New K-Café and K-Latte brewers simplify the art of brewing coffee and making lattes and cappuccinos from a single coffee maker using any K-Cup pod
Keurig Green Mountain, Inc. (Keurig) today announced the launch
of innovative coffee makers that simplify at-home preparation of
coffeehouse style beverages in just minutes. The new Keurig®
brewers enable coffee lovers to effortlessly customize their drinks to
enjoy a fresh cup of regular coffee or a specialty beverage, such
as a latte or cappuccino, using a single brewer and a K-Cup®
pod all in the comfort of their home. The new coffeehouse brewers
offer different features at multiple price points, so that consumers can
select the brewer that best fits their lifestyle and budget.
Each new coffeehouse brewer is designed with an integrated, easy to
clean milk frother that froths fresh milk – including skim, soy and
almond – in minutes. In addition to brewing regular or on-the-go sizes,
all coffeehouse brewers have a new SHOT feature that brews a
concentrated shot of coffee to be added to frothed milk to make
coffeehouse style beverages. While any K-Cup® pod can be used
with the SHOT feature, Keurig is introducing new premium espresso roast
coffee blends in K-Cup® pods that are optimized to brew on
the SHOT setting, an option for consumers who prefer an espresso-style
taste from their specialty drinks. Varieties include two options from
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters® – Vista
44° N™ Espresso Roast and Vanilla
Espresso – and two options from Caribou Coffee® – Real
Inspiration™ Blend Espresso Roast and Caramel
Espresso Roast.
“Consumers have long had the desire to enjoy both regular coffee and
coffeehouse style drinks at home, but many have been intimidated by the
costly expense of buying a second coffeemaker, the multi-step
preparation and/or the messy clean-up,” said Scott Moffitt, Chief Brand
and Beverage Officer at Keurig. “That’s why we are so excited to offer
coffee lovers these all-in-one solutions that make the option of brewing
a single cup of regular coffee or high-quality specialty beverage
simple, from the convenience of the kitchen counter,” Moffitt added.
