removable basket that "holds" your filter. Without a filter you would have a very messy and chunky pot of coffee. I use the "Pure Brew" brand for a 4-cup coffee maker. They are very inexpensive at Walmart and work great!

I bought a "standard" size 4 gold filter from Bed Bath Beyond and it just barely fits into the existing brewer basket (where the paper filter would sit). I tried using the gold filter with the existing brewer basket AND without using the removable brewing basket. Without the basket, the coffee drains faster and doesn't steep as long, so could effect coffee taste.

I am not sure and with that answer it would seem as a consumer like you that these things are universal. Does it say U may ret it? I would first go on youtube.com and put in K-cup reuseable filter. You have to have the recepticle to put the filter in. Do you have one. Added expense. I have both and a lot of trouble for that is why you bought the Keurig in the first place wasn't it? Now over complicating things. If you want fav coffee make ahead freeze in small containers and micro and go! Just a thought. Success! I have these and NEVER use, a messy deal. Cheaper to buy K-cups at disc. google disc k-cups. Sandra it's scary to tell address to someone U don't know but you may have one not used and I will send 1 to try.

It has a filter basket so it doesn't need a filter.... the filter basket is small and dome shaped so a 'pod' filter (the kind with coffee already in it) might fit, but not a 'traditional' filter.. even a smaller size.

We have a Keurig Elite and they seem to work OK, but I bought a plastic unit, intending to use them in that and you really don't need to. In my opinion the filters are unnecessary if you buy a plastic filter unit.

Assuming you have bought the right filters (hopefully, as it is a bit confusing) all you have to do is hold the plastic pod basket in one hand and grasp the the long plastic piece (which serves as the handle and water level indicator) close to where it meets the basket. This is also the top of the basket/pod. GENTLY unsnap. It does come apart. Toss the old filter, hold the new one under cold running water to rinse loose carbon media (approx 2 mins.) insert new filter into pod and snap the top/handle back on. Insert into water resevoir, lining up the pod so it fits into the notched hole in the resevoir, ENJOY your coffe!!!

You put the Eco Filter inside of the K2V Cup,(the brown one). It works exactly the same is if you were to use a normal K-Cup. You take the (brown) K2V Cup then put then Eco Filer or Kcup inside it, then just put it in the machine, all done!

It does not come with a filter. I use paper filters. But if it helps I've had this coffee maker for a year and I love it!

It fits in my Keurig that takes K Cups but its just a mesh pouch on the bottom of the pod so it will leave coffee inside the pot that will need to be cleaned out

I suggest visiting the Cuisinart web site to see which item they recommend as a replacement. My coffee maker had two removable pieces, one that was a basket that holds the coffee in a paper filter, and the other directed the water to the cup. The basket fit into the other piece. The basket broke and for my coffee maker (Two 2 Go), the GTF-4 basket fit perfectly. I am able to use it with paper filters, even though I don't have to (easier cleanup).

Thank you for you answer. Do you have one of those coffee brewers that fit the filter?
