coffee pot in cabin

[gingerdos]

My husband only likes Maxwell house coffee. He wants to know if he brings Maxwell house coffee, can he use it in the cabin coffee maker, Will we need coffee filters or is it pods. Is this possible?

What we had in our suite was a 4 cup drip type coffee maker which used pods. We brought some coffee with us as sometimes hotel type coffee is terrible. We bought some pods online for 4 cup makers, but you can bring ground coffee and some 4 cup filters.

[meglet]

That's what I'm planning, except in my case it's Lavazza. To get a good cup of coffee from the cabin machine, I had to use two of the circular disks.

In all the balcony and mini suite rooms we've ever been in, there has been a 4 cup Mr. Coffee type coffee maker (if the room doesn't have one, ask for one). We bring our own brand of coffee and yes, 4 cup filters are necessary also.

[punkincc]

For anyone considering bringing coffee, check first for the ship and room type you are in. Some cabins do not even have coffee makers on some ships, some suites have Lavazza type machines and some have 4 cup drip type makers which can take either loose ground coffee with 4 cup filters or prepackaged 4 cup filter packs.

 

And I should correct my terminology in my previous post. I said my machine used pods, actually I meant filter packs.

What ship / cabin level are you in ?

[sailingnut]

I think the studio cabins have no coffee makers so I am bringing my own one-cup one~~will be on the ship back to back cruise~~I know the studio lounge has coffee but I will have to get dressed to go there!:)

And on the Breakaway the coffee maker used single cup filter packs.

Maxwell House coffee is supplied.

Really when did that start. No name brand on the Breakaway in May and Fodgers in my cabins for 20 cruises thru February ;)

It was Maxwell House on the Dawn and Sky, which I have been on both within the last year. Cannot remember the rest of the cruises. I don't drink coffee but brought everything home to keep in our guest room.

If you're in a cabin without a coffee maker, you can try to request one from your steward. S/He'll have to see if one of the suites is not using one.

[gingerdos]

Thanks! I'm in BA balcony on deck 9.

Does the Sky have in-cabin coffee makers in the outside cabins?

We had one in our ocean view.

[calangelo]

Thanks!

How about inside cabins on Epic? Do they have coffee pots?

[dongordon]

And on the Breakaway the coffee maker used single cup filter packs.

 

Does that mean it only makes one (1) cup of coffee at a time?

I am in a Breakaway balcony cabin. Do all category cabins have the same coffee makers?

 

What size filter should I bring if I am bringing my own Starbucks coffee with me?

I know I took pics of the room in my review. Let me see if I have a pic.

 

Yes, I just looked-- it is a one cup at a time using round disc type coffee packs...

If your stateroom steward cannot find a spare coffee maker, ask him/her to go find a hot water kettle - NCL ships used to have them.

 

When we travel abroad, we always bring some instant coffee 3-n-1 mix packets, you can find them on Amazon (they are over-priced, IMO)

 

If you have Asian supermarket in the local area, they generally will have Nescafe as well as numerous imported brands from Asia, they are inexpensive and sell for around $6 for a pack of 15 to 20 sticks/packets.

It is easier to get hot boiling water & stir it in - enjoy (especially when you are in a caffeine fix mode) or for those times when you don't feel like calling room service or taking a walk to the 24 hour cafe/buffet to get a freshly ? brewed cup.

[bahama2]

Maxwell House and Folgers both have coffee bags (like tea bags). Makes a decent cup of coffee. Buy in supermarket.

[Tom-n-Cheryl]

Carnival PROHIBITS coffee makers in all guest cabins due to "safety concerns".

 

I know that has nothing to do with NCL, but just confirmed this for our Freedom sailing later this month... darn it!

 

(I suspected this in the past, but never really pursued it)

Yes, that is exactly what we had on the Epic. We brought our Dunkin Donuts coffee, and the 4 cup filters. PURE HEAVEN :)

[mking8288]

We had a balcony on the NCL Jewel 2 years ago and it was a stainless steel hot water kettle, little packets of Maxwell House coffee & tea bags, coffeemate & sugar setup plus 2 little mugs. Good for our own preferred "Ipoh" White Coffee 3-in-1 sachets and Oolong Tea packets - only wished that we took along with Ramen Instant Noodles like when we fly TPAC as they often run out/ration them on CX)

 

 

 

 

 

CCL, however, as least on the Splendor out of NY - did not have coffee maker or hot water kettle in most of the cabins ... It is less work on a daily basis for the room stewards, regardless of the "officially" stated reasons for not providing them on modern mega cruise ships.

What size are the 4 cup coffee filters?

(The filters usually have numbers.)
