The pause and pour feature automatically pauses your K-Duo mid-brew so that you can pour from the carafe while it’s still brewing. Thanks to Keurig’s smart start, the K-Duo heats, then brews in one simple process. You never need to wait for it to heat up before you select your Keurig K-Mini cup size. My wife bought a Mini Plus for our new, very old boat. We love our coffee and cappuccino machines at home with the pods, so it seemed like a good idea. But that 1425 watts is a ton, considering we get 20 amps at our dock from the home power that supplies it.
I’m buying one for my college-bound child (the cheapest one, because he also wants a mini-fridge and books), because the dorm room is another great scenario. If you’ve chosen to live that pod life, a is a small step toward full caffeine intake. Based on judgment by coffee experts, using brew volume of 5 to 6 oz. And, where available for a given machine, Colombian coffee. Certain machines adjust the brew process by which pod or capsule you select, although some also let you use more or less water for a weaker or stronger cup.
WhenI saw it I thought it would be perfect for my camper van, or my desk at the office. The machine setup is as minimal as it gets, with no added attachments or accessories. The water reservoir and drip tray are detachable for easy cleaning, and it comes in a variety of colors suited to any taste. The primary goal of Keurig brand coffee machines is to make brewing coffee as fast and convenient as possible.
Of course, this means the water tank will need refilling with each brew. This is one of the main differences between these smaller machines and other Keurig machines with a multi-cup water reservoir. The Keurig Mini is one of Keurig’s most affordable options.
To use this machine, you just add water, insert a K-Cup, push down the lever, and hit the brew button. After a couple of minutes, you’ll have a hot cup of freshly brewed coffee. This coffee machine has a 12-ounce water reservoir, meaning you’ll have to refill it every time you brew a cup of coffee. If you only plan on brewing one or two cups a day, this is probably just fine for your needs. The fact that the one-cup reservoir is removable is one of the features that separates the K-Mini Plus from the K-Mini. While it might seem like a small thing, the removable water reservoir adds significantly to the user-friendliness of this model.
