Not sure if it works. There's no confirmation after submitting.
Edit: Never mind that.  I got the confirmation.  Just a very slow-moving page

Being that there are non-kosher k-cups that exist, can one use a public keurig in a doctor's office?
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

If you press brew without a kup inside. Do you just get hot water?
If yes I would think that you can do that once before you make your kup and it would be koshered.

to be considered koshered it would need to be a lot hotter than that.

Quote from: http://www.keurig.com/customer-service/k-cups-and-beverages-support/frequently-asked-questions
Most K-Cup® packs are Kosher Certified Pareve. The only exceptions are hot cocoa K-Cup® packs, which are certified Kosher-Dairy. When a hot cocoa K-Cup® packs is brewed in a Keurig brewer, the brewer converts from Kosher Pareve to Kosher-Dairy and any subsequent K-Cups brewed in this brewer would be classified Kosher-Dairy. If you want your Keurig brewer to remain Kosher Pareve, you'll need a second Keurig brewer for brewing hot cocoa K-Cup® packs. Using a second K-Cup holder will not keep the brewer Kosher Pareve. Café Escapes® K-Cup® packs and revv™ Pulse K-Cup® packs and are not Kosher certified.

Why would you request that this thread to be taken down?  Is this forum for kosher-only products?

Basically.

(unless you intend to bring in pots of boiling water and heating stones AND can get clarification on Kashering plastic)

Some might assume that foodstuffs on the forums are kosher.
