Hi, Joe... I received my Keurig K-Duo Special Edition model just yesterday. It has all of the features your demo model has, except it didn't come with a generic K-Pod for my own coffee grounds. I've also had several previous models over the years that were very simple to operate. Anyway, I've had a devil of a time to get either the carafe or single-cup buttons to work according to the instruction pamphlet. Last night after about 30 minutes, I was finally able to get a cleansing brew done. Afterward, when I attempted a carafe brew, the lights alternated between the carafe and single-cup even after hitting the carafe button. The same happens with the single-cup attempt. The brew size lights do intermittently flicker to determine how many cups I wish to use but this was also not functioning well. Do you have any advice, or do you know of a troubleshooting video that can address this issue?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Oh no! Sorry to hear about that. Let me see what I can dig up about that. You can't possibly be the first to have that problem.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Here goes what Keurig says about it: If the buttons are non-responsive, please first attempt to press the POWER button. If this does not work, try unplugging the power cord and plugging it back in (after a short period of time). Then, try pressing the POWER button. If this doesn't work, please call Keurig® Customer Service at 1-866-901-BREW (2739).

[@pennynutter]

Mine did not come with the reusable cup. Where canI get one?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You mean the little one for the kcup slot? I grabbed that on Amazon. It didn't come with the machine.

[@TheFamilyONetwork]

This is why I love KZbin. My wife got me a Keurig Kduo for Christmas and I figured I was doing something wrong when the carafe kept overflowing in the coffee filter. I would put the carafe mug under it with the lid open so it was not pushing up the coffee drain so the coffee flows freely and was causing it to overflow. Thank you for this!!! I was about to take it back thinking it was malfunctioning.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

No problem! Glad I could help! On a funny note, when I got the notification of your comment, it truncated it and it said "This is why I love You". I was like.. Whaaaaaat??? Ha haaa! Have a happy New Year!

[@melissajones1574]

Great review. Not boring, straight to the point & highlighted it’s features!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Thanks, Melissa!

[@Glitterip]

Holy cow!!!! We just got this for $79! I knew it was a good deal at that price! The regular k cup only keurigs are usually like $59, not sure if that’s when they’re on sale or not but either way I thought $79 was really good. Thanks for this video! It’s very helpful! Now I know what to expect when I set it up! It’ll be cool to use the auto brew feature or whatever it’s called. We’ve never had good coffee makers (if any) in our lives lol which is funny, cause we’re young, like 25 years young. Awesome video, I’ve subscribed!!!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

You're welcome! I'm to the point where I just put the coffee in a plastic bag when it's done and set it on an I.V. drip. Ha haaaa.

[@shawnm2597]

We went with the gen 1 version of this on sale for $79. It doesn't have the clock or scheduling features, but we don't usually use that feature anyways. We have had it over a year and it is still working fine. Our cabinets are a little higher than most so it is not a problem to remove the tank and add water that way. We also bought a coffee pot trolley that we can sit the whole pot on. Then we just squeeze a couple tabs and roll the coffee pot out from under the cabinet if we decide to just add water without removing the tank. We may get the newer one only because the gen 1 version only gives you the options of 8, 10, and 12 cups/oz. pot/cup. The gen 2 gives you the additional option of 6 cups/oz of coffee. Which we would use the 6 cups of coffee almost daily in the morning. Overall though we liked the price of the gen1 and went with that for now and have been happy ever since.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Nice! How is the carafe design on that one? Does it drip as much as the K-Duo?

[@argplaysteamfortress2871]

Sue You are absolutely right about the expense, especially if it stops working after a year and a half. My daughter’s Keurig is now doing the same thing mine did(making only 2 cups at a time, then quitting altogether). Very disappointed in Keurig, they were of no assistance.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

It seems like Keurig as a company has always had issues with that injector for the k-cups konking out or getting clogged and not working anymore after a year or so.. Not sure why that is. It seems like coffee makers from other manufacturers that do the k-Cups also have a different design on the injectors that might be a little better... in the short term, anyway..

