Cool updates to your coffee maker software that you want

The KitchenAid coffee maker upgrade is here!

Like many of you, I have been awaiting the release of the new operating system for the popular KitchenAid 12-Cup Coffeemakers. It was promised in the second quarter of 2018, and select consumers are waking up to new cafe features on their counter.

After you upgrade the operating system to KA2.3 you will wonder how you lived without these new features!



Highlights of the ALL NEW KA2.3 Features

VR Brew
Most exciting is the virtual reality brew setting. Indicates the brewed coffee is steaming hot, ready to serve, even if you don’t touch the stuff IRL.  A popular request and has been offered on K-Cups since early 2017.

Programmable tones
No more harsh beeping, load your favorite tones to alert you on, off and ready status—or you can turn off all sounds.

ReBru
How many times have you made a pot of coffee while you are half-asleep and the coffee is too weak, too strong or worse full of grinds. Press ReBru and the machine express brews your first pot of the day using learned characteristics so you don't have to think.

Add Milk and Sugar selector
Lets you make coffee to suit your preferences.  A feature you're going to love.

Prepare for upgrade
  • Thoroughly clean basket of grinds and rinse carafe. 
  • Set coffee maker into command mode:
    •  Press and hold the Brew and Clock buttons for 90 seconds until coffee maker beeps 4 times. 
  • Follow prompts.  

This update takes approximately 20 minutes and requires your coffee pot to be running on an electric power supply.
