However, the Keurig Slim doesn’t have the “Strong Brew” function offered by the K-Mini Plus, so it might not be the best option for you if you like robust coffee. Keurig claims that they utilize BPA-free materials in the manufacturing process. However, just like with other Keurig machines, I am disappointed that Keurig puts so much plastic in their coffee makers.
Just like with other coffee maker reviews, I would love to remain honest in this Keurig K-Mini coffee maker review. Some of my friends carry this coffee maker with them on vacation. Instead of using a hotel coffee maker , they use their own beloved coffee maker to brew delicious coffee. Whether it’s a morning or afternoon pick-me-up a single-serve coffee maker such as the Keurig K Select can be extremely useful.

The brewer uses all regular k-cups, branded and non-branded. We would certainly recommend this product to anyone who doesn’t mind spending a couple of extra bucks. It’s reliable, produces quality coffee, and looks great on your countertop.
I was able to remove the drip tray to accommodate a taller travel mug under the spout. Keurig K-Mini coffee maker sells in several color options, all of which look great! However, I was surprised that there was a price difference between colors. After all, it was the same coffee maker, so I expected the same price to hold across different hues. Keurig K-Mini coffee maker has a clean and sleek designed.
Reflects the ability to produce weak to strong brews using controls and varying the amounts of water and the number of beverage packets. You can keep your machine in good working condition by cleaning it regularly. You should wipe down your machine after each use, and the K-Cup pod holder and drip tray are both dishwasher-safe.
The K-Mini is also available in pink, while you can only get the K-Mini Plus in beautiful evening teal. Therefore, if you’re not too concerned about other differences, your choice of which coffee maker to buy may come down to aesthetics. We found it to be comparable to other single-serve coffee makers. The coffee comes out hot, aromatic, and flavorful, just as you’d expect. As I attempted to show in this coffee maker review, this is a small, basic but quite promising coffee maker compatible with k-cups. Last but not least, Keurig K-Mini is among the more affordable coffee makers in the Keurig portfolio.
While testing, the shortest recorded brew time was two minutes flat, and the longest two minutes and 30 seconds. This is lightning quick, but it may be the culprit of why K-Cups don’t always taste all that great. The K-Mini stabs open a coffee pod, then sputters warm water through it without fully soaking all of its grounds or allowing them to steep. Like all Keurigs, the K-Mini only accepts K-Cup branded coffee pods to brew coffee, tea, and hot cocoa, though thankfully, grocers carry a wide range. These pods can run anywhere between $7 to $14 per 12-pack, the lower end being grocery chain branded pods and the higher end Starbucks branded.
