

How hot is the water in the K15 Coffee Maker?

The optimal temperature for brewing beverages in your Keurig K-Cup coffee maker is
192° F. This is the internal temperature of the water in your brewer. However, once your
beverage is brewed, the dispensed temperature can vary greatly. In-cup temperature
depends on the temperature of the cup and material it is made from. When brewing into
an insulated container, such as a foam or paper cup, 180-185°F in-cup temperature is
typically attained. In addition, dispensing into a cold ceramic mug will cool the beverage
significantly.
