Keurig to Ninja

At first I was skeptical of using a Keurig.  Then we got one and it was so easy to use, I often skipped making a full pot of coffee.  Previously, I preferred my Martha Stewart recommended, made in the Netherlands, "perfect-cup-of-coffee" Moccamaster coffee maker I'd used since owning my B&B in early 2000.  In twenty-six years I'd replaced it only once with a new one.  That's a better track record than most coffee makers provide.

 

However, the prior owners of our condominium left us a Ninja DualBrew Pro Specialty Coffee System.  It is absolutely amazing.  It can brew either a full pot of coffee, or with an easy drop-in attachment-a travel mug size or a Keurig style one cup brew.  Plus a frother whisk is part of the machine if you wish to froth up some warmed milk for a latte.  It has a warming plate that shuts off automatically after 2-hours.  Last but not least, attached to the coffee maker is a handy Ninja Smart Scoop to measure your coffee grounds.  All of this, and only taking up the space of one machine, instead of the two I'd previously used.  

If that wasn't enough, the prior owners also left a "motion sensor trash can" I have never before experienced.  Maybe you're thinking:  "Do I really have to be that lazy?!"  Well, perhaps yes!  It is the most handy thing you can imagine when you have full hands, or hands sticky with something you'd rather not have on the lid or handle of the trash can.  I may never be able to go back to the normal trash can.  With the motion of your hand, this trash can opens.  Deposit your trash, and it closes automatically.

There have been several reasons to appreciate our new condominium.   These two items are the unexpected frosting on top.
