The K Cup Carousel or K Cup Tree was designed to supplement the ease and convenience of the K Cup
Coffee Maker
by Keurig. One of the
outstanding features of single serve coffee is the speed, convenience and coffee flavor variations that are offered.
The gourmet flavors now extend to approximately 170 flavors. Just imagine the possibilities and versatility this will offer when
you have parties or guests at your home. Another potential problem is solved for families where some members of the family
drink decaffeinated coffee while others drink regular coffee.
When shopping for a k cup carousel, you must first decide how many of the K Cups you want to be available on the tree. Most
varieties offer between 25-35 of the coffee pods. The carousel feature allows you to spin the unit for easy access to the
k cups or coffee pods. Some descriptions will say the unit has a Lazy Susan base but the effect is the same. The
carousels usually come in chrome, brushed nickel, or black. Some carousels are made entirely of plastic.
The pictures above display the most common designs offered. These units are now pretty common and can be found online stores
like Amazon, QVC,
Green Mountain Coffee and others. Most of the brick and mortar stores will carry them also. A common
place to find these k cup carousel units is Bed Bath & Beyond. Most of the designs available will cost between $20-30. An
important note is that these carousel units do not come with the k cups. The K Cup Carousel is sold exclusive of the
K Cups
Coffee.
Another feature worth considering is the size and weight of the unit. One must consider whether their kitchen has the counter space
for the K Cup Carousel. Most of these k cup carousel designs are less than 3 lbs. The most common sizes are 8x8x12. Some units go as high as 13 inches.
