Keurig 2.0 Plastic Carafe 32oz Double-Walled with Easy-Pour Handle, Holds and Dispenses Up to 4 Cups of Hot Coffee, Compatible With Keurig 2.0 K-Cup Pod Coffee Makers, Black

This Keurig 2.0 Plastic Carafe 32oz fits and works with my Keurig 2.0 K400 coffee maker. I use a travel coffee mug and I get two fills from this carafe. Two mugs with only one brew time. It keeps the coffee hot for a good bit of time, too.

We needed this carafe because we do a lot of entertaining on a regular basis. However, my favorite part of the evening is the ‘after dinner’ conversation, but I miss quite a bit when I need to leave the dining room to keep bringing more hot coffee to the table. Furthermore, the re-telling of a story is never the same as the original telling, and everyone else has already enjoyed the final outcome.Over the years we have used thick walled plastic carafes, and our pretty porcelain coffee pitchers which were very hot when touched. However, neither one retains the heat and the coffee at the turned cold. This was such a waste, as reheated coffee just does not taste as good and therefore I had to throw the coffee out, and then of course I was back in the kitchen making fresh coffee once again.This stainless steel carafe fits right into our Keurig K200/K250 coffee brewer, and our Keurig pours the coffee directly into the covered carafe through a tiny opening under the handle. This keeps the coffee hotter because the carafe remains covered as the brewer dispenses the coffee directly into a covered carafe. Therefore the coffee does not cool down because there is no coffee transferring in the open air from the brewer to the carafe.This double walled stainless steel carafe has different advantages. Inside the carafe is insulation for the coffee which keeps it hot for hours, and yet the outside of the carafe remains comfortable to hold, therefore it doesn’t get hot to burn my hand. In addition, stainless steel does not rust and it’s very easy to clean and maintain.The carafe has a very comfortable handle, and the cover remains tight and secure while pouring. However it pulls off with ease to clean and I don’t need to tug hard, to remove it.During the several times that I have used the carafe, I have taken the temperature at different times. I did this to determine how long the coffee stays hot, and in addition the heat temperature of the remaining coffee.When the brewer first dispenses the coffee in the carafe, the temperature of the coffee starts off at about 175 degrees, which is within the ideal range for serving fresh hot coffee. Please note that this is NOT the same as the brewing coffee temperature, which is about 20 degrees higher. This is the ‘serving’ temperature which will not scald the mouth while drinking the first sip.ONE HOUR AND 10 MINUTES LATER, the temperature of the coffee in the carafe is at 158 degrees, which is still hot enough to enjoy. However, at this temperature coffee tastes more flavorful.TWO HOURS AND ½, the temperature was at 145 degrees, which is still very warm and the coffee flavor is delicious.AT SIX HOURS, the temperature of the coffee in the carafe had decreased to 118 degrees, which is tepid but still far from cold.Even though I originally bought this stainless steel carafe to serve when our guests come over for dinner, we are using it more often in the mornings. My husband and I like to read the morning paper, and enjoy more than just one cup of coffee each. Therefore, I’ll fill the carafe and we can have our second cup without going into the kitchen to make more. In addition, this will be even better in the warmer weather when we drink our morning coffee while sitting outside on our back deck.Although this carafe is an accessory for the Keurig coffee maker, it will serve the purpose for serving coffee, tea, hot chocolate or any other beverage. The cover does come off and I can use it separately from our coffee maker. The beverage will remain hotter, or colder than from any other container. In addition, the outside of the carafe will always be comfortable to handle.This is an excellent accessory for use with any beverage, especially if the beverage is hot. It is a useful addition for serving coffee from any kind of coffeemaker, just pour the beverage in and close the tightly sealed cap.

Helps to keep my coffee hot till I can finish the pot!

It works well enough. The lid drifts upward rather staying solidly seated.

I did not get the thermal version of this carafe. Although it des keep it at a hot temperature for a small bit, I would not recommend getting this product if you want to keep your coffee hot for longer than 30 minutes. Still, it is very cute and it was compatible with my Keurig 2.0.Over all i was happy with the product and it is absolutely perfect when you have company and want to serve some coffee up!

so great .. keeps coffee hot ... and nice to take outside when wanting to sit and relax and it stays warm

While this is not necessarily a bad product, it did not work with my Keurig 2.0 machine. Its built well and all that I suppose, but it does me no good if I cant use it. Just make sure its compatible with your machine.

Works well, doesn't keep coffee hot after a little bit. I made a pot and while getting my kids ready for school. Went to fill my mug before heading out the door and coffee was already cold and needed reheating( been about 5 -10 mins)

The media could not be loaded.  Okay, so this carafe is alright it holds the coffee and it keeps it warm.You will also need to buy the large orange carafe pods. We bought this Christmas dinners that didn’t happen.Problem is the lid of the carafe broken within a week of having it. We tried to contact keurig no response they don’t care.I still use the pot it holds enough coffee for my husband and I.

The carafe itself was OK. You must know that to unlock the carafe sizes, a K-carafe pod/reusable filter is needed, but keurig does not make the reusable k-carafe.. So we bought reuasable "carafe-friendly" filter but, even when filled at maximum capacity, coffee was not strong enough to our taste - we do drink stronger coffee.. In those condition, the carafe is just an item in our kitchen we would not be using - so we returned it.

The pods don't exist anymore and I've ordered 3 different reusable carafe pods and none of them are compatible with my K200 even though they say they are. Don't waste your money if you have a K200 because you won't be able to get it to work without the pods.

I was somewhat disappointed by this. It frequently will not make the 'pot'. The machine will error out with the same error you get when the needle is clogged and it is difficult to get the system to reset and brew. Also the formula seems a bit random. The universal coffee filter you use only has a certain amount of room in it and has markings for a cup and a travel mug. How does this make sense with the pot which has settings for 2-3 cups or 3-4 cups? This just means it is adding more water and the brew is getting diluted. If I fill the filter to the Max level and use 2-3 cups it tastes fine but this means it clogs often and does not work. If I put less coffee then the brew is not really very good.

This was to replace the carafe that came with our Keurig. The first thing I noticed was that the coffee stays hot much longer than the original. It is also a very good-looking carafe that you don't mind putting out for company
