Each pod creates a single serving of coffee in 3 selectable serving sizes to satisfy your personal taste. Now sit back and enjoy!

From the Manufacturer
Krups Home Café brews either one or two cups of coffee simultaneously to save time, and with two independent pod holders, each cup can be a different variety of creamy or black coffee. This revolutionary system features a sleek new look, several cup-sizes and, for even better tasting coffee, a water filtration system built into the removable water tank. Its Thermoblock-based heating system is ready to brew in less than one minute, and the state of the art powerful heating pump provides consistent and precise temperature control. Finally, the pressure brewing system (in the image at left) provides just the right amount of extraction for pod based coffee systems.

Customer Reviews for: Krups KP1010 Home Cafe Single Serve Coffee Machine
Rating - design flaw
When I opened the box and put my coffee maker together I noticed that the double pod holder could not be used. When I tried to close the lid to seal the coffee pods for brewing, the lid did not cover the pods, so I was unable to latch and seal for brewing. I kept the coffee maker and only use it for single pod making because I paid very little for the unit and really that is all I need for right now.
Rating - Great Brewer at the Right Price
The Krups Home Cafe brewer is one big leap in quality from the Black and Decker version. The B & D was the first pod machine I bought. Though easy to use and producing a nice brew, the cheaply made B & D was dead in the water almost a year to the date I bought it.
Krups has long been known for making fine products. I bought mine new for $100 but if you look on Amazon, E-Bay, Bizrate, etc, you can sometimes get it cheaper and even with low or free shipping.

Anyway, this unit isn't bad. It is big. I really didn't need the ability to make 2 cups at one time, but I did want to make more than a thimble sized cup of coffee for my So. Cal commute. I had the Black and Decker GT300. I was using the Presto MyPod with SB or Peets coffee in it. Not as good as my Cuisinart Drip coffee maker, but strong enough. The GT300 had the ability to make a ...
