Which company recalled millions of Keurig Mini Plus brewers in 2014 because hot water could spray from the machine?

Keurig Green Mountain recalled millions of Mini Plus brewing systems in 2014 because hot liquid could spray from the machine.

The recall covered the Keurig Mini Plus Brewing System in the United States and Canada. The company said the brewer could overheat during brewing, causing hot water, coffee grounds, or other contents to spray and burn users. The affected machines were sold from 2009 through 2014.

Keurig offered a free repair kit that included a replacement water reservoir and a filter assembly. The company also advised consumers to stop using the brewers until the repair was completed. The action followed hundreds of reports, including burn injuries.

The Mini Plus recall is distinct from later recalls involving other Keurig products. It also differs from recalls of coffee pods, which concern the consumable capsules rather than the brewer’s heating and dispensing system.
