Hello my beautiful friends!! This review is for all my coffee lovers. #HelloKeurig! I received this new brewing system from the influenter team. Thanks, guys! I really love my new kit.
I am giving you full permission to be jealous right now, because I would totally envy you if I did not get to review one of those. Okay, I just thought I would get this out of the way! You have to be a coffee drinker to understand how happy I was when I opened the door to this wonderful surprise. Needless to say that I put the machine together the same night and could not wait for morning to come so I could put it to the test. And putting it to the test I did! This new brewing system from Keurig makes getting a fresh cup of coffee easier every morning, or every night, depending on what shift I am working that day.

The bottom line
I am going to start with my problem with the new Keurig 2.0. This coffee brewer has been reloaded, and I love it. My only problem is that I have to reset the clock every time I plug it in. If only it could save the setting. For those of us who depend on coffee to give us a boost in the morning, this is the best gadget for your kitchen. It is also great for your home office. I love how easy it is for me to get one cup of really hot coffee in the morning, and the convenience of having a full carafe when I am entertaining guests. The water temperature is right on. The screen is very responsive. You can get hot tea, coffee, hot water, or hot chocolate with the touch of a button. How cool is that? You can also select the auto-brew option if you want to wake up to a fresh cup of coffee in the morning. I call this coffee machine my new toy. It is totally a keeper for me.
*Warning* You cannot use your old k-cups with this new keurig 2.0 brewing system.
*UPDATE* Press and hold the button to get hot water

Wooow, only thirthy minutes ago I just posted a comment on your last post, asking if everything was okay because it's been a while since you've posted. I must say this post definitely didn't disappoint me! It's a full review, full of relevant details. I love it. You did a wonderful job with this. Best review I've read from you so far. I love coffee by the way 😉 Have a great week doll.
Congrats on the new one! Lucky you huh 😉 Sounds pretty good to me except for the reset thingy. But not getting a cup of hot water is bad, though.
Happy Monday hun

Im a coffee drinker and I can get your excitement, it looks so good and cool! What a shame the hot water and the clock troubles, hope you can fix them soon though. Kisses! xo
Looks like a good one, but i have stopped taking cofee as well as tea.
Thanks so much, babe! You are a true friend. Kisses.
I am following Swank diet so no milk and caffine in any form.
Interesting machine, as a coffee lover I will have to check this one out for the new house. xoxo
I received one of these from Influenster as well and I’m loving mine. I still need to write my review. I haven’t even tried the hot water feature yet, but now I’m curious! Great review!

I would be just as excited too. How fancy and yes, lucky girl. I love coffee and if my coffee can brew just right, more power to that machine. Thanks for the fantastic review. Now you can mail it to me ;).

Wowzers…Influenster has stepped their game up. I love my Keurig.
Ok, I'm totally jealous!! I want this! What is the difference between the 1st one and the 2nd one though?
I never had the first one, but I think it is the first one that brews both a cup or a full carafe of coffee.
I am glad you love it doll.
Haha! You cracked me up!
