Sure, Keurig machines are known for making fast, easy brews. But just because they’re basically countertop-sized coffee vending machines doesn’t mean you can’t get fancy with your Keurig drinks—and the Keurig K-Cafe Barista Bar Coffee Maker is out to prove that statement true. This powerful little machine has the ability to create hot or cold coffee drinks, and even a comes with a standalone frother so you can whip up a latte in a snap. Best of all, while this Keurig typically retails for $140, it’s currently on mega sale at QVC (complete with the frother and a $40 voucher) for just $95. Coffee lovers, rejoice!

What’s the deal with the Keurig K-Cafe Barista Bar?
The K-Cafe Barista Bar takes the nuts and bolts of your regular Keurig and adds a bit of fun. Seriously: while you likely already get a mood boost from your morning joe, crafting a specialty drink with the K-Cafe Barista Bar can take that joy to another level. Just pour any type of milk—cow, oat, almond, you name it—into the frother and dollop a big ol bit of foam onto any drink, hot or cold. Should you start a tip jar for your kitchen counter? Probably.
One key highlight of this machine is how darn easy it is to use. First, you fill the detachable 42-ounce reservoir with water and select your favorite K-Cup pod. Once you’ve popped in a coffee pod, you simply press a button on the front display to create 8, 10, or 12 ounce drinks. It even gives you the option to brew a two-ounce shot or an iced coffee—as a cold-coffee lover the fact that this exists gets me amped. And, when the machine tells you it’s time to descale (aka, clean) there’s a button for that too.
Other features include an auto-shutoff button, high altitude mode, and an easy-clean drip tray.
