Power Button (does not illuminate)
Press to turn the brewer power on and off.
Add Water Indicator
Flashing Blue —Fill the Cold Water Reservoir
with cold water until it reaches just under the rim
of the desired level – 6, 8, or 10 oz. of the Water
Level Guide.
Handle Indicator
Flashing Blue — The blue light flashes when the
minimum water amount of 6 oz. has been poured
into the Cold Water Reservoir. After adding your
desired amount of water (10 oz. maximum),
lower the Cold Water Reservoir Lid. The light will
continue to flash until you lift the Handle.
Brew Button
Flashing Blue — Indicates you are ready to brew.
Press the BREW Button.
Flashing Red — Indicates water is heating
(approximately 2 minutes).
Solid Red — Indicates brewing and dispensing of
beverage has begun.
Your Next Brew
When the brewing process is complete, the Add Water
Indicator light will appear. At this point you can begin
making the next beverage, or you can power off.
Automatic Shut-Off
As a safety feature, your brewer will automatically
shut off at any stage when it is idle for longer than 90
seconds. Press the Power Button to restart. If it shut
off while the BREW Button was flashing blue, lift and
lower the Handle to reset.
Drip Tray Overfill Indicator
A red float will appear when the Drip Tray is almost
full. Carefully slide Drip Tray out and empty contents
into the sink.
1. Plug Power Cord into an Independent,
Grounded Outlet – If the electric circuit is
overloaded with other appliances, your brewer
may not function properly.
2. Initial Cleansing Brew – Before you make your
first beverage, perform an initial cleansing
brew without inserting a K-Cup
®
pack.
3. One Cup at a Time – Your new brewer makes
one fresh beverage at a time. You will need to
add fresh water each time you brew. Unlike
other Keurig
®
brewers, the K10 MINI Plus does
not store water in the reservoir.
4. The Right Water Makes a Difference – For the
best-tasting gourmet coffee, tea or hot cocoa,
Keurig recommends using bottled or filtered
water. We do not recommend using distilled or
reverse osmosis water. Note that water quality
can vary from place to place. If you notice an
undesirable taste in your beverage (such as
chlorine or other mineral substance), we
recommend trying bottled water or water from
a filtration system. For best results, carefully
follow manufacturer’s instructions when using
any water filtration system.
5. Customize Your Size, Flavor & Brew – With
over 200 K-Cup
®
pack varieties and multiple
fill levels, your brewer provides endless
customization options – so that you can create
the size, flavor and strength of each beverage
that is perfect for you. For a strong, intense
flavor, select an Extra Bold K-Cup
®
pack (with
up to 30% more ground coffee than regular
varieties) along with a brew size that’s right for
you. The less water you use, the more intense
the flavor in your cup. The more water you use,
the less intense the flavor in your cup.
Use the Water Level Guide located inside the Cold
Water Reservoir to customize your brew size.
6. Brewing Iced Beverages – Your iced tea and
iced coffee taste best when fresh-brewed hot
over ice. Try it by placing a tall cup filled with
ice on the Drip Tray, choose your favorite
K-Cup
®
pack and follow the brewing
instructions on page 8. Also, look for the
“Brew Over Ice” icon on K-Cup
®
packs specially
crafted to brew over ice! IMPORTANT: Do not
brew into a cup made of glass. Doing so may
cause the glass to crack or break.
7. Remove K-Cup
®
Pack After Use – Please see
page 8 for brewing instructions.
8. Brewing into a Tall Mug – To brew into a tall
mug, simply remove the Drip Tray Assembly
and place the tall mug on the Drip Tray Base.
Without the Drip Tray Assembly, however, you
do lose the benefit of the Drip Tray to contain
any excess water.
9. The Drip Tray – Any liquid overflow (from your
cup or from the Cold Water Reservoir) will be
caught in the Drip Tray. Be sure to empty the
Drip Tray when the red Drip Tray Overflow
Indicator pops up.
10. Automatic Shut-Off – As a safety feature, your
brewer will shut off automatically when it is
idle for longer than 90 seconds. Simply press
the Power Button to restart.
11 . Clean Your Brewer Regularly – To keep
your brewer looking and performing at its
best, be sure to clean the external and
internal components on a regular basis.
See page 12 for more information.
12. De-Scaling – Depending on the mineral
content of the water in your area, calcium
deposits or scale may build up in your brewer.
Scale is non-toxic, but left unattended, it can
hinder brewer performance. De-scaling your
brewer helps maintain the heating element
and other internal parts of the brewer that
come in contact with water. See page 14 for
more information.
13. Storing – When storing your brewer,
empty the Drip Tray. Follow the instructions
on page 14 for emptying the Internal Hot
Water Tank. Store your brewer upright in
a safe, dry, frost-free environment. See
page 15 for more information.
