preview

Skip to contentIn This Post...Keurig has added new members to its family of single-serve brewers. The new brewers, named K-Select and K-Elite, offer you the same delicious coffee and same convenience that Keurig has always brought to our homes, but it also offers a lot of improvement features and design wise.In this post, I’ll talk in details about each machine in the new line and how it compares to either new or older Keurig brewers.Let’s start with the main subject of this post, the comparison between K-Select and K-Elite:Keurig K-Elite Coffee Maker, Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Brewer, With Iced Coffee Capability, Brushed SilverKeurig K-Select Coffee Maker, Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Brewer, With Strength Control and Hot Water On Demand, Matte BlackAvailable Serving Sizes54Temperature ControlIced DrinkHot Water on DemandWater Reservoir Capacity7552Programmable Auto OnMore InfoCheck Latest PriceCheck Latest PriceKeurig K-Elite Coffee Maker, Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Brewer, With Iced Coffee Capability, Brushed SilverAvailable Serving Sizes5Temperature ControlIced DrinkHot Water on DemandWater Reservoir Capacity75Programmable Auto OnMore InfoCheck Latest PriceKeurig K-Select Coffee Maker, Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Brewer, With Strength Control and Hot Water On Demand, Matte BlackAvailable Serving Sizes4Temperature ControlIced DrinkHot Water on DemandWater Reservoir Capacity52Programmable Auto OnMore InfoCheck Latest PriceCup Sizes:Temperature Settings:Iced Drinks Setting:Hot Water on Demand:Water Reservoir Capacity:Auto-On/Auto-Off:The K-Select coffee maker will mostly remind you of its preceder the K55 model (now known as the K-Classic coffee maker). But they’re not the same (more on this later)… here are features of the Keurig K-Select:K-Select B is a bundle that packs more accessories includes: 24 K-Cup pods, 1 water filter handle and 2 water filter cartridges.Keurig K-Select Coffee Maker, Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Brewer, With Strength Control and Hot Water On Demand, Matte BlackKeurig K-Classic Coffee Maker K-Cup Pod, Single Serve, Programmable, 6 to 10 oz.

So, what’s the difference between them?Cup Sizes:Water Reservoir Capacity:Pod Compatibility:Controls:Strength Control:High Altitude Setting:Which Is Best? K-Select or K55 (K-Classic)?I do prefer the K-Select over the K55 for these features. You can read more about Keurig K55 here.No, it’s not part of Keurig’s discontinued 2.0 series. It’s part of Keurig’s ongoing line of machines and it’s still supported by them (as of 2022)Any refillable K-Cup pod should be compatible with the K-Select. I would recommend you go for Keurig’s My K-Cup pod which is a guarantee fit.Yes, your purchase should include one water filter cartridge to get you started.The Keurig K-Elite brings even more features and style to your coffee brewing experience:No, it does not. It has an auto on option, which means you can set it up to start at a certain time, then it will heat up the water and keep it ready in its internal tank. (learn about the difference between auto on and auto brew here)Yes, it includes one water filter cartridge with your purchase.No, it doesn’t Espresso. Instead, you can use ‘espresso style’ pods to make really strong coffee similar to an espresso.No, it is not.Yes it is compatible with all refillable pods, including Keurig’s My K-Cup Pod.Keurig 2.0 is another line by Keurig (it has been discontinued), and its biggest feature is that it can brew a full pot in addition to single-serve sizes. This is something that Keurig K-Elite or K-Select can’t offer.There are several models in the Keurig 2.0 line, which you can read our full guide about here. But here are the main differences between Keurig 2.0 vs. K-Elite:Cup Sizes:Pod Compatibility:Controls:Strength/Temperature Control:Which Do You Choose?If you currently own a K-Classic (K55/K50) Keurig Brewer, you’ll get some benefits from upgrading to a K-Select brewer:If those are things you feel like you’re missing on from your current brewer, then an upgrade would be a good idea for sure.Going from a K-Classic to K-Elite would make much more sense and a difference in your experience, the K-Elite gives you:I list ‘High Altitude Setting’ as a feature for both K-Select and K-Elite brewers. But what does this feature do exactly? And do you really need it?Keurig coffee makers are designed to be used at areas elevated at 6,000 ft at most. If you live in an area higher than that, Keurig recommends two things:The High Altitude setting on K-Select, K-Elite and some Keurig 2.0 machines automatically adjusts the parameters of the machine to avoid any problems that can come due to high altitude so you don’t have to keep adjusting temperature manually. If you live in a high altitude area, it’s highly recommended that you either buy a Keurig with High Altitude setting or a machine with adjustable temperature settings.Latest posts by SaraThe owner of this website, , is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking coffeegearathome.com to Amazon properties including, but not limited to, amazon.com, endless.com, myhabit.com, smallparts.com, or amazonwireless.com.
