"Keurig coffee machines give you different settings for cup sizes, ranging from 4 or 6 ounces up to 12 ounces (that's a “tall” in Starbucks cup sizes). If you select a 12-ounce cup rather than, say, a 6-ounce cup, the machine pumps twice the amount of water through the K-Cup pod, but it doesn't magically make the coffee grounds more potent. In other words, the more water the machine uses for your cup, the weaker the resulting beverage is, with a noticeably muted flavor and a more watery mouthfeel."
"If you're looking for stronger coffee, changing the amount of water in your K-cup brew is easy, though the exact method can vary between models. For a Keurig K-Supreme, for example, simply turn on your unit, put your new pod inside, press the control panel button indicating your desired ounces, then hit the brew button. On other machines, such as the K-Select or K-Elite, brew sizes are indicated by cup images. The underlying idea is the same: those buttons exist to fine-tune your brew."
"Before you even push a button on your Keurig, make sure you've chosen the best coffee pods for your palate. If you like a robust flavor, seek out pods labeled “intense,” “extra-strong,” or “extra-bold.” Dark roast Keurig pods (which we've ranked) are also great contenders for their deeper, more caramelized tasting notes. Temperature also plays a key role in brewed coffee's flavor; preheating your machine and run"
Keurig machines offer cup-size settings that control how much water is pumped through a K-Cup pod. Choosing a larger size, such as 12 ounces instead of 6 ounces, sends more water through the same grounds, producing a weaker, more muted, and more watery beverage. To get stronger coffee, adjust the brew size using the machine’s ounce or cup-image buttons, then brew with the desired pod. Strength can also be refined by selecting pods labeled intense, extra-strong, or extra-bold, and by using dark roast pods for deeper, caramelized notes. Brew temperature matters as well, and preheating the machine helps improve flavor.
