This is our second K-Classic. We had our first one for many years, so when we had to replace it, we wanted nothing else but this exact ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf model. We use it for about three people everyday in the morning. The taste and quick brew is one of the reasons we like it so much. There are so many choices of brands of coffee that we would grab what was on sale and test the different brands from there. I would definitely recommend trying different brands of coffee to find the ones you like the most because there are brands that quite frankly taste horrible.
The reason it comes out slower and hotter in the beginning is Keurig’s version of a “bloom”, it’s to get the grounds saturated and let off their gasses, then it’s ready to be brewed(the faster stream).
Just found your channel today because I saw a Facebook add and bought this. I was at someone’s house a few ago and had this unit and I couldn’t understand why their coffee tasted some much better than mine. I now know, and there really is an “art” to brewing coffee properly with a Keurig and of course having one of the quality brewers. Great channel! Keep it up, I’m sure they’ll reward you someday.
Bought a new k supreme plus yesterday, on sale for $99 at Costco this week, btw. This is the second of your videos that popped up today when I had questions on how to use certain functions. Thanks for the help!
Thank you so much I got for Christmas last year. My old Keurig just gave out so now I’m taking out the K supreme and I love it that it makes ice coffee. Thank you so much for teaching me how to take out the part in order for me to put the other one in so that I could make my own coffee that was in a different video thank you I appreciate you.
I have just a regular Keurig machine. I take the Kirkland brand bold and brew on a strong 8. I get a 30 ounce cup pack it with ice, and pour the coffee immediately over it. This leaves roughly about an inch and a half of room at the top for cream. I top it off with cream maybe a pump or so of vanilla..... guys I promise you this cup of coffee is strong. It’s not watered down. If you put it in a double wall stainless steel cup, it will stay strong throughout the day.
Now I understand the details of all of this. Gosh, coffee is more complicated than i thought! I CANNOT WAIT for your cold brew video; that is the only way i drink it! Hubby is purely a hot coffee man, but not me. Iced all the way. Thanks again!
Man coffee can get complicated and I'm not even close to coffee-snob status either, there's people out there that would not be caught dead with a Keurig in their home. I believe thoroughly in the 80/20 rule, do the easy 80 and get an excellent cup, good enough, the extra 20 is usually too much effort for regular day-to-day coffee drinking... especially when you got kids to deal with constantly like myself. For me I'm a hot coffee guy but I still appreciate a good cold brew from time to time. I'll try to get to that vid as soon as I can. Good to have you watching MissAmelieMarie! :D
Thanks for the tutorial. You answered a lot of my questions about this. Apparently you can use any coffee pod you prefer - don't have to buy the cold brew pods, so you saved me some money!
Just stumbled across this channel while looking for videos on the over ice option. Just bought a K-Supreme off amazon yesterday after I unboxed a Keurig mini that was a christmas gift a few years back over the weekend only to find it doesnt work. Going to attempt to repair it, the ready to brew light on that one doesnt come on but for the kitchen the having to add water every time wasnt that great but it would be great to use in my workshop for myself if I can fix it. I personally like both iced coffee and regular coffee but was curious about how it functions, I added quite a few "over ice" K-cups on my wish list to try as I use up what I currently have.
Appreciate this video I love ice coffee all year long. I tried this out with the larger glass & filled with ice it was amazing. Not sure if you still make videos but would love to see more.. thanks
Usually the only reason I drink it cold is because the baby and kids distract me from my cup in the morning... parental problem 100%, I frequently pick up a have drunk cup of cold coffee... I drink it anyways just because, lol. Thanks for your feedback!
I bought a 100 pack of Comfy 20 oz Clear Plastic cups and lids (similar not what you get from the coffee shops). Our LG refrigerator has perfectly shaped square cubes for the iced coffee. I use Nestle’s Italian Sweet Creme Coffeemate to flavor it. It is awesome and has saved me a ton by not spending close to $5 a pop at my favorite coffee shop. I can’t tell the difference and my biggest problem is keeping my 5 year old from sneaking sips.
Ohh I'm glad you brought this up Ziad, as I was testing it didn't occur to me that the 4oz or 6oz option on the K-Supreme Plus with the strongest setting pushed might be an option. The strongest setting on that machine gives the most amount of water-to-grind contact time of them all - a full 1:45ish on the 8oz setting. Assuming the flow rate is uniform then the 4oz flow rate would be about 0:52 and the 6oz flow rate would be about 1:17, making the flow a pinch slower than the over ice flow rate of 1:03. The only difference is the split speed the over ice setting delivers at different temps. You are making me think of way too many tests to run, lol. I think the over ice setting is probably just fine although if you had the supreme plus and wanted a smaller iced coffee then that might be an option brewing with the 4oz button with a lower temp setting. Food for thought.
@@TopOffMyCoffee You're becoming a Keurig expert for sure. I'm still deciding between the K-Supreme plus and the K-Cafe, so I'm just watching videos endlessly :).
