Keurig Brewing System Review and Giveaway


It was like Christmas when all of this showed up on my door step!
The Great People of Keurig sent
me my very own
Platinum Brewing System to try out!
And They're giving
one away to one of you too!!
Thanks Keurig!
As I'm sure you can guess.... I LOVE IT!!!!
My hubby and I are NOT big coffee drinkers but guess what...
It makes Hot Chocolate and FAST 25 seconds to be exact
(Yes I timed it).

From the moment I put the cup on the platform until it's done is 25 seconds.
I bought a "cheap" hot chocolate maker last year. It was such a mess and I had to totally clean the machine after each use. To boot it didn't even make it through one winter before it broke. It doesn't even start to compare to this Awesome Machine!!!
***
My Mom and the rest of my extended family are all coffee drinkers.
So I invited them over for a little taste test party!
It passed with flying colors. Everyone of them said that this
was REALLY GOOD COFFEE!
***
What I love is How Easy it is and How FAST it is to make
Coffee, Tea, or Hot Chocolate.
There's no clean up and it's always ready to make a cup.
Yes I said NO CLEAN UP!!!
You just keep adding water to the 6-10 cup holding tank and it's always ready!
***
The Platinum Brewer came with a sample box of K-Cups and then
they also sent me 4 more boxes of 24 K-Cups each.
K-Cups are the little cups that hold the coffee, tea, or hot chocolate.
It has the coffee already measured out in the K-Cup.
You simply put it in the machine and push 2 buttons and it's done!
The K-Cups can be bought online but also at many retailers including Walmart, Target, Sears, and many more.
***
The machine is very easy to learn too.
I figured everything out with in 20 minutes and fully knew how to use every aspect of the machine.
You can check out all the specs and features here at their site.
****
So are you ready to win one???
