Coffee Maker Review

Seems you can only use that or a rapid boil kettle at one time without blowing a circuit. We are just beginning our sailing life so don’t know much and don’t have an inverter for electricity hunger appliances underway. The Desk Pro model is actually made Hamilton Beach for hotel rooms. The major differences are that it is supposedly a little more ruggedly built, only has one cup size and only draws 700 watts, making it suitable for a 1000 watt inverter or generator. It is about the same size and is about $10 cheaper.

The brewer should be operated on its own circuit, separate from other appliances. Depending on the mineral content of your water, calcium deposits or scale may build up in your brewer. Scale is nontoxic Hamilton Beach but if left unattended can hinder brewer performance. Regularly descaling your brewer every 3-6 months helps maintain the heating element, and other internal parts that come in contact with water.

Keurig K-Mini

Grab a Keurig and a pack of Pumpkin Spice Latte K-Cups and save yourself some time in the morning. Choose an option below to select a new delivery date, or to cancel the current delivery. Your ZIP code helps us determine what products are available in your region.

This is absolutely critical for those who need that extra kick in the morning. The K-Slim also doesn’t have the pod storage container and is only available in black. This contrasts with the K-Mini Plus, which is available in six colors and has a container.

This gives you the ability to fill the water up at the sink rather than at the machine. Yes, both Keurig’s K Mini and K Slim models use the same sized default pods as every other Keurig coffee maker. When it comes to value it all depends on how you like your coffee. If you like your coffee simple with very little alteration, the k mini is a perfect choice for you. It offers simple coffee settings that ensure you get the same quality of coffee every single time.

There’s a reason why both are very low in price after all. Beyond these recommended cleaning and maintenance procedures, this brewer is not user serviceable. For service, please refer to the Warranty section of this guide. For energy savings, the brewer automatically turns off 90 seconds after the last brew.

Just clean with a damp, soapy, lint-free, non-abrasive cloth. Never immerse the brewer in water or other liquids. The brew indicator light will flash to indicate that the brewer is ready.
