[@spbaldwin]

My wife just bought me this machine and I already lost the instructions. This video is very helpful. Thank you!

Glad I could help!

Keurig k cafe is better than going to the coffee shop!

Thank you! Your video helped me decide to purchase this K-Cafe. I got it on sale and enjoyed my first cappuccino per your instructions. Lord willing, here's to the first of many more! God bless you.

It froths oatmilk beautifully.

I just love how Dad is creative with all the flavored syrups! Yummy!!!

Right?!

I’ve had mine for about 3 years now and still love it!

Me too, what is your favorite Drink you make with it?

[@ronschroeder585]

@@JustADad standard coffee, I love to use the milk whipper! Now my fiancé loves to make carnal lattes and any other flavor you can buy!!!!

@@ronschroeder585 Wow those sound great, thanks

Not a fan of KZbinrs but I love your reviews! Thank you, I have decided this is the machine for me! :)

Glad I could help!

[@LyorBensoussan]

Switched to this machine from a Nespresso and it's been nothing but coffee joy since... Great coffees, lattes and cappuccinos and the best part...30% cheaper than Nespresso...

[@willwright3396]

I put raw sugar in the milk to allow it to sweeten the cream for a better blend. Thanks for the video.

[@lonacorbus8752]

I have this and haven’t even known how to use it until now lol, I’m so excited to know all this, thanks a bunch!

[@JustADad]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@LanceMcGrew]

And now I know to create the frothed milk "then" add coffee shot. I have a separate stand-alone frother with same magnetic stirring. Glad I stumbled onto this video.

[@gottagift]

Last week i bought my first Keurig. It is a K-Supreme and I have decided to name him Karl. Seriously, my first Keurig and I love it. A year ago my automatic drip 12 cup machine quit on me and I had been roughing it since. I got to the point where I had to go to Sam's Club and pick up a new machine. The thing is, Sam's only had two Keurig models and another pair of espresso machines on the shelf. So I took the plunge and stepped into the world of K-Cup brewing. Very happy i did. Surprisingly, the K-Supreme I purchase for $109.00 is now selling for $139.00 at the very same store.

[@deawnabrantly5052]

Love your glass mugs. What size do you recommend for the Keurig K-Cafe?

[@peterdevries3651]

I love my keurig elite but I put it in storage when we had to move and didn't realize it had water in it still and it froze and busted the water pump now I have to get a new machine and thinking about getting this one. Nothing is better then a Keurig coffee in the morning!!!! We have had them for years.

[@MsPangY]

I’ve had this Keurig K - Cafe for a couple of years now and I love it!! It’s simple & that’s nice for a mom of 7!! 😢❤😮

[@dr_-nq1ju]

Got mine last month at Best Buy for $99.99 no subscriptions for the pods or anything! Love it so far.

[@jonathanmoreno-q6s]

Got it for 50$ with 16 box subscription still not bad cuz I get the machine for 50 and buy the 16box/year whichever comes first.

[@TruthSeekerNC]

I have watched several of your reviews trying to decide which hot and cold coffee machine I want. I think this is the one. Thank you so much for the in depth reviews. I actually found you through the Amazon product pages of the coffee machines I was looking at. Your reviews were attached to several and I can see why. Thanks!

[@JustADad]

Thanks so much, I hope I was able to help, this is an amazing Keurig, they sell it in black which can be cheaper and is the same exact machine.

[@angelatworoger8745]

I got this as an early Christmas present since my old coffee maker quit ♥️ I’m so excited to try it in the morning!

[@JustADad]

You will absolutely love this machine. Have fun with it and let me know if you have any questions!!!!

[@catolicaapostolicayromana7614]

Hi just a Dad, I bought this machine yesterday. Your tips are great and they look delicious! 👌

[@JustADad]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@ms_polished26]

Great review. I learned how to use the machine from your videos, thank you. I also tried the recipe you gave for the Starbucks iced carmel macchiato (my go to drink at SB) it honestly was so good if not dead on! Loved it and will make it again. Now I have to get those glass mugs. I'm thinking that'll be a great Christmas gift lol. ☕️

[@JustADad]

Thanks for Watching!!! Thanks for your kind words!! I am glad the iced Carmel worked out. I love my mugs. they are so cheap 6 for 20 bucks. amzn.to/3lPJOm9

great find, you will love this coffee maker!

[@dennisdaniels2992]

This layer drinks is so incredible!

[@JustADad]

They taste great also!

[@aadams0]

Hello, thanks for the video! Do you find the 'shot' to be comparative to an espresso machine shot in flavor by itself? Also, Can you place a reusable k-cup filter into it to use your own coffee? Thanks again

[@JustADad]

I do find the shot to be very comparable. but I don't drink it by itself. I always make a latte or cap. I made a video on reusable k cup kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnuboYGBgJuMY6M

[@gerardorueben653]

Hands down greatest review I have ever seen! Thank you Just A Dad🙌🏼

[@JustADad]

Wow, thanks!

