If I don’t get a new one for free I will not recommend and not buy another Keurig. I will also post on the Keurig website about my troubles. At the time of publishing, the black version was the most affordable. However, looking at historical data, the price seems to fluctuate between different colors. Oasis and Studio Gray can be much more affordable than Black.
It brews very neat coffee, and a prominent brand stands behind the quality of this coffee machine. For such a small coffee maker, I was impressed with what Cuisinart Coffee could accomplish. It brewed perfectly fine coffee quickly and conveniently.
The “Strong Brew” function makes all the difference for coffee enthusiasts who enjoy a strong drink. Meanwhile, the removable water reservoir cuts out a lot of hassle while cleaning the coffee maker. Finally, the K-Mini Plus’s pod container is a welcome addition, too.
With the reusable My K-Cup, you can use any ground coffee in your K-Mini brewer, which has three big advantages versus a pre-packaged coffee pod. By sliding out the removable drip tray, you can get up to 7 inches of clearance Keurig K-Mini beneath the brew spout. The crown jewel of the Keurig 2.0 pod-scanning system, feature-rich K500 series brewers offer 11 brew sizes and massive 80 oz reservoir. Now discontinued, we recommend the Keurig K-Duo Plus instead.
Temperature is another vital part of brewing coffee, and the National Coffee Association says the optimal cup is brewed between 195 to 205 degrees Fahrenheit. The K-Mini is unable to produce coffee at this temperature. Out of four cups of coffee, each cup I brewed ranged between 180 to 189 degrees Fahrenheit, despite the serving size.
