The Keurig Setting You Don't Want To Ever Go Above

The Keurig coffee machine makes getting your cup of joe quick and easy, but if you're setting the machine to brew more than the ideal 6-ounce serving, you're making an error.

Since the amount of coffee within each pod is constant, selecting a larger serving size, say a 10- or 12-ounce serving, means you're adding more water to the mix.

By brewing a heftier cup, you're making a weaker coffee. A smaller serving size yields stronger coffee that's more in line with the ideal serving size for the pod's coffee content.

This may be fine if you simply want an approachable, mild coffee, but if you're a coffee drinker for whom every detail matters, it's better to stick to the 6-ounce serving setting.