[@Jess1234]

[@timturner9315]

I miss having a clock and a timer on my Keurig Duo... but it doesn't take long to brew.

[@mysterc2862]

I was on the fence about buying this, which is why I’m here lol, great review!! I do agree with you about the time resetting on appliances being annoying and a watch battery would solve this issue. My guess is manufacturers dont want to give consumers access to the internals of the machine to actually change the battery. Or possibly it has somthing to do with how they waterproof the circuit board. Typically if you open the machine it voids the warrenty so maybe they just don’t have a good way to do this without passing on the extra cost to us. Idk but I agree it is annoying

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Thanks! Appreciate you taking the time to watch. I actually have 2 small appliances that I'm doing reviews for that do keep time settings when you unplug them.. A Zojirushi rice cooker and a Revolution smart toaster. I don't see a compartment on either one for the battery though, so I'm assuming it's something like a CR2032 battery or something like that (the same as on computer motherboards). Probably can keep the time accurate for 4 or 5 years or so.... Or maybe 3 days after the warranty expires. Lol

[@FrankNStein-mr1mp]

Just bought one of those kduo, and the pot drips all over the place, just like in your video. I end up with a mess. You're right, the spout on the carafe needs to be a more pointier shape!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yeah. I don't get how carafe got through the design phase. For a minute I thought there was something wrong with me and I was just sloppy or something.

Your review was - dare I say it? - phenomenal. I almost bought this because I've had several Keurig machines before but wanted a 2in1. However, after watching your Ninja Dual Brew Pro video, I decided to go with that. I haven't looked back since. That said, the only things I miss is that Keurig machines allow for re-usable k-cups (Ninja doesn't), the Keurig machines have water filters, and the reservoir lights up on some Keurig machines, which looks pretty cool.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Thanks! Yep... All stuff that I missed a little too. The filter wasn't too bad for me though since I always run the water going into it from a brita pitcher anyways. The reusable k-cup thing was a bummer tho.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Heya, Richie. Yep.. Still going strong, and we use it twice a day. We almost always use the carafe side, though. Have only used the single serve a handful of times. The wife and I drink TONS, so we have to keep a pot going all the time. Lol. That's a nice price you got on that. I think it's worth it. I like having the flexibility there even if we don't take advantage of it all that much.

[@bleurose8380]

Hey Joe i've had this pot for almost a year and a half. I agree with you about the spout. I pour over the sink. Mine cost me about $60. I got it on sell plus employee discount. Every since I cleaned it it makes a noise like the water has a hard time dripping out. We use the pot but k the most.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Could be that the K-Cup metal injector thing is clogged a little? That's a common problem with the Keurig K-Cup ones. Does it do the same thing when brewing a pot?

[@bleurose8380]

[@vebo6380]

I love the coffee maker, but the carafes have issues. Replaced the original carafe because it spilled every time I poured a cup of coffee. I then replaced it with a used one from Goodwill thinking it would fix the problem, but still had the same issue. I then called Keurig and explained the problem and they sent me a replacement free of charge. It also had the same issue. I thought it was a defective seal between the glass and plastic, but learned from your site that it was just a poor design. So, I will just have to deal with it. Next coffee maker will be a different make and model.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Hi, Vebo. It's too bad about the K-Duo.... That carafe design really does spoil it. It could stand to have a few more brew sizes available, too... but spilling the coffee down the front of the counter-top every other day really gets annoying!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Sweet! Glad I could help ya out!

[@jaydee5156]

We're looking at this model, but I immediately have a couple of negatives. First is ergonomics and involves the control panel and display located on top instead of front mounted. Second involves the fact that electronics are mounted on a moving part. Every time the cover is opened and closed, the wires are being stretched and flexed. I could see that leading to premature electrical issues, compounded by the fact that hot steam rises, potentially leading to electrical issues. The carafe issue you mention would be an immediate pass.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yeha.. That carafe is horrible. We are using the Ninja Dual Brew Pro right now. I like that one a lot better.

