When I was doing my Master’s Degree I drank so much coffee that I actually had to take a break from drinking it for a couple of years. I drank tea and hot chocolate but no coffee. I missed the smell, the flavour and comforting sound of coffee brewing. Years later I had my twins and coffee took on a whole new meaning. Not only did I start drinking it again but it became an important ritual in my sleep deprived days. I’ve tried a variety of coffee makers but until I found the Keurig 2.0 Brewing System I didn’t have one that could make a perfect single cup and a carafe all in one machine!
Keurig Canada had sent me teasers before my brewer arrived so I was already equipped with coffee and a fabulous Keurig 2.0 mug – everything I needed to get started the minute my brewer arrived.
My favourite features of the Keurig 2.0:
- Great tasting coffee with accurate strength in both the single cup and the carafe brew options
- I can make a pot and drink it all morning thanks to the thermal carafe
- So much faster and easier to brew a carafe when friends come over for coffee
- Large water reservoir which allows you to make a lot more coffee without filing up every time
- Fun Brewer Accents from pictures to metallic accents makes it easy to customize your brewer
Keurig 2.0 comes in a variety of styles so you can find the price point and features that work best for you:
The Keurig® 2.0 K500 Series ($189.99 @ Keurig.ca)

Disclosure: Keurig.ca provided me with a Keurig 2.0 and coffee in exchange for my review. As always, all opinions are my own.
The Keurig 2.0 sounds so great. I love that it has the option to make a carafe! There’s so many times I want more than just my single cup, especially when making it for more than on person. And how cute that you can customize your brewer!

Yes! The carafe is an awesome feature and makes the Keurig 2.0 stand out from the other brewers.

There are some great features on this baby! I love my Keurig and how it makes our mornings so easy. Would love to upgrade for the carafe alone!

Oh easy mornings – that is definitely key! Love being able to brew a carafe with the touch of a button.

I love so many features about the 2.0. I have the original Keurig and this new edition is just so fabulous. I absolutely love that there is the option to brew a carafe or single cup!!! The large water reservoir is great too.

Agree that the large water reservoir makes all the difference – especially when brewing a carafe.
How cute that you can customize it!! Love that! And I never drank coffee before becoming a mom! Kids will do that to you huh?! ;)

That looks like a great Keurig! I have an old school Keurig. I’d love to upgrade, but this one does the job just fine.

I want one of these SO BAD!!!! There are plenty of times I could use a carafe of coffee for guests – even for myself (for those 2-3 cup coffee days).
The brewer accents are ADORABLE!!! It makes me want one even more.
Thanks for your review. I’m jealous! I hope Santa brings me one for Christmas.

Definitely put it on your Christmas list!
As a coffee lover I love this! I am hoping my hubby surprises me with one for Christmas.

Oh, I love that there is a carafe option with the pods! This makes finally splurging for one even more tempting! (Also, thanks for breaking down the various types with prices. So helpful!)
Great review! I have never tried the keurig unbelievably. This makes it sound like I really need to give it a shot.

What a high-tech machine! These would be great gifts to put away for Christmas, and I know that the recipient would be delighted.

I so badly want to want a Keurig only because they look cool and everyone is always talking about them. Alas, I don’t drink coffee, so don’t think it would be much use to me lol

I was wondering about that when I first saw the Keurig, that it’s nice for one cup but what if you want to make a pot for a bunch of friends? Looks like the Keurig 2 takes care of that problem.
