This hands-on Keurig Supreme Plus review cuts the noise to evaluate if upgraded offerings like multi-steam technology, modern design, and multiple customizable features legitimately level up the hype and taste.

Keurig K Supreme Plus | Our Verdict
Overall Rating (4.5/5)

The Keurig Supreme Plus is a great choice for coffee lovers who want the best possible taste from pod machines. Its multi-stream technology evenly extracts the coffee, resulting in a cup that is richer, more flavorful, and more consistent than what you’ll get from other pod coffee makers.

Keurig K-Supreme offers a wide range of customization to streamline brewing. Larger water reservoir, digital display, 3 strength settings, 3 Temperature Control levels, and option for iced coffee.

Yes! Keurig Supreme Plus is a little pricey but I must say the unique multi-stream technology actually makes a more flavorful cup of coffee and the advanced customization features are surely worth it.

Keurig k-supreme plus Review (A Detailed Go-Through)

1) Design and Appearance of Keurig K Supreme Plus (5/5)

The thing I like the most about Keurig Supreme Plus is its modern, minimalistic, and sleek design. Even after having many advanced features and a large water reservoir, this model doesn’t have a bulky appearance like other premium Keurig models.

The machine is wrapped in stainless steel, giving it a premium look.

Keurig K-supreme Plus has a 78-ounce water reservoir on the left side of the machine (which is not multi-positional as in the simple Supreme Model).

On top of the Supreme Plus, there is a circular button display that allows you to easily select your desired brew size, temperature, strength, and over-iced settings.

Overall, I am very much impressed with the design of Keurig Supreme Plus.

2) Performance of Keurig Supreme Plus (4/5)

Performance-wise, I would say there is no match. The Keurig K-supreme coffee maker makes it a breeze to brew either a regular serving of coffee or a small, espresso-style shot to your liking.

The heating time of Keurig K-Supreme Plus is around 90-120 seconds for the first brew and 30-40 seconds for subsequent brews, which is really fast. Plus, you don’t have to wait for the machine to finish heating you can insert the pod and select the brewing parameters right after turning the machine on.

As the machine is compatible with all types of K-cup pods, you can experiment with varieties of K-cup to experience the best coffee experience according to your desired taste. You can brew iced coffee, tea, cocoa, and other coffee drinks within a minute.

Refilling the tank is pretty easy and the machine brewing calibration is extremely perfect.

Another good thing about Keurig Supreme Plus is the quiet brewing process it doesn’t make any annoying noise during the operation and continues to brew silently.

Overall, I am satisfied with the performance of Keurig Supreme Plus.

Issues with Keurig Supreme Plus

Since the Keurig Supreme series is new some customers face issues like the lid of the water tank being very tight which creates a vacuum and makes it difficult for the machine to pump water. And some customers have also complained that their Supreme Plus machine died in less than 6 months.

However, you can easily replace the machine within the one-year Warranty period if you face any issues.

3) The taste and quality of the Drink (4/5)

Over the years, many coffee lovers have debated that the quality of coffee is not up to mark with pod-based coffee machines. It’s true that pod-based machines don’t offer the best cup of coffee, but their unique selling point is convenience and speed.

I usually give a 2 or 3 star rating to pod-based coffee makers but the Keurig Supreme Plus with its multi-stream technology and the strong brew features deserves 4 out 5.

Multi-stream technology uses 5 needles instead of one to evenly saturate your coffee grounds with multiple streams of water to achieve maximum extraction and flavors.

If you have been using K-cup coffee makers for a while I am sure that you will love the taste of coffee from this upgraded machine.

This innovative multi-stream technology extracts more flavor and aroma from the coffee grounds, resulting in brighter and stronger drinks.

Be sure to choose a universal reusable coffee filter with five holes on the lid if you are using your own ground coffee instead of K-cup pods.

Another good thing for strong coffee lovers is the option of a 4 oz brew size that makes strong and intense small shots of coffee that pairs perfectly with milk-based coffee drink.

And also you can adjust the strength of coffee from mild to strong.

Overall, I am quite satisfied with the taste of the coffee drink from Keurig Supreme Plus and I must say it’s better than other K-Cup Machines.

4) Ease of use and maintenance (5/5)

All Keurig models are highly convenient and easy to use and their innovative technology grabs the attention of coffee lovers, fortunately, Keurig K-Supreme Plus continues its tradition of being simple, user-friendly, and efficient.

All you need to do is insert the K-cup of your choice, press the desired coffee size, adjust the temperature and strength of your choice, and the machine will do its magic and prepare freshly brewed coffee for you within minutes. How easy that is!

Temperature control, strength setting, different flavor profiles, and labeled digital screen make the brewing process so much easier, even if you’re a complete beginner you can easily use this machine.  

Maintenance and cleaning are also pretty easy. You just have to remove the used pod and clean the pod holder after every brew and the machine is ready for the next cup.

The descaling process is also very simple, just fill the tank with the descaling solution and water and run the brew cycles until the tank is empty.

Overall, Keurig Supreme Plus is the quickest Keurig model and the most user-friendly.

5) Value for money and customer reviews (4/5)

Keurig Supreme Plus costs around 200 dollars and yes it’s way more expensive than other pod-based single-serve machines.

But the extra features this machine offers: modern and sleek design, up-to-date multi-stream technology for better extraction, programmable preferences, and greater customization options are definitely worth the investment.

Keurig Supreme Plus has almost 7000 reviews on Amazon with a 4.3 average rating out of 5. More than 75% of users are completely satisfied with the machine. Customers love the modern design and the taste of coffee prepared through the latest multi-stream technology.

Of the bad reviews, many users are concerned with the reliability and longevity of the machine. However, Keurig has good customer support and will replace or repair your machine free of cost if anything happens.

Overall, I am not satisfied with the price tag of this machine it’s way too expensive for a pod-based coffee maker. But if you can afford it you will surely love it.

SOme Useful Features of Keurig k-supreme plus

Let’s discuss some of the great features of Keurig K-Supreme Plus that make it stand out from many Keurig coffee models.

1- Coffee Strength settings

With the Keurig K-Supreme Plus, you can brew regular, strong, and extra-strong. In contrast, the older Keurig K-Supreme offers only regular and strong.

The extra strong option slows down the flow of water to increase the contact time between water and grounds in the pod, resulting in better extraction.

2- Temperature control

Keurig Supreme Plus has three temperature settings, so you can experiment with different drinks at different temperatures until you find the right one for you.

At full hot settings, the machine delivers coffee at around 173 degrees, and at less hot settings, it delivers coffee at 165 degrees.

3- Brew size options

Keurig Supreme Plus offers five different cup sizes 4oz, 6oz, 8oz, 10oz, and 12oz. The 8 oz size is perfect for a regular serving of black coffee, while the 4 oz size is ideal for milk-based drinks with a strong coffee taste.

4- Programmable Preferences

Keurig K Supreme Plus gives you the freedom of setting 3 different programmable preferences.

Using this feature, you’ll be able to brew coffee with only one button and you won’t have to adjust the temperature and strength settings every time.

5- Over Iced settings

Keurig K-Supreme Plus features over-iced settings for preparing cold coffee. The Over Ice button brews a more concentrated, intense, and less hot 6 oz cup of coffee that pairs perfectly with Ice Cubes

Keurig introduced the K-Supreme coffee maker line in 2020. The main difference between K-Supreme coffee makers and the rest of the Keurig model is the introduction of multi-stream technology.

So feature wise Keurig Supreme Plus is definitely better than the Keurig Supreme and the Keurig Supreme Plus Smart is obviously the most advanced model of all.
