How Keurig Brewed a Return to Growth
Keurig Green Mountain (KGM) created a new category of consumer products, becoming a household name in at-home coffee brewing in North America. But by the early 2010s, the public company had lost momentum and suffered a series of product missteps, negative media scrutiny, and ongoing challenges to its partner relationships. In late 2015, the company was acquired by JAB Holding Company. The new CEO Bob Gamgort led efforts to turn the newly private company around by strengthening partnerships, upping productivity, and reducing costs. In 2017, the company was then able to focus on new growth. Gamgort had to decide the best strategy from four major options: take the company public again through an IPO; set out for greater global expansion; combine with another coffee business to become a larger player in North American coffee; or diversify beyond coffee through a 'pure play beverage' strategy. Harvard Business School's Senior Lecturer David Fubini and Research Associate Patrick Sanguineti join host Brian Kenny to discuss these options from their case, ' Keurig: A Return to Growth.'

A set of cleaning cups for your Keurig if you're starting to notice a ~funky~ taste in all your beverages after having your Keurig for a long time and never cleaning it. Don't worry, you're not alone, I didn't know you were supposed to be doing anything special to clean them either.

Stop breaking a sweat every time you find a new gross stain, and instead, break out this scrubber that will do all the heavy lifting.

Plus, it's made from food-safe, organic ingredients, so you can feel good about using it all throughout your house!

Go ahead, give your smooth leg a little rub, we won't judge. A retainer cleaner because if you're actually following your dentist's instructions of wearing your retainers every day, you'll know no matter how much you brush them, they get coated in some nasty film and turn yellow. These fizzing tablets will eliminate that from even the hard-to-reach areas, while also eliminating that funky smell they've developed. Some reviewers even use this to clean their water bottles! Bottle-cleaning tablets so your emotional support water bottle you've been using every day for the past year (…without washing…) can be restored back to its freshly-purchased state that is *actually* safe to drink out of. A bottle of Blume's meltdown acne oil that will help combat acne-prone skin while still keeping your face moisturized.

A jetted tub cleaner because idk if you've heard, but those jets can get never-use-a-shared-tub disgusting. But unfortunately, that gunk isn't only in hotel tubs; it can build up in your tub at home. Clean out those jets, and stop being afraid of using your tub to its full potential.

This stuff is made from just seven (!!) vegan and cruelty-free ingredients and works to make colored or all black tattoos pop. And yes, you can use it if you have sensitive skin. An affordable teeth-whitening pen much less annoying than those traditional strips that you have to leave on for what seems like forever. With this pen you can have brighter and whiter teeth with just 30 SECONDS of daily use. Yea, you should toss those strips and order these RN. An all-natural scour paste that will quickly become your right hand man when it comes to cleaning.

A suede and nubuck cleaning brush to diminish the look of the water stains you got when you forgot to check the weather before wearing your suede boots out. You don't even need any additional cleaners to bring them back to life. A bottle of makeup brush-cleaning shampoo because no, your brush isn't actually brown, it's white.

3 telltale signs your Keurig needs descaling
Keurig is responsible for making excellent compact single-serve coffee makers. But, even the best Keurig coffee makers still need to be looked after to ensure you can enjoy flavourful brews every single time. There's nothing worse than making my morning cup and feeling like something is a little... off. A quick clean is great, but it's really important to keep your Keurig well maintained with a regular descaling. I'm certainly guilty of avoiding this step because it can be a bit of a hassle. But, over time, you'll start to realize exactly why it should be an integral step in your coffee making process. There's the 3 telltale signs that tell you your Keurig needs descaling. I'll never ignore them again, and you shouldn't either. So, here's how to make sure you spot them before it's too late. Remove mineral buildup from your Keurig with this cleaning kit. Designed to be used every 3 months, it's suitable for all Keurig machines and also features a pair of water filters for removing impurities before they make it into your cup. Simply put, if you don't descale your Keurig you'll affect its performance and it's possible that you'll risk it not working at all. The point of descaling your Keurig is to remove calcium deposits, or scale, which builds up every time you use it. It's not toxic, which is why you might think it's okay to skip this process, but eventually, they'll affect how your coffee maker works and the coffee you produce. You'll need to check the specific instructions from your Keurig model to follow the descaling process it suggests, as they don't all follow the same rules. But the reasons behind descaling your machine will always remain the same. According to Keurig, you should descale your brewer "every 3 to 6 months, or, for select brewers, when the descale light comes on." For someone like me who uses it every day, I should be descaling every 3 months. Get instant access to breaking news, the hottest reviews, great deals and helpful tips. A very obvious sign that your Keurig needs descaling is when you start noticing the brewing process to your fresh cup of coffee is taking a little longer. You may also find that your machine starts sputtering and/or releasing water in different directions rather than producing a steady stream. The most obvious reason for this to happen is that your Keurig is suffering from the build-up of mineral deposits that are affecting the flow of your coffee. After you've descaled, you'll notice the brewing time speed up, and the output of coffee becomes a lot more even. Most, but not all, Keurig models will display a light or message alerting you to the fact your coffee maker needs a descale. And what's more obvious than a descale light. The Keurig K-Duo Hot & Iced and Keurig K-Slim will both signal a solid or flashing light when it's time to clean your machine, but you'll need to check your specific model. If you don't pay attention to the alert, you'll only be exacerbating the problem leading to slower brewing and it'll eventually affect the overall taste of your coffee. Of course, nobody wants that. If you don't have an alert displayed, just stick to a schedule of descaling every 3 to 6 months. Or, if your coffee starts to taste a little funny, and it all takes longer than you'd expect. If you let minerals build up in your coffee machine for too long, you may notice that your coffee tastes a little cooler than usual. This is because the limescale has started to damage the heating element, reducing its efficiency, and could also be blocking up the internal workings of your Keurig. While it's easy to ignore a problem you can't actually see, when it starts to give you lukewarm cups of Joe, you won't be able to ignore it any longer. As well as impacting the temperature of your coffee, it can also confuse your machine and have the opposite effect causing overheating and damaging your coffee maker. Basically, if your Keurig starts acting a bit strange with temperatures fluctuating and an inconsistency in your brews, the first port of call should be a descale. Call it the IT equivalent of turning it off and on again — a quick descale can be the solution to a lot of your coffee problems.
