The Bottom Line
The Keurig My K-Cup Universal is the brand-name option designed to fit all Keurig brewers. Unfortunately, you pay for the brand name as it's easily the most expensive reusable K-Cup but doesn't outperform other options.

Keurig My K-Cup Universal Overview

It's not just third-party brands that make reusable K-Cups. Keurig also makes their own versions.

After all, who knows Keurig coffee makers better than Keurig.

But be careful when purchasing a Keurig brand reusable K-Cup, because they sell three different types:

  • Keurig My K-Cup for Keurig 1.0 brewers
  • Keurig 2.0 My K-Cup for Keurig 2.0 brewers
  • Keurig My K-Cup Universal for all brewers, including the new K-Classic Series

The My K-Cup Universal is a four-piece assembly:

  • Filter basket
  • Filter holder, which the basket goes inside
  • Lid, which secures to the filter holder
  • Adapter, which snaps onto the bottom for Plus Series brewers

I can hear you asking the big question now:

"If Keurig makes their own reusable K-Cup and it's compatible with every Keurig coffee maker, why isn't it number 1?"

Primarily price.

The Keurig My K-Cup Universal (and their other Keurig 1.0 and Keurig 2.0-specific versions) all cost a lot more than the Delibru Reusable K-Cup.

Plus, Keurig doesn't sell compatible paper filters. You can buy them from other companies, but now you're using two different companies for one reusable K-Cup. It's almost always easier to go with the one company that does it all: Delibru.

Pros
  • Made by Keurig to fit their own brewers
  • My K-Cup Universal fits all Keurig brewers
Cons
  • Much more expensive than other reusable K-Cups
  • Keurig doesn't sell paper filters for use in their reusable K-Cup

Keurig C K-Elite

Keurig C K-Elite
Overall Rating: 91
The made-for-CostCo version of the standard K-Elite, the "C" K-Elite is the exact same brewer but comes with a K-Cup variety pack, water filter starter kit, and the My K-Cup Universal pod adapter system.

Keurig K350

Keurig K350
Overall Rating: 85
One of our favorite values, Keurig 2.0 K300 series brewers are a big jump up from their K200 counterparts with a 60 oz reservoir, Temp Control, and more. Now discontinued, we recommend the Keurig K-Duo instead.

Keurig K145 OfficePRO

Keurig K145 OfficePRO
Overall Rating: 84
Keurig's most basic office model, the UL Commercial listed K145 has an underwhelming 48 oz reservoir and max 10 oz brew size, but the Drain Brewer function is handy and its sturdy build makes it great for heavy use.
About The Coffee Maven

Bryan De Luca

I'm Bryan but most people know me as The Coffee Maven. I grew up outside Boston, Massachusetts and received my Bachelor's degree in Biochemistry from Providence College. My first introduction to coffee was during my college days, when I used it as a source of caffeine to fuel late-night study sessions, but soon I became obsessed with the chemistry of coffee. How did changes to water temperature or contact time affect its taste? Why do beans from Africa taste fruity while beans from Indonesia taste spicy? I launched The Coffee Maven in February 2017 to explore these questions and help others brew their perfect cup. Welcome to my site, and thanks for reading!