Hi. How can i make 4 cups of coffee in the carafe side?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

There should be some numbers on the control area of the coffee maker. The numbers correspond to total cups.

[@tonypantoni2717]

@JoesPhenomenal if there is then I do not see it anywhere. Can you tell me where you saw it st? Thanks

[@timturner9315]

@@tonypantoni2717 You have to fill the water container up to about 6 cups to make it work... or, I fill it up for 4 cups in the container in back then set it for 6 cups and it will run out of water, leaving you with 4 cups. That's how I do it. Practice makes perfect.

[@farahuskysadi]

That timer soo cool.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Thanks, Fara!

[@amiralions2681]

One more negative is not making the carafe thermal so that the coffee doesn't burn when you don't finish the whole pot right away. If the Supreme Plus Smart and the K-Duo get combined and they add a thermal carafe then that might be worth consideration.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yeah.. that carafe is pretty problematic... Do you get the feeling that the whole potted coffee idea was just kind of thrown on there willy nilly?

[@amiralions2681]

@@JoesPhenomenal Yes, especially since bonus pack of the old 2.0 came with a carafe and samples of giant k-cups for it. I was surprised to see you had to break out paper filters. I loved my old 2.0 and I used it until the wheels came off!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

@@amiralions2681 Yeah.. haha.. I just used the paper filters that came in the box. I have one of those re-usable ones now in our other coffee maker. Those Giant K-Cups were kinda cool... I forgot about those!

Great review!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

[@timturner9315]

So how would you Brew only four cups in the craft? Would it work to just pour 4 cups of water into the storage tank and then select six cup brew but it only make four and stop?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yep... That's how you gotta do it. You'll end up with a little extra in the pot, but I suppose that's nice if someone wants a warmup.

[@leahrolan1265]

Noticed no water filter in the reservoir but there is a rear reservoir filter. Do I need it?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

They have those charcoal ones which do a pretty good job, but I never really worried too much about it, since I just use filtered water in the machine anyways. Definitely it's a good idea, if you're using tap water though. It will extend the life of the coffee maker quite a bit. Also, you can do descale brews every so often with a white vinegar and water mix as well.

[@romeobravo5.56]

Excellent review! I agree, the reservoir in back and the carafe spilling for a simple pour will be problematic - otherwise a nice design.

[@mamaof2933]

I am getting a 3rd replacemnet from Keurig since December 25,2021. This last rep was honest and told me they have been having issues with the Duo. She apologized and told me they're instructed to replace if troubleshooting over the phone does not work. She also gave me two boxes of my choice off their website of 24 count k-pods. Be aware before you buy!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Hey! Thanks for the great addition and info! Much appreciated. This seems to have been an issue for Keurig for as far back as I can remember, and It's something I should havce pointed out just as an FYI. Through my research of this (leaving out a history lesson of the inventor), the actual mechanism that keurig uses to stab the pods and inject the hot water, etc., has always been problematic. It has a tendancy over time to get jammed and clogged and there's only so much that can be done to keep it clean. It seems like there is a large percentage of keurig brewers across their line that will fail due to this pretty quickly if you use them a lot. Keurig owns green mountain coffee though (which produces most of the kcups you buy), and the profits on k-cup sales far surpass the profits on the machines.. so instead of fixing the problem on the machines, it's cheaper for them to just give you a new one so you keep buying k-cups. I have a review up here for Ninja's top coffee maker, which also supports k-cups, and the design of the injector looks totally different... not sure if it's better over time, but it's interesting. Here goes the link if ya anna see. Thanks!! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d36khnZrpciKr9k

[@tyronewalker5764]

What sort of issues, looking to up grade 5yr old machine?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Keurigs a po tof times have issues with the kcup injectors getting clogged in a way that cleaning can't fix. It's kinda of a design thing that keurig has been plagued with for a really long time. Some people never have the problem though.

