The K Mini Plus takes up next to no room with its 5-inch width. While other coffee machines are large and bulky, this machine sits almost unnoticed in tiny spaces. It’s also lightweight, so it’s easy to move around or pack up for your next move. Overall, we do think Keurig stamped the price tag a bit too high on this one. This machine is certainly simple and convenient, but there are many other coffee makers in the same price range that have more features and functionality. Still, Keurig machines can suffer from impractical brewing methods that result in a stale-tasting cup of coffee.
You can expect to have a full mug within just five minutes. This is a quick-setup, fast-acting machine that shaves valuable time off your morning routine. That being said, we do wish it had a timer option so you could set your machine the night before, but we’ll settle for the fast performance. Don’t get it wrong, though; many buyers appreciate this machine for the convenience and ease of use that it offers. The machine is made mostly of plastic, which can be concerning to some in terms of quality.
As you can see from our 5/5 star rating for “ease of use,” the K Mini Plus is extremely easy to use – even if you’ve never used a standard coffee machine before. While the instructions can probably make things pretty clear, we’ll do a quick outline of the simple steps here. The temperature of the brew consistently sat between 160 and 170 F degrees.
The K Mini Plus has an average lifespan of five years when used once daily. And with regular maintenance and cleaning, you can ensure it functions well over that time frame.

It’s clear to us that the K Mini was made to make brewing simple. While some coffee lovers enjoy the process, others of us just want to make it out the front door in time. With this machine, you don’t need any fancy equipment, technique, or skills.
Perfect for the coffee lover who prefers a bolder coffee. It brews coffee a little slower than I thought it would. It makes a nice single cup of coffee for me each morning as I start my day. The water reservoirs of both machines are the same size, offering a minimum of 6oz and a maximum of 12oz. There are water level marks on the side to determine the volumes, making filling the water tank straightforward.
Indicates how quickly the machine produces the first cup of coffee. While this is certainly an excellent option for some people, it’s also true that the K Mini Plus may not be ideal for all coffee lovers. It’s a single-cup brewer, so you can only make one cup of coffee at a time. The K-Mini is a breeze to use and eliminates some of the flashy lights on other Keurigs for the sake of a two-button operation.
At HomeGrounds, we always recommend taking advantage of this option. From an environmental standpoint, you’ll be keeping the non-recyclable plastic K-Cups out of landfills, which is reason enough . But you’ll also be able to make better quality coffee.
