Keurig Introduces the B3000 Commercial Gourmet Single Cup Brewing System
Keurig’s Most Advanced Brewing System Specially Designed for Large Offices
WAKEFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS (January 15, 2007) – Keurig, Incorporated, a leader in the gourmet single-cup brewing revolution, announced today a new addition to its commercial brewer product line with the B3000 large office brewer. The B3000 is Keurig’s most advanced office brewer to-date and can be viewed at www.keurig.com/b3000 . The B3000 Brewing System replaces the Keurig B2000/2003 large office brewing system that began the Keurig Brewed® revolution in 1998.
Major advancements in the B3000 include:
Extensive Features for Large Office Brewing
- Large LCD screen that provides step by step user instructions... in English, French, or Spanish as chosen by the user!
- Plumbed mode that provides unlimited back to back brewing every 60 seconds
- 4 brew sizes including 4,6,8, and 10 oz. so every office gourmet coffee lover can choose their own brew strength
- Convenient automatic K-Cup ejection combined with a large, “easy open” used K-Cup storage bin
- Separate hot water feature built into the brew head for those who love hot soup!
The addition of the B3000 brewer provides Keurig distributors and gourmet coffee loving offices with a complete line-up Keurig single cup brewing systems.
For small offices the Keurig B140 brewer provides impressive placement flexibility with a 48 oz. removable water reservoir for pour over applications, and 3 brew sizes that allow coffee lovers to optimize the taste profile of their favorite K-Cup.
For mid-size offices the new B200 brewer will quickly become the OCS gold standard. The combination of plumbed/pour over capability and LCD interface will allow this brewer to complement a variety of office placement opportunities.
For large offices the Keurig B3000 system is now the ultimate Keurig brewer. It provides automatic K-Cup ejection and storage for high volume OCS placements—and includes a multitude of features that will make any coffee break Keurig Brewed® heaven.
All Keurig brewers use Keurig’s patented K-Cup® portion packs. K-Cups are “mini-brewers” that eliminate the hassle of grinding beans, measuring coffee, handling filters and messy clean-up while brewing a gourmet cup of coffee or tea in less than one minute. Gourmet coffees, teas and hot cocoa distinguish Keurig from its competition. With over 130 different coffee, tea and hot cocoa varieties from 12 gourmet partners, Keurig meets the diverse taste profiles of all its consumers. Keurig’s gourmet partners include Green Mountain, Diedrich, Gloria Jean’s, Timothy’s, Van Houtte, Celestial Seasonings, Bigelow, Twinings, Ghirardelli, Tully’s, Coffee People, Newman’s Own and soon…Caribou Coffee.
