The new consumer is absolutely ready for production use. I think this is leftover warning from older releases and should be updated to better reflect the current reality. 0.10.1 is currenlty in RC status (see https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Release+Plan+0.10.1) so that could be why the 0.10.1 docs are hard to find.