[@MaryJane80]

I just ordered this!! They had this one on sale at the same price point as the charcoal one I’ve seen around ($179.99). Amazon has it at $179.99 as well plus a $27 clip coupon. I got mine at Target with 15% promo for cyber Monday I’m assuming but they also having $30 e-gift card promo. So basically paid under $130! Can’t wait to check out your other videos to get it set up once I get it.

[@JustADad]

Wow great find!!!!!

[@shannoninalaska]

Keurig has a sale today for 50% off this machine with a coffee pod subscription for 16 boxes within a year and those are 25% off. I paid a total of $155 for the special edition and 4 boxes of k-cups and free shipping.

Thanks! Just received this for Mother's Day and love the frother!

[@donnakenney2486]

I fixed my keurig with this video . Thanks!

[@Zowers111]

Hi JAD. I love your reviews and others have helped with my coffee catastrophes. LOL. I LOVE this machine. I love the large water tank capacity and the ability to make a 12oz cup of coffee. The frother is great but... it is somewhat inconsistent in my opinion. It does not always produce frothy hot milk every time. Sometimes the amount of froth is a bit underwhelming in my experience. The one negative thing I must say about this particular model is that it is MESSY. It leaves coffee splatter all over the counter surrounding the machine and on the wall of the machine behind the cup. I find I am constantly cleaning up coffee splatter from my countertop as it is white. No other Keurig machine has ever been so messy. All in all... keep a cloth nearby and this machine is great. This is my experience and may not reflect the general populations. LOL. Keep working on your great videos. I usually just use a bit of sugar and cinnamon on my lattes. I definitely will check out some of your recipes to amp up my latte game. LOL.

[@JustADad]

Thanks so much for you support and nice words!!! those are good points that I agree with.

[@Zowers111]

@M No, I'm fairly confident it is the model of machine as we had to return the first one we purchased due to the frother not functioning at all after 2 or 3 days. They both splatter coffee all around and I use fairly tall large mugs as I like to have a 12 Oz cup of coffee with a good amount of milk in it. So, I also noticed a much older model I often travel with also being a bit on the messy side. I put a paper towel under the drip tray and again with a large mug there was some splatter but nothing like the K-Cafe which I've remedied by putting a large dark coloured dish drying mat underneath the machine so it can splatter away and I can simply wash the dish drying mat.

[@firefly8400]

I love your videos!!! keep making them, very informative. thank you

[@JustADad]

Wow thanks so much!

[@millg5947]

Wow, very good video, delicious coffee, thank you, I want one of those machines❤

[@JustADad]

Thanks for watching!

[@MacSociety]

subbed. enjoyed your Keurig videos. Just purchased a Mini Plus and hope the wife and I enjoy it.

[@JustADad]

K mini plus is a great coffee maker

[@calivalley9056]

@Just a Dad, seen your video on this machine with the chai latte mix pod, but you should make a video making a chia using a tea pod then adding the latte froth. I searched youtube and there is not one that I could find, you could be the first. It would be perfect for this specific machine. Lastly, I bought this machine because of your videos, it’s amazing. Your efforts are appreciated!

[@JustADad]

Wow I am glad you like it. I love mine and I might try that drink, thanks so much for Sharing your story!!

[@mirandamcwhorter8247]

Get your self a pack of death wish espresso pods the purple ones. Really good coffee. Expensive around $20.00 it’s organic and a lot of caffeine. My k cup re design works great. Also available on medium (brown) and dark (red) bag. Bean and pre grounded.

[@vpss6403]

Great demo video...thank you. Gonna give it my first try with my new machine.

[@tlee8345]

Well done. Your review convinced me to purchase.

Thanks for watching I love this coffee maker the cafe is an excellent coffee maker

Thanks mate. Had to watch bc my wife just tried it and it spit coffee at her so i needed to see how to use.

Glad I could help!!! funny story, She will love it, its a very capable machine and you can make so many good drinks!!!

[@tldrafaik6144]

Wel...you just sold me on this. Time to get one lol. Great vid!

