The coffee maker is capable of brewing coffee in just 90-seconds thanks to its pod-style design, which offers an adjustable brew strength and options for eight, 10 or 12-ounce serving sizes. A 40-ounce water reservoir inside keeps the unit functioning for many cups of coffee before needing to be refilled. The Instant Solo Coffee Maker works with Keurig K-Cups and also comes with a reusable basket for use with any brand or style of grounds. The appliance works by gently soaking coffee grounds with hot water to ensure the utmost attention to flavor extraction and quality. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 76% | Activity: 61% | Freshness: 12% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Ultra-slim Appliances:** Opportunities for other kitchen appliances to be designed in a similar ultra-slim fashion to maximize counter space - **Single-serve Coffee:** Demand for single-serve coffee options will continue to grow, with opportunities for further customization and personalization - **Innovative Coffee Brewing Methods:** Continued development of new and unique coffee brewing methods that prioritize flavor extraction and convenience ### Who This Affects Most - **Kitchen Appliances:** Opportunities for companies specializing in small kitchen appliances to develop more space-saving products - **Coffee Industry:** Continued growth and innovation within the coffee industry, particularly in the single-serve market - **Smart Home Technology:** Opportunities for coffee machines to integrate with smart home technology, with the ability to be controlled remotely through an app or voice assistant ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Three-in-One Coffee Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instant-dual-pod-plus.md) - [Single-Cup Workstation Coffee Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brewster-dcm5000.md) - [Efficient Modern Coffee Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/singlecup-coffee-maker.md) - [Compact Coffee Brewers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kmini-mate-brewer.md) - [Brew-Boosting Coffee Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/single-serving-coffee-maker.md) - [At-Home Coffee Pod Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/coffee-pod-maker.md) - [Luxe Low-Power Espresso Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automatic-espresso-machine-and-frother.md) - [Compact Capsule-Like Coffee Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-espresso-coffee-machine.md) - [Pod-Based Iced Coffee Makers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keurig-kiced-coffee-maker.md)