[@McPh1741]

Great review. I have a question. I know you said that you don’t use the single side much but I was wandering if you can answer this for me. My wife and I get up at different times. Right now we have a regular Keurig and a Ninja coffee bar. She uses k-cups and I use the Ninja to make a pot so I can fill my thermos for the day. My question is, if you set the timer for the carafe, can someone use the single without effecting it? Example: I set the timer for the carafe before bed, my wife wakes up a couple of hours before me and makes a cup using the single side and then turns the machine off again, is the timer still active for the carafe?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

That's a good question... I will try it and see what happens.. Will get back to you later and let you know!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Yep... If the timer is set, you can still use the kcuo side..... When you turn it on, and it already is set to auto, it will only let you make a kcuo actually, unless you turn off the timer.

Is there a way to turn off the caraffe pause brewing feature? Sometimes I make tea in my coffee maker and want to steep it for a few minutes.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

With this machine, the brew never actually pauses... When you pull the carafe during a brew, a mechanical stopper just drops down so nothing spills on the hot plate, but if you don't put the pot back pretty quickly, the resovoir up top will fit up and spill over. I don't believe there is a way to temporarily stop and restart the brewing though.

Can you use a different carafae so it doesn't spill?

Hi! Thanks for reaching out. The Duo has a timer so you can set the time you want it to brew, and the number of cups that you want it to brew into the carafe. It will keep the hot plate turned on for a couple of hours after the brew finishes to keep the coffee hot as well. Is that what you needed to know?

I'm confused. It's a 60oz reservoir, but the maker can do a 12-cup carafe of coffee? Isn't 12 cups actually 96 oz?

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Sounds weird, huh? The reservoir holds 60, but the machine holds a certain amount inside of it as well... You notice it most when you first make coffee after purchase and it seems to suck in a ton more water than it needs. Subsequent brews will have that water stored in it already though and you add as needed... Also, the capacity of the carafe is qw cups, but if it were actually filled that high it would be too full, so it brews something below that. The marketing is a little misleading on that, kinda like when you buy a car and thr mpg seems to be some fictional number.

After having a single Kcup maker for years we craved a pot being made on the weekends. Researched a bunch of models and choose this one. kzbin.infoUgkxL8yFdHfPF4ObeIwJ5JdM3i_9XLnbjUC2 We love it! We wanted a water reservoir for the single cup so we didn’t have to pour water in every cup but the other models it fed the water to the coffee pot to so by the time we made one pot we’d have no water left. This model has the traditional pour in feature for the pot and the reservoir for the cup which works great for us. Love how there is a bunch of holes pouring the water over the coffee, makes it taste much better. Only drawback I have is the way the lid is angled on the pot section it’s hard to get the last bit of water out of the pot into the machine without it spilling somewhere else.

It does. The reservoir on the back feeds into the machine. From there it has separate paths for the kcup adapter and the brew basket.

That would be nice.

Dude you didn’t cover programming

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Ugh! Did I miss that? I'm sorry. I did a comparison video with that and the ninja dual pro, and it's in there but I must have left it out of this video somehow. Will give you a quick rundown on that. Basically, you just load the water and the coffee grounds, turn it on, hit the program button, and then you use the buttons to cycle the time for start. Once you have that in there it will ask for the size of the brew by lighting up all the size buttons. All you do from there is select that, and then it will shut the machine down with the program light on. That's about it... Takes about 20 seconds to set it, and I believe it keeps the warmer plate on for 2 or 3 hours after the brew completes. The program feature only works for coffee in the carafe, though. So no support for kcups on the programming side.

$98.00 at Walmart!

[@JoesPhenomenal]

That's a deal.

[@petervansan1054]

Watch this and don't buy e-waste like that. Or any keurig. Buy a grinder. Then enjoy coffee

[@gram8821]

I’ll save everyone the trouble, don’t get one. Right out of the box mine wouldn’t even turn on.

[@JoesPhenomenal]

Well, that sucks. Sorry that happened to ya. These days I tend to give these small appliances a second chance. If the first one is messed up, I chalk it up to damage during shipping or bad luck or something.... but if I get a replacement and it's bad, too.... Well, that's enough proof for me.