I enjoyed this video as well as all of your other ones. I didn’t realize that there was only one size that you could have with the iced coffee option. I’m used to ordering 16-20oz iced at Starbucks or Dunkin’. I don’t care about it being watered down as I’m not a coffee aficionado and I drink it very infrequently.
True, that helps, smaller cubes have more surface area and will melt faster. Biggest and easiest tip though is to use a lot of ice, the more ice the better and the faster the brewed coffee will cool without a lot of melt.
Just wanted to say THANK YOU ! I was having the hardest time chosing a coffee machine for me my husband and in laws or whoever comes over lol ! And i was thinking of getting a mini lol then a duo but saw a comment in your duo plus video about this one and i had to watch your videos on it and i gotta say with your recommendation i just bought it, now im looking up videos on how to make coffee on it and what kinds of coffee since my personal favorite is iced coffee lol. Well wish me luck and thank you!
Add some half-and-half in there and it taste good but if you have some regular creamer flavored creamer it’s a plus I used mine. I use the McDonald’s K cups and I added a little Italian cream taste terrific and I don’t drink coffee for fun just to relax, I drink it to stay awake when I go to work, I’m not wanting to go to Starbucks or anywhere just to drink a cuppa coffee as if it’s soda rather have soda😂
I just got the plus . In the directions, it mentions to fill a large plastic tumbler with ice. Would it be ok to use a large glass made of glass? Do you think the glass might crack, even though the temperature of the water is lower than normal ? Great videos by the way. I watched a few of your videos already. I’m going to watch even more. Very informative. We enjoyed them - thank you.
I went from the elite to the supreme plus because of the lessened foot print, larger reservoir and reservoir handle, but am disappointed that it’s not as hot, takes much longer to brew, both due to it not staying on after 5 mins of use. Hard for me to accept, but I like the added benefits.
Honestly, I think you are right, If you had the supreme plus and brewed a 4oz or 6oz coffee on the strongest and possibly the hottest setting then you'd get the most water-to-grind contact brew time and then manually pouring over ice all at once after it cools down a touch to minimize ice melt. Someone else said they like the idea of straining the ice out after it gets cold but I think that may be overkill, too many after-brew pours. lol - I have no problem with iced coffee but I'll just continue to personally drink mine hot. :D
We are surprised that keurig isn’t bragging how their over ice works. I haven’t tried it yet on my supreme plus but with my previous keurig I used to just make a strong mug of coffee and pour half of it over ice and keep the other half in the fridge until I’m ready for a second cup. My husband now has the thermometer out to see what the temperature settings are!
Oh my husband is only getting brewing temps of 140,150 and 160 in 4oz cups of water on each temp setting. How are you getting 170? He just wanted to know what temps this machine does. Our old one we could set the temp we wanted and it was always 192. Hmmmm
Thanks for the videos. Informative. i just did it wrong, I selected the coffee size and then hit ice brew (haha), so I just let the coffee cool some and then poured it over ice. I think you problably get strong flavor also like when you replied to another person below. I add monkfruit sweetner to mine. Trying to cut out sugar and monkfruit, I kid you not (and I am a another but sugar is gross girl) just discovered it and it's wonderful. You should try it. Happy Trails. God Bless!
My only comments.. you need to get a new brewer or thermometer or both or I do as I get up to 194.5 during the brew on the plus..on ice cycle near the end of the cycle
I'm not totally convinced these new machines have much of a resouvour - powering right down does not effect the time it takes for it to get going - at least I cannot notice a difference. It makes them nice as no warm up like the 2.0 I had .. and even when I did like cups in a row it still had to do that warm up. I will be trying "ice tea" .. just have no idea how to approach it .. cartridge or just tossing a tea bag where the cartridge goes. Then sugar or lemon - how do people do that? I wonder what the "ice tea edicate is"? We might as well do it the proper way - being definitely MORE a coffee person myself - but coffee I like hot - ice tea I can easily tolerate.
DO NOT BUY THESE. It has many poor reviews. I bought the K-cup supreme a month ago. Totally crappy product. Water spills all over the place. The descale light stays on even after descaling. I like the look of the machine and the handle for the water. But other than that totally disappointed. I also don’t like the quiet machine. I want to hear the sounds of the coffee brewing...the sizzles... like I’m in a coffee shop with a barista preparing the coffee. This is quiet machine feels like a leaky faucet. Not a fan. BTW, I have owned several keurig brewers but this is by far the worst machine. Don’t buy it. About to throw it out in the trash!
@@nanadeborah8717 to turn descale light off ,after u descale hold 8 oz and 10oz down 5 sec ,it resets descale. I think some of bad reviews are not using it correct.
Don't buy a brewer thru their website. I've been waiting three weeks and counting and still haven't gotten my order. Called customer service several times and they're no help. You're better off buying in a store or better yet, buying another brand that treats their customers better.

