Keurig Green Mountain Inc said on Tuesday it was recalling about 7.2 million its K10 Mini Plus Brewing Systems manufactured between 2009 and 2014 because they could overheat and spray hot liquids on users.

The company said the machines could malfunction especially if used to brew more than two cups in quick succession. The recall affects 6.6 million machines in the United States and 564,000 in Canada.

In a recall notice on the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission website, Keurig says it has received about 200 reports of hot liquid escaping from the brewer, resulting in 90 people getting “burn-related” injuries.
Recalled brewers have an identification number starting with “31” followed by a range of numbers printed on a white sticker on the bottom of the brewer.

They are single-serve, hot beverage brewers and were sold in 13 different colors with silver trim. Colors include black, red, white, cobalt blue, aqua blue, purple, platinum, emerald, yellow, orchid, bayberry, mauve and poinciana.

The recalled brewers measure about 11 inches tall, have a “Brew” button, three cup size brewing options (6 oz., 8 oz. and 10 oz.), and a removable drip tray.

The water tank is located on top of the unit towards the back. K10 is marked on the packaging. Recalled units were produced between December 2009 and July 2014 and can be identified by the serial number printed on a white sticker on the bottom of the brewer:
