Keurig K-Iced Single Serve Coffee Maker Review

A single serve brewer with a Brew Over Ice button for hot and iced coffee

Hot and iced coffee from one pod coffee maker is what the Keurig K-Iced is for: a Brew Over Ice button that starts hotter and then cools the brew, three cup sizes and room for tumblers up to 7 inches tall. It suits iced coffee drinkers who already use K-Cups; for hot coffee only, a plainer single serve brewer does the job.

Spec-led review. Built from the manufacturer’s published specification and price rather than hands-on testing. Figures we could not find stated are left blank instead of estimated. Updated when we get one in.

From $129.99

The Keurig K-Iced Single Serve Coffee Maker adds a blue Brew Over Ice button to a pod-style brewer, so one machine makes both hot and iced coffee. Keurig lists it at $129.99, with a brewer-only sale price of $59.99 shown on keurig.com on 2026-11-08.

What is the Keurig K-Iced Single Serve Coffee Maker?

It is Keurig's single serve brewer for people who drink coffee over ice. Keurig describes it as one multitalented coffee maker for refreshingly delicious iced coffee and full-flavored hot coffee. It has a 42 oz removable reservoir, three cup sizes, a Strong Brew setting for hot coffee, and the Brew Over Ice button that gives the machine its name.

Keurig sells it in two colors, White and Arctic Gray. It also lists related models called the K-Iced Plus and K-Iced Essentials, so check the exact name before ordering. This page is about the plain K-Iced.

Keurig does not publish the dimensions, weight, wattage or warranty on the page we read, so those are unknown. A starter kit deal was also shown at $29.99, but it requires a 1 year, 16 box Auto-Delivery commitment, which makes it a subscription deal rather than a plain price for the machine.

How does Brew Over Ice work?

This is the feature that separates the K-Iced from an ordinary pod brewer. Keurig says one push of the blue Brew Over Ice button makes the machine automatically adjust the brew temperature, starting hotter to extract full flavor and then cooling down to minimize ice melt. The aim, in Keurig's words, is a vibrant, balanced iced coffee that never tastes watered down.

That is the maker's description, and nobody here has tasted a cup from this machine, so there is no verdict on how well it works. What can be said is how it is set up to be used: you fill your glass or tumbler with ice, put it under the spout, and brew. The cup sizes are measured with the ice included for iced drinks, so a 12 oz setting is a full glass, not 12 oz of coffee on top of the ice.

The removable drip tray is built for tall vessels. Keurig says it accommodates tumblers and travel mugs up to 7 inches tall, and that it holds a full accidental brew for easy cleanup.

Keurig K-Iced vs Keurig K-Slim

The Keurig K-Slim Single Serve Coffee Maker is the sister model for a narrow footprint. It is listed at $149.99 regular price, shown on sale at $89.99 on keurig.com on 2026-11-04, and Keurig describes it as less than 5 inches wide with a 46 oz removable reservoir, 8, 10 and 12 oz sizes and MultiStream Technology. It also shuts off 5 minutes after the last brew.

The K-Iced matches those cup sizes and the auto-off time, has a slightly smaller 42 oz tank, and adds the Brew Over Ice button. The K-Slim's features here do not include an iced setting. So the decision is simple: iced coffee fan, take the K-Iced. Tight counter space, look at the K-Slim.

Keurig K-Iced vs Keurig K-Duo

The Keurig K-Duo Hot & Iced Single Serve & Carafe Coffee Maker (Gen 2) costs $219.99 list and was shown on sale at $129.99 on 2026-11-02. It also has Brew Over Ice and Strong Brew, adds a 12-cup glass carafe for ground coffee, a timer that can brew up to 24 hours ahead and a 72 oz tank shared by both sides.

That makes the K-Duo the pick when you sometimes brew for a group. The K-Iced is the lighter, cheaper machine that does single cups only. With a $70.00 gap between the two sale prices and a $90.00 gap between list prices, the single serve K-Iced is the straightforward choice for one person.

Is the Keurig K-Iced worth it?

At the $59.99 brewer-only price shown on keurig.com, the K-Iced is a low-cost way to get a dedicated iced setting. At the $129.99 list price the argument is harder, so it is worth checking the current price before buying, since sale prices change. You also need pods or a My K-Cup filter, and those are separate costs.

The Auto-Delivery starter kit deal looks cheapest at $29.99, but it ties you to a 16 box commitment. Read those terms before you accept, because a low machine price paid for with a long pod subscription is not necessarily a bargain.

Nobody tested this machine, so the only honest basis is the maker's specifications, the price you pay and your own habits. Keurig also says the machine brews the same full-flavored hot coffee as its other models, with fast, fresh-brewed cups made in minutes, which makes it a reasonable all-year brewer rather than a summer-only one. Those are the maker's words, and speed and flavor are untested here.

Who should buy the Keurig K-Iced (and who should not)?

Buy it if you drink iced coffee often, want one machine for hot and iced, and are happy with pods or a reusable filter. The tumbler clearance of 7 inches suits people who drink from a travel cup.

Skip it if you want to brew a full pot, in which case the K-Duo is closer to what you need. Skip it if you need to know the machine's size or wattage before buying, because Keurig does not publish them on this page. And if you want freshly ground espresso-style drinks, a pod brewer is the wrong tool.
