## Transcript

A handful of Keurig owners ready to wake up to the company's one serving cup of joe woke up to a scalding hot sting instead. Now the coffee brewer is recalling some of its Mini Plus Brewing Systems due to a possible burn hazard. The US Consumer Products Safety Commission warns water can overheat during brewing, spray out and burn consumers. By the numbers, the recall affects more than seven million units sold in the US and Canada. So far, customers have filed 200 reports claiming hot liquid escapes the machine, and 90 have reported burn- related injuries. On its website, Keurig explained the recall was voluntary.

The coffeemaker also tried to pinpoint a possible cause, saying, Keurig has determined that this event is more likely to occur. If the brewer is used to brew more than two cups in quick succession ." In other words, addicts slurping down coffee in succession or someone trying to brew a family size pot out of single- serving cups could put you at risk. According to Fortune, the company's biggest money- maker is its single- serving instant coffee packs. It's brewing machines only brought in around $ 823 million last year. While the cups accounted for 3. 6 billion dollars in sales. Recalled machines sold between the end of 2009 and July of 2014 have a serial number beginning with 31.

The company's asking consumers to contact Keurig for a free repair.