I freeze some coffee in an ice cube tray and use that to keep it from diluting
That’s a great idea!
Nice tip on making coffee ice cubes
Oooooh! Great idea!
You're my hero!

It def tastes strong. I wonder if it actually has a lot of caffeine in it.
I love the way that your Keurig matches your stove…my kitchen is also coordinated in black and silver
Is there any difference in taste between the Over Ice setting versus Strong 6-OZ setting?

Thanks for all the info. Made my first Keurig purchase last week. Got the Supreme plus.
Good choice, that's a great machine from my usage and it's the one I'd buy again if forced to choose only one of them

Ninja tip to keep it strong - I like that and I may even reference it on this channel in a future vid. Thanks!
Same.
Very helpful and informative video! Thank you for your time and effort in making these!
Just ordered this for Black Friday. Your reviews helped me decide which one to order thank you!!
I picked it up for Black Friday also, it’s so cool and aesthetically pleasing!
OK, which is the one to order I had to skip to the video because I only cared about the taste
Lol very cool video, very helpful and I agree "not my cup of tea" either 😆 hot is the only way to drink a good cup of joe.

Does the over ice function automatically make a 5 3/4 cup of coffee?
So how many oz does the Over Ice button brew?
Boy, you know your coffee making.
I would prefer using, strong, hottest, 6oz, and then pour over ice. I would want to extract the most flavor.

this video is amazing thank you so much ☺️
Couldn't ask for better feedback right there Biane; you are most welcome and thanks for your viewership!
What size is the glass you used? is it 16OZ?
Thank you -very informative
I always thought the amount of coffee the ice function brews was smaller and stronger because it uses ice to water down and balance it out.
Thank very much
You never answered if it was strong. And I think that’s why the 5.75 ounce result, is to keep things strong
My only comments.. you need to get a new brewer or thermometer or both or I do as I get up to 194.5 during the brew on the plus..on ice cycle near the end of the cycle
the only thing that iced coffe needs is 3-4 pumps of hazelnut syrup and lots half n half
I like heavy cream in it..
Jesus I am at 7:15 mins in and STILL no demo speed at 1.25…. Ugh
This video didn’t need to be 12 mins
Curious about how many ounces his glass holds? maybe 16oz?
His glass? What about his pipe?

I just used for the first time and most of my ice melted. Not good
Jesus Christ put some cream in that lol
This is more of a review than a "how to"
well, the title doesn't say "how to".
I am trying to find out how to use the keurig for iced coffee, not an analysis.
Lol then piss off and go somewhere else. Push the ice button and get on with it. This video is for info that most of us wanted.
You are fairly meticulous
Why are you using a glass cup? Dangerous
The instructions tell you to use glass although I bought some plastic cups and lids like they use in the to-go line at the coffee shop.
Good video but you spent too much time talking
