The Keurig Mini is the predecessor to the Keurig Mini Plus. It’s essentially the baseline model of the K Mini machine series by Keurig. The Keurig K Mini is essentially all you need to brew quality beverages at home. It’s available in black and grey, but unlike the Keurig Mini, it’s also available in white.
You won’t find a timer or clock, and there’s no way to program sizes or brew strengths. When we tested it, we also found it to be pretty noisy, which the sleepyheads in your family may not appreciate. The Keurig Mini is compatible with all regularly-sized K-Cup pods. It doesn’t work with K-Carafe, K-Mug, Vue, or Rivo pods.
There are lots of small k-cup coffee makers on the market these days and the K-Mini and K-Mini Plus are Keurig’s smallest units in their lineup. Naturally, it made sense to me to compare them against each other and to their predecessors, the K15 Mini, K10, and the ancient B31 Mini. Overall, we prefer the K-Mini Plus, as it offers better value for money and brews better-quality coffee. However, if you prefer a larger water reservoir, the K-Slim may still be the best option for you.
The bottom line is that the Keurig Mini is very simple. This is mostly a good thing, especially if you need coffee to function in the morning. There are only two buttons — a power button and a brew button — plus a curved light that blinks to tell Cuisinart Coffee you the machine is ready to brew. The Keurig Mini is a sleek, compact machine that will fit on even the most crowded kitchen counters. It’s available in four colors, including pink and green, and operates using a single silver button on the top.
It also comes in a half-dozen different colors to match your kitchen decor, whatever it is. At less than 5-inches wide, the incredibly slim and easy to use K-Mini Plus single serve coffee maker makes anywhere perfect for great coffee. It combines sleek design with space-saving convenience in a portable, stylish package that delivers fresh brewed, delicious coffee from your favorite K-Cup pods in minutes. The Hamilton Beach is less than 5 inches wide, which is perfect for a small coffee machine in small spaces.
With more than 3,500 five-star reviews left by customers who’ve already added it to their kitchens and offices, it’s clear why the machine is a shopper-favorite. While only 5-inches wide, the K-Slim sits a bit deeper into your counter, but offers some advanced elements such as a multi-cup reservoir and multiple brew sizes. It’s a brilliant combination of slender size and high-powered performance. The Sboly is comparable to the K Mini Plus in size, and it actually weighs less. It has both plastic and stainless steel elements with a black and silver design that suits most kitchens.
