Coffee Aim’s Crux:
Keurig k-latte pretty much looks like Keurig k-classic but with an additional latte shot and a frother. It can brew 3 neat cup sizes of 6, 8, and 10 oz from its medium-sized water reservoir of 36 ounces. The reservoir is also removable and got a little handle shape for an extra strong grip. Its specialty is brewing concentrated coffee shots for lattes and a frother to give lattes the ideal creamy and cloudy look and taste. Its cool design and footprint compactness is enhanced by the folding up of the frother stand. The brewing is overall simple, easy-going, and flavorful for sure.

Having a boosting fuel for a human would be an extraordinary thing! Right? For your concerns, an extraordinary boosting fuel exists, “Coffee“—a great energy drink for empowering your day and night. Keurig machines contribute to your daily empowerment fuel by providing its Keurig k-latte coffee maker.

Overview

Brew with Keurig Coffee Makers like k-latte does put you in a serene moment. As the name says, k-latte does not mean it can brew latte shots only; you can have the option of brewing basic coffee. A milk frother is the spotlight of this machine. Besides, its frother, interconnecting features are also there to pour only the love, flavor, and aroma into your mug.

Let’s start with the spotlight frother. The frother is attached to the side of the machine on a stand that is flippable. It can froth different kinds of milk like almond, soy, and skim. Inside, the frother has a small whisk that can be removable. There is also a minimum and a maximum line on the inner sides of the frother. The minimum line is 4 oz, and the maximum is 6 oz. Frother also has a little deviant on the rim for easy pouring.

A medium size water tank of 36 oz is attached at the back of the brewer. It is removable and has a handle shape for easy picking and spillage-proof refilling. This reservoir has three brew cup sizes; 6, 8, or 10 oz. You can select the brew sizes by pressing the brew buttons on top of the brewer.

A SHOT button is also present just beneath the brew sizes button. By clicking this, the brewer will pass only 2 ounces of water through the k-pod for a concentrated, strong brew strength shot for lattes. It gives an espresso vibe but is not strong enough to reach the espresso machine level. After all, it’s a latte machine, not an expresso machine.

Other conveniences this brewer K-Latte provides are; its compatibility with my k-cup; so you can brew by using coffee grounds too, smart start technology; that brew and warms in only one process, and dispense hot water when the k-pod is not inserted in the brewer, energy efficiency for conserving resources, and its ability to fit travel mug sizes that are about 7″ tall.