[@edwardblock5291]

I love the latte & cappuccino side of this machine. Do you think it’s possible to pull off ice coffee on the coffee maker side? I’m really trying to avoid getting two different machines. Thanks

[@JustADad]

yes just brew it on the small brew size

[@shanicegrande8631]

Keurig is currently having a Black Friday sale for this only $50 bucks, and I am so so happy. Buying one for for myself and one for my sister as a Christmas gift :)

[@ziddijatt44]

Just got mine today. Amazing machine all i can say. Love it. Wife who never drink coffee taste she even making lattes

[@Kimberlymogan]

We’ve had this for several years now and love it, recently we’ve had a couple issues I’d like to know if you’ve came across. 1) sometimes it will dispense about an ounce or two and then just shuts off completely. Usually after a brew it stays on so it’s not like it thought it did an entire cup was the problem. When you turn it back on, water will dribble out a bit and you can repeat the start and it will work. 2) this is the one that aggravates my husband most. Coffee grounds in the cup. We’ve never had this issue before. Could it be the k cups? I’m ready to just buy a new one after spending hours cleaning the entire inside, doing 4 descaling just in case, each followed by 12 rinse cycles like suggested and no change. Any ideas?

[@whiteopdad4256]

Thanks for the review I plan on getting this for my mom for Christmas

[@JustADad]

Glad I could help. She will love this Coffee maker!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@jonathangalvez9367]

Love your videos and got this Keurig for my parents. A question though by any chance do you know how to make the settings a bit hotter for the coffee side ? Not sure how to get it up higher since it doesn’t have a screen on the machine

[@JustADad]

make sure it is not in high altitude mode. I made a video on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fX7Kh6Nnjq6Fntk

[@teaglet1]

thanks for the video , Keurig doesn't give very good instructions on how to make different mixes.. now i know, love the machine..

[@jdminear2332]

I am just now discovering you and your videos. Nicely done! Really enjoyed this one. I am using your affiliate link in the comments to order. I have been watching other videos but not getting the information I needed to make a decision. This was very helpful!

[@JustADad]

Wow!! thanks so much!!! let me know if I can help!

[@MTLBIKERCHIK]

Can you put any pods from any company?

[@dennisdaniels2992]

Cappuccinos looks delicious!

[@mirandamcwhorter8247]

It was hard finding a keurig machine that I really needed. Best Buy had absolutely none. No Walmart. No target. I didn’t wanna order I wanted to make my coffee the next day. Next thing I need is a espresso machine.

[@SUZIEFROMSELDEN]

I’m not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Your video was great. Thank you. Can you do roofing?

[@dannykay4649]

How is the shot compared to a shot of espresso?

[@BrensBoutique]

Hi, thanks for the great video/demo! Could you please share with me where you got your glass mugs? I love all of the mugs you used here. Thanks :)

[@mirandamcwhorter8247]

I ❤️ Starbucks white chocolate mocha. Save money now.

[@JustADad]

Absolutely! Thanks for watching!

[@clay1671]

Mine started beeping at the frother when I plug it in everything else works but the frother is not happy great video

[@julianns3238]

Could you froth flavored creamer?

[@JustADad]

yes it does a great job with creamer

[@JennyLove1331]

If you want a double shot can’t you just brew 1 pods on the shot twice setting for 4 oz

[@scotw67]

Great video! I have the same unit. When I press CAPP, it blinks for a few seconds before it stays lit and starts frothing. Is that normal?

[@ianmoone1138]

I’m torn between trying this one and the Mr. Coffee Cafe Barista. Which one would you recommend produces the best results for doing lattes? Note: If using this machine I’d be using my own ground espresso with a reusable Kcup. Thank you for your input.

[@JustADad]

Tough call I made a video that might help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpevkn-oaLGel9U

[@MarquisGunderson-nx3zr]

Sutil, elegant simply to use and love the coffee maker.

[@kimberlyestrada501]

Which one will you recommend this one or the Ninja ??? Thank you in advance

[@TheRealPolly]

I've loved my Keurig Cafe for 4 years now. The only problem is that the lid to the frother keeps cracking and breaking. I've managed to talk the Keurig reps into sending me replacements for 6 of them now, but it keeps happening. I've never caused the issue by dropping or bumping them. I think the plastic just doesn't hold up to the heat and steam.

[@JustADad]

Yeah I leave mine off

[@MountainsnVallies]

Great video thanks! I’m looking at purchasing this even though I sold my other keurig this past summer 🤷🏻‍♀️ I watched a video on how dirty the inside gets and am concerned about how clean you can get the inside of the unit clean., so you don’t have mold or bacteria growing.. what’s your take on that?

[@JustADad]

I would not worry about that too much, at first I thought the same thing, but I have taken apart over 20 Keurig machines, some new some older with lots of use. I have not seen any mold or bacteria, not to say there was none but the tubing and water tank looked clean to me, If you keep up on Descaling you machine that will help alot. The only thing I would see was mineral build up on the heating element. You will love this machine!!!

