Keurig: A Coffee Lover’s Fantasy
Submitted by Toni on January 29, 2009 – 8:42 pm10 Comments
I was beside myself when I had the chance to review a Keurig. You see I am an avid coffee lover and frankly I spent way too much money at Starbuck’s. You see I like good coffee and I have tried everything from regular coffee makers (making more than one cup at a time and it got wasted)to the Senseo coffee maker (a one cup maker but the coffee just wasn’t the best to me). Now don’t get me wrong, they got me through but when I wanted a really good cup of coffee I always went to Starbuck’s. My Starbuck’s days however I am proud to say are going to be long gone soon.
A little about Keurig“>Keurig (taken from their site):
The word “keurig” is derived from the Dutch word for excellence, and it is our promise to you. Excellence guides everything we do, from our patented single-cup brewing technology, to the gourmet brands of coffee and tea that are packaged in our K-Cup® portion packs, to our customer service.
Today, Keurig® is the leading single-cup brewing system in North America-for both At Home and Away From Home. Now, you can enjoy a fresh cup of gourmet coffee or tea, and hot cocoa Keurig Brewed® in less than a minute, without any set-up or clean-up. Keurig’s popular coffee, tea and hot cocoa brands offer hundreds of K-Cups® to choose from, so everyone can have their favorite variety.
Feast your eyes on this beauty:
The Keurig Platinum Brewer has a welcome place in my home. Not only is it appealing just from the sleek look but it’s features are amazing:
~Offers five cup size options for brewing. So you can pick your cup size whether you like stronger small cups (even an iced coffee setting) or travel size mugs.Â
~ Auto On/Off
~ Digital Clock
~ Adjustable Temperature Control
~ 60 oz. removable water reservoir, which holds up to 10 cups before refilling.
~ Removable drip tray making clean up easy and allows you to fit your travel sized mugs easily.
~ Blue Lit LCD display and blue lit water reservoir (perfect for those middle of the night cravings).
Keurig has managed to make a machine that is not only sleek but simply one of the most easy to use coffee brewers on the market. I don’t know about you but I am not one that likes to hassle over measuring and scooping, so the k-cups that go in the Keurig were perfect for me. All you have to do is drop the premeasured cup of your favorite flavor in the holder, press down and voila that’s it. Pick the size cup you would like and press brew. Simple, easy and ready in less than a minute at the temperature of your choosing. Once you are done you simply remove the k-cup and toss, no mess and no fuss.
Whether you love coffee, hot chocolate or tea, Keurig has you covered. You may be a coffee pro or just someone who likes the very occasional cup of coffee, regardless of how often you drink coffee, Keurig is right for anyone who drinks hot (or even iced) drinks at all. With everything from the Mini Personal Brewer which could be for the less serious of hot beverage drinkers to the Breville Brewing System for the more serious coffee drinker who wants filtered water to make sure the taste is always perfect, Keurig is sure to have something you will love.

This is my dream machine! Just this morning my Sis and I were going over the reviews at Amazon scoffing at those who gave it only 1 or 2 stars… I mean how could they!! Ahhh but they were out numbered 100 to 1!!! YESS the gold standard is the Keurig!! WhOOOO HOOOOO
One day I will own one of these babies…. one day…
My only problem with machines like this is that you can only use *their* coffee with it. Or can you use your own?
My husband roasts his own beans (I am *so* spoiled), and I would much rather be drinking his coffee than anyone else’s. If I could use his coffee, this would be my dream machine, too.
I AM SO JEALOUS!!!! I want one so bad but hubby won’t spend the $$$$….so I guess I will continue to sneak off to Starbucks!!!LOL
You have my dream Keurig. I have longed for one for oh so long. Please make a cup of coffee and enjoy it for, please?
OOOoooOOOoo I love this! All my friends who have shops in town have these in their shop and I am so jealous! LOL
I have one of these in my office – it’s awesome. I love it!!!
I want a Keurig so bad!! Thanks for your Review… it only makes me want one all the more~ ha!

Toni you are the best! I loved your review so much on the Keurig that I WANT one. I could use it to brew some Gloria Jean’s French Vanilla Supreme.

Keurigs are great little machines, the B30 mini is great in small spaces but still makes the same quick and delicious coffee. Mmm, coffee!!
