    Thank you. My wife had our Keurig in the trash, but I wanted to give it one last chance. We had tried the paper clip cleaning the needle, and I got a new filter off Amazon and replaced that. Still no good flow, just a few drips of coffee and it took 15 minutes to fill a cup. Then I found your video, cleaned the needle and tube and drained it upside down over the sink, and now it works like new.

    I tried everything and realized the problem was my reusable k cup. The red line plug had come out so coffee grounds were getting everywhere. Well at least it forced me to do some machine maintenance! 😆

    I have a Keurig duo. I’m not sure how to get to the casing. I don’t see anyway to open it but I’m sure that must be the problem

    Can confirm the coffee grounds clog. I believe it happens at the very end of the cycle. When the pump stops pumping the column of water flows back to the reservoir. This pulls a little coffee every time. It seems to be more prevalent in the more expensive models. Also, vinegar won’t work on organic coffee grounds. Vinegar is for water scale which can also build up in these things.

    I think I made this almost 10 years ago and my iPhone wasn’t the best with focus but it’s cool people find the video helpful (almost forgot about it). Ofcourse with any appliance be sure to unplug before fixing.

    04.15.2024 I don't drink coffee, but a friend was gonna trash her machine cuz it wouldn't work. [Made noise, but nothing came out.] So I asked if I could have it to recycle as she bought another. But before I recycle it, I'm going to try your cleaning tips!! 👊

    Don't put the water back from the cup into the reservoir! Whatever was clogging might be in that cup!

    Help I didn't have a reg paper clip. It was a 📎 but it was covered in a plastic coating. I used it to clean the pierced thingy. It helped, but silly me tried a second time. I then realized some of the coating came off. Now it's clogged. I noticed you took your top casing off your keurig. I can't seem to do that with mine. TIA. HELP!!!

    Mike, thank you for your video. I myself have been using distilled water in my keurig 2.0 for years but recently I have noticed that I’m not getting the right amount of water in my cup. After several videos I came across your video and I have to say that your video was very helpful. I guess my coffee machine is no different than any other machine I purchased even the car. Everything needs servicing and maintenance. Thank you once again for the reminder, Thumbs up for your video 🫵👍👍😎

  • @kendoglarson5419
    @kendoglarson5419 Рік тому

    I found mine was due to excess water / air in the line which may have put the cycle into haywire or out of wack for lack of a technical term. After checking my filter and reservoir feed I simply removed my water tank and turned the unit sideways and angled it as far as I could to drain the reservoir feed port without turning it upside down. About a third of a cup trickled out. I set it back up to run a test cycle with about 2-3 inches of water in the tank and to my delight the machine functioned perfectly. I ran a few more cycles with different size cups and concluded that I had resolved my situation. So, maybe try that if your machine is spotless and clean and you can definitely hear your water pump functioning. Good Luck 🤞🤞🤞

    This fix didn’t work for me. Ilnormally when you turn it on the motor starts to pump. In this case, nothing happens at all. The main light goes on for a few seconds and then shuts off.

    Use a small paper clip to declog the grounds out of the needle. Also take out the cup after brewing.

  • @apauln

    I usually run vinegar through the machine when it starts to run slowly. But recently it runs strong for a couple of seconds then plugs up. So something is in there that is free flowing. Opened it up and it is clean of anything. I am soaking it with straight vinegar this time one more time to see if it will dissolve by itself. If not, I have to dig a little deeper to the inlet of the pump.

    A useful tip, if it’s built up with too much scale and will not pump at all. Add one cup of CLR, and one cup of water to the tank, attempt to start the machine. It probably won’t run the first time. Allow it to stand for 12 hours with this mixture in it. Then try it again. If it starts to pump, hot water, add more water to your tank and cycle the entire tank through one step at a time with no pod in the machine. If it doesn’t flow, let it stand for another 12 to 24 hours and try it again. Once this obstruction has cleared, you’ll need to run three tanks of clean water through the machine to rinse out all of the remaining CLR. You can use your nose to determine when the stuff is gone. It has a very distinctive smell.

    I have watched a few videos and I will attempt to unclog my Keurig machine. As I watched some of the recorded videos, I thought that wearing a head lamp flashlight on my head would give much better lighting in order to see that needle above. I am not selling these, however, they are handy for any project where you need to see.

    I have a model with buttons on top of the casing where the water/coffee comes through. I can’t seem to do the same thing when I take the buttons off.