[@MountainsnVallies]

@@JustADad now I just need to find the right coffee for me.. I have found it not strong enough 😕 even on the strong setting

[@aircommuter]

A little secret, you can skip pressing the coffee button just select 6,8,10,12 button and it will turn on the coffee light automatically same with the shot button for the latte light. If you want water with zero TDS for best taste and no scale get water filter called zero water.

[@JustADad]

Thanks for some great information!

[@ashleyhk22]

Are there any coffee machines that has milk frother, option for coffee pod and also beans

[@Kim1310]

Hi! I love your reviews I have the K-Cafe but Im liking your ninja dual brew pro which one do you prefer ? Im used to have coffee in a perculator and I feel the keurig tasted alot watered down! would Ninja be better? thankx !

[@JustADad]

If you mainly drink coffee then the ninja is the way to go. the K Cafe is great for the frohter, that is the main reason I use the k cafe is if I am making a lattee or capp, if I am just drinking coffee then the Ninja makes a way better cup of coffee, But If you are using the k cup, then they both make about the same tasting coffee with a k cup. where the ninja shines is it can make coffee with a coffee filter and normal ground coffee in lots of sized all way from a cup to travel mug to full pot.

[@nmernst]

I've enjoyed this machine for some time now 👍. This will do oat milk pretty well. I suggest Oatly original. If I want an espresso this will do it but not my favorite. Nespresso does that much better 😁.

[@nadiabagley3165]

Great great video!!! Even the temperature 😊

[@veeplopez5402]

I need this!! I spend so much money every week at Starbucks! Love Starbucks but if I can cut back to save money that would be great!

Is there a way to set the temperature higher for those of us that live at sea level?

[@kathyoreilly4696]

Excellent review!

[@DanicaElle]

Is it easy to clean?

[@relines-gj7pb]

how do you get a full cup of coffee? the k cup gets water logged.

[@courtneylia7383]

Technically they would both be considered more of a café au lait... But I do own this machine and definitely love it.

[@tmoney-p7n]

Does the ice coffee taste as good as the k-elite?

[@tmoney-p7n]

Can this be used for ice coffee as well?

[@gabrielabalderas5449]

Which do you think is the best option? K-caffe or k-latte ?

[@LibertyOrDeath87]

You can still use a reusable k cup right?

[@JustADad]

yes

[@vickrivera9625]

Question which one would you buy, this one or Ninja CFP301?

[@JustADad]

So these are 2 very different ones. I love both, if you need to make a full pot of coffee then the ninja. if you don't then I would get the K Cafe.

[@kimberly2321]

Hello I am a new subscriber and I love how you review all these coffee machines, keurig needs to cut you a check! On this particular one ☝️ the k-cafe does the coffee come out really hot bc i don’t want to put my coffee in the microwave after to get it hotter! I like my coffee really HOT

[@JustADad]

Thanks for subbing! Great Question. Does it make the hottest cup of coffee, no. but it is hot enough that you do have to wait a bit before you can drink it Yes. the cup of coffee comes out around 165 degree witch is kind of standard but maybe on the low end a bit. The machine is really a great option for the Frohter. it makes some amazing Cappuccinos and lattes. If you want a Hot K cup coffee then the K Supreme plus or even hotter the K supreme plus Smart, kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYWkp2ejYseei8U

[@kota11334]

I just got the k cafe. Does it make a weird noise when brewing on Strong coffee ? Almost sounds like a light helicopter noise. When on regular brew without the Strong, sounds normal. Thinking maybe the Strong is putting the extra power into it ? Thanks.

Hello?!?????!!?

[@mirandamcwhorter8247]

It is $229 at bed bath and beyond. It does more and then the other one was the k smart with wifi just makes coffee. I bought this instead.

[@emilyingram7597]

So, I just watched another demo by someone else. Which prompted your video next. So here I am. Lol! However, I’m wondering if it’s necessary to wait until the shot is brewed to begin the frother or vice versa? Is it preference? Or will the machine not allow a simultaneous brew and froth? I’m on a quest of videos to find the answer. 🤣 It’s a great video nonetheless and your drinks look delicious! Thank you!

[@JustADad]

Thanks for watching and this is a very common question, I made a video on it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKXPqJiclNymr68 The short answer is it has a mind of its own. sometimes it will do both at the same time and sometimes it will wait till the other is done before it does the shot or froths.

[@beckysalgado1553]

Great video. Such a detailed step by step. We just got ours and it stopped frothing 😰. The hot frother option doesn’t froth the milk. Only the cold latte option works. Any tips on this would be great. Thanks so much JAD! 🤍

[@JustADad]

Sorry to hear that, I took one apart and there is not much you can fix on this one, it has a big electronics board under it, sounds like it might be bad.

its a concentrated coffee that mimics an espresso shot.

Use a heated thick ceramic mug and it won’t cool off so fast.
