Keurig K-Select Review

The Keurig K Select offers a relatively simple and straightforward coffee brewing experience.  Making or brewing your morning cup of Joe couldn’t be much simpler.  Once the water is done warming up just lift the handle, insert the K-cup of your choice, and close the handle.  Next, choose your cup size by pushing the corresponding button.  If you want stronger coffee use the Strong Brew button first and then choose your desired cup size.  If starting from scratch on average it will take less than 120 seconds to warm and brew an 8 oz cup of coffee

Also, the K-Select keeps many of the same features classic series models have such as Quiet Brew Technology, removable drip tray, programmable auto-off, and removable water tank.  The detachable water reservoir has a 52 oz capacity which should allow you to brew 4-5 cups of coffee before having to refill with water. Buttons are placed on top of the coffee maker for easy use.

This version of the Keurig has a slimmer design, a larger water reservoir, and the option to brew a 12 oz cup of coffee when compared to past classic versions of the Keurig.  An added bonus is you can use any type of K-cup unlike a lot of newer Keurig models since there is no scanner with the K-Select model.
