Hello, and thanks for watching! If you found this video helpful, please hit the subscribe button. UA-cam is changing the rules soon, which will shut down small channels like mine, so I need to hit 1000+ subscribers to keep that from happening. Thanks again, Girlzice. 8-)
I just want to say thank you. This worked like a charm for my Keurig!!! You have officially saved the world from an untimely end, at my hand, because i am now able to get coffee without having to spend $5 for a strong cup. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I just spent the entire morning trying everything except the paper clip trick, I did it and within 5 minutes it works perfectly again! All kinds of tiny black particles came out...Thank you!
Amazing! We already bought a new Keurig. Before we put this old one out to the garbage, we stumbled on this video, and it works in a few minutes. Thank you for sharing !!!
This was the fix! I appreciated that you went through the other things you tried, because that meant I didn't have to watch so many other videos, I could just pause your video, try the technique and move along with you. I would just add, to run some of the vinegar solution through a few times after your paperclip trick - with our machine there were a lot of coffee grounds the vinegar continued to flush out! Thanks 😊
I almost didn't see this video. I had watched a different unhelpful video and walked away from the computer. This video started playing on it's own or after the other one ended. I came back and watched and so thankful that I did. CRISIS AVERTED! Thank you so much! I now have my hand dandy needle on the shelf near my Keurig if this ever happens again. Phew!!!! people like you make the world go round. Seriously. My roomate and I need our coffee.
Wow. It's Still ticking.... I was ready to trash my 2.0. Had already bought a smaller back-up model, cause gotta have my coffee. Tried your technique before dropping the bigger better model down the trash shute. Saw nothing happening. There was no removal of a blood clot; no clearing of a fecal impaction. (yea, i'm a doctor) But after the procedure, the "nearly left for dead Keurig" was working like a champ! I don't really know what happened or why. But, thank you. Very impressive paper clip therapy.
Bought a thrift store Keurig, it worked once. Now it works all the time, because of this. Love all your suggestions, and very glad you unplugged it before you kept going with the paper clip.
Thank you so much for this brilliant advice. I am going on 2 years with my first keurig and knew nothing of the de scaling process. When my de scaling light came on and my keurig just wouldn't work, I looked in the manual for the help needed, and went through the process but it just wouldn't push the vinegar through. It was trying, but struggling. I have been gently tinkering with it for 2 days and no hope. I came across your video and as soon as I got to the part where you put the safety pin in the top needle a light bulb went off. I went and got some thin wire I use to make jewelry (can be obtained at hobby lobby for pennies if anyone is curious) and I gently pushed it up into the 3 needle holes on the too assembly. It took a few brews with probing between each round, but by the time the fill light started blinking, my little keurig was brewing and pouring away like the day I bought it. Thank you so much for this simple but amazing advice. Saved my keurig and it saved me the expense of buying a new one. I will be doing a 3 month de scaling from now on! :)
I can't begin to tell you THANK YOU enough. I thought my motor was shot until I tried your fix. It's working like a charm again. I even ran enough water through it to get rid of the vinegar taste and now I'm sitting down with my cuppa as I'm typing this. THANK YOU AGAIN!!!
This worked for me! My Cuisinart single cup stopped working this morning and after much frustration, went to the internet for help. This is the first vid I watched and voila! Coffee! Thank you!!
THANK YOU! absolutely worked for me just now, thought I was going to have to buy a new Keurig, but nope. There are two hole (or at least two that I saw) and I cleaned both of them.
Awesome video! And shame on the commenter who said you could have been done this in 10 seconds... It was very helpful to see all the steps he tried, because I tried them too, and I was glad to know some else almost gave up but finally tried the solution that worked. It's a testament to sticktoitiveness :) This worked perfectly, but I needed to clear out both the top needle duct (as shown in your video) AND the bottom needle duct. More and more, KCup coffee vendors are using cheaper KCup plastic coffee and tea containers. Recently we purchase a generic brand from our local super market, and even before the clog, we noticed lots of coffee grounds in and around the KCup chamber (even a little in our coffee!). I tried almost all the techniques the submitter did, but in the end, using a paperclip to clear grounds from both needle ducts fixed the problem entirely :) By the way, we use a commercial B150 unit - was easy to hook up a line under our sink - and we hate filling up the reservoir manually.
THANK YOU! We had tried every step you took, but not the final paper clip in the hole trick! IT WORKED! We can use our machine again. You are so genius!!!
haha! this just worked for me, too. Thank you so much. After poking into the thing that pictures the pods, it started streaming water again. The water had a bunch of coffee granules that must have back flowed into the machine. Thanks for the tip!
I skipped all the other steps and went right for the paper clip treatment and it worked! My Keurig is as good as it was when it was new. Thanks for posting.
I had the same issues. I have not needed to use the paperclip since I started doing this: Insert the K-cup, with your thumbs push down the k-cup to puncture the bottom first, then close the top to puncture the top second. This releases the pressure in the k-cup out the bottom instead of the top, which was forcing coffee grounds up into the upper water injector tube and clogging it.
I tried everything, and this is exactly what fixed my Keurig. Took a couple pokes with the paperclip and wiggling it around up in that top needle before it worked, but when the water came out, there was a little "pop" noise and it started flowing. Thanks a ton for this vid! Saved me $130 on a new machine.
