I have been reading this forum for years and have enjoyed it. I thought I would do my first post now about my first Keurig machine.

It is the new Keurig Select B77 (not a typo), which is at a Costco store. It appears to be like the B70 as it has the Iced Beverage Setting and Quiet-Brew Technology.

The Bonus Pack that comes with the B77 includes a My K-Cup and 72 K-Cups, which are 12 each of the below:

Green Mountain - Breakfast Blend
Green Mountain - Nantucket Blend
Caribou - Caribou Blend
Newman's Own - Newman's Special Blend
Tully's - Kona Blend
Variety Pack (has 12 different K-Cups)

The price at the Costco store is $139.99.

So it's the same as the B70 but with different extras included?

I'm sure it's just the B70 with the usual Costco extras. They also have a B66 which is the B60 with extras.

That's a very nice price, by the way.

Oooh, does this have the larger water reservoir? That's been the one thing that has kept me from considering the B66 there...

Yes, it does have the 60 oz. water reservoir.

Coffeejam, thanks for the info. Which Costco location did you find the B77? Their website still only lists the B66. I'm an hour away from three different warehouse locations but will hop into the car if I know it's at one of them. Just thought I'd ask in case you're in the same area.

I've been waiting for it to appear...the B70 that's been out for awhile now doesn't come with the extras and has been priced at 159 - 169 at the cheapest retailers.

I saw the B77 at BJs for the first time last Saturday, but their version doesn't include the 'My Filter.' I don't know why...the same held true for the B66 - Costco's included the filter and BJs didn't, even though the price and model # is the same. They just have different contents in the bonus box that the unit is bundled with.
The new machine + 72 k-cups + myfilter for $139 can't be beat!!!

Beck, the Costco location is not close to you unless you want to fly. Smile

If your BJ's has it already, then maybe your Costco does or hopefully will soon.

I don't mind flying, but it would put a dent in my 'value' purchase! Wink

You're right...I'm sure my (semi-)local Costco will have it soon if they don't already...I'd just hate to invest the hour drive to find out they're coming in tomorrow. That would be just my luck!

If you can get the Costco item number off your receipt for me (if it's not too much trouble) I can call ahead.

Hi, I would just call your local costcos and ask what model Keurigs they have. You don't need a costco item number, that's what customer service is for. I called and wanted to know if they had any portable air conditioners and she was able to look it up and told me what kind they had and how much.

Costco Item #: 433240

I've called Costco in the past about other things and they've asked me for the Costco item #, but you're right, jbaross04...they should be able to look it up without it.

And I see you looked it up for me, coffeejam. Thanks for all the help!

I was in a Costco in Houston, TX on 7/13, and saw the B77 bundle there. I had to look twice, I initially thought I was seeing the B66. While I was (erroneously) wondering why the price went up to $139, I saw that it was a B77 bundle.

I think the Costcos are receiving them as a "regular" item now.

I have been comparing the differences between the B77 and the B70. I do not have the B70, so I have been using the Keurig website for information.

Cup Sizes
B70 has 5 cup sizes.

B77 has 4 cup sizes. It does not have the 12 oz. travel mug size.

Programmable Settings
B70 has Adjustable Temperature Control.

B77 does not have Adjustable Temperature Control.

Picked up one of these at Costco in Irvine, CA yesterday. Wow, it's SO much quieter than my old-school B40!

As with everyone else, I'm not really digging the power button placement....
