[Electronics-Talk] Question about coffee makers which support KCup pods

So, right now, I'm using a Keurig brewer which is extremely user 
friendly for the blind.

I won't however bore you all with the specifics, but the very long story 
short is, we recently moved, and the house we're now living in which was 
built by Lennar, comes with all sorts of smart home accessories. For 
example, we're getting an Echo Dot at no cost to us, which is great! as 
my whole family already has tremendously adopted the Amazon ecosystem, 
and are head over heals in love with our echo devices, etc. We also get 
things like a Ring Doorbell, a Letron Caseta light dimmer, etc.

Anyway, we're also getting a Samsung Smart Things hub to control all of 
our smart devices. I'm therefore seriously looking at upgrading all my 
equipment to things which are smart enabled. So, my question is, whether 
it be with an app on my iPhone, or even better yet, something I could 
control with my echo devices, is there any brewer out there which 
supports KCups like a standard Keurig would do, which would be smart 
enabled, and be accessible.

I don't mind having a sighted person the first initial time help me get 
the device pared if needed, although it would be helpful if I could do 
it all myself. The biggest thing would be, once set up, and once 
connected, I could independently configure and use the device as a smart 
device.

Any suggestions?

Chris.
