If you just bought a Keurig for the coffee lover in your life, I’ve got some bad news: The company has just issued a recall for seven million of their Mini Plus coffee makers due to burn reports. As NBC 10 reports, the “Keurig Mini Plus Brewing Systems, with model number K10, can overheat and spray water during brewing. Keurig says it has received about 200 reports of hot liquid escaping from the brewer, including 90 reports of burn related injuries.” Yikes.

The recalled coffee makers were sold online and in stores in the U.S. and Canada between 2009 and 2014, and they all have an identification number starting with 31, which you’ll find on the bottom. If you find that you have a recalled brewer, give Keurig Green Mountain Inc. a ring (1-844-255-7886), and they’ll repair it at no cost.