THANKS A MILLION! Spent all day trying to get it to work but until I stumbled on your video here, no results. I unclogged every other port I could find, then you demonstrated the paperclip into the needle and whaaa laaa! Instant results! Took me all of 30 seconds! You saved me $150 bucks!! (and lots of headaches and aggravation). Genius!
Thank you soooooooooooo much for your video. I got mine from a thrift store. $15 find. First made crazy noise now works like a charm!!!!!! :D I wonder if that's why they got rid of it. Thank you again.
It worked! I tried cleaning, brushing, and compressed air and was about to buy another coffee maker when I saw this clip. Thank you for posting your paper clip solution. My coffee is working like a new one would.
It worked!!!!! Mine was headed to the curb, tried everything, the paper clip trick at the end did the trick! I am amazed!!!! Thanks for your tutorial!!!
Thanks, my wife had her's one day before it stopped working. After sticking a paper clip up wazzoo, it brewed a full 10oz, like it was supposed too. Funny, what ever happened to just a regular brewer? I am glad it is fixed though, what a 2.0 hunk of junk for $100. Newer is not always better.
I just took one back because it stopped working after a day as well. Called Keurig, and they said to take it back to the store. Got a new one, and now that one doesn't work. I"ll try this when I get home.
Yup that was it. Watched a few videos before yours but this was the fix! Thanks for the wisdom. I loved how you walked through all the stuff I had watched before in a calm and equally frustrated manner just to share this tip. Blessings from a happy wife and a happy husband who had no idea how to fix something again!
I work for PNC Bank and we have commercial grade keurigs in all out branches and this video saved me time and MONEY from calling to have it serviced. Thank you!!!!
I am the LEAST handy person you would ever care to meet and I am reluctant to try my own repairs, but I also balked at the idea of spending all that money on a new machine. So, nothing to lose, I tried your paper clip trick, and it worked! Thank you so much! And people out there, trust me, if I can do it, anyone can do it!
The problem is, these machines have a mind of there own and if they feel like toying with you they will… Usually when you’re running late or really need a cup to get going in the morning!!
thanks a bunch man i was so close to tossin out my kuerig.. then i found your vid.. and that needle was clogged! it works very well you deserve a million+ thumbs up! you just saved countless thousands coffee lovers from tossin out their keurig
OMG!!!! Hairpin...WORKED!!!! Thank you a zillion times!! Wish I had watched this morning though....I had to go to work without my coffee..couldnt stop thinking about it all the way to work..TOO mad to go to DD...and I was a crabby patty at work today! Had to leave early..EVERYTHING and EVERYBODY got on my nerves because I thought my Keurig was broken..lol. And because I didnt have my coffee... My kids and my staff thank you and SO DO I,SIR!
your video was awesome. I followed your instructions as to removing the water container and OMG. It was disgusting. There were sugar ants at the base of the container. I removed the container threw it in the sink, removed the filter as well as all removable parts washed and rinsed thoroughly and it now works like a charm. Thank you so so much.....
I was like, "uh, uh, this won't work. I've tried everything else and those tips didn't work." YOU GUYS, IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, stranger from 8 years ago!!
I tried everything and nothing worked. I was about to give up and send it back, when I decided to check UA-cam. After following your video, I must say it is WORKING! Thanks a lot.
agreed with Mike round n round, everything you said up front is an idea to try, even though we exhausted all those possibilities, it was nice to know great minds think alike in trying to solve the worlds greatest problems… getting coffee in the morning! LOL!
Just wanted to send you a big thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to make this video., We were very close to tossing the stupid thing. Now we can have coffee again.
Its a bit of a flaw in the design, you have a hollow piercing needle that water flows through and also punches a hole into the K-cup, when it goes into the K-cup it will pick up grains of coffee and will begin to over time plug the needle hole were the water flows out..Just by inserted a paper clip will unplug it....Our Keurig plugged up after just 3 months of use, we bought it new,,,
Before my morning cuppa, there was no way I was going to clean the dang Keurig, but mindlessly looking at videos on youtube was doable. I watched another video that declared it was the EASY way to fix it, but it had way too many steps for me pre-caffeine. Then I watched yours. I have a toothpick.... it was worth a try. A couple jabs, a few seconds to preheat, and voila, coffee. God bless you.
You sir are pure genius! I did everything except the paper clip trick. Keurig works better than ever now. I thank you and so do the other addicts in my house. You have helped to reestablish sanity in my household!
Vivian Lichter JESUS responds: Whilst thy words contain some truth, thou is lacking in full revelation that the other techniques which hast been departed in the video from other enlightened UA-camrs, heretofore worked for their particular situation. Go now, and troll no more.
Girlzice Thank you for this great video! Unlike Vivian, I believe that it was very helpful to see all of the different things you had tried so that we could see that the problem was, in fact, the same one we were experiencing, and that all of the same methods we had tried failed for you, too. The bottom line is that, something I tried because I watched your video WORKED! I do believe it was that final step of clearing the K-cup needle. Unfortunately, there will always be 'Vivians' out there criticizing people like you, even though your only motivation was to help others (and free of charge, no less).
Darn, almost 3-years after you did this video, it is still helping Keurig addicts like myself man! My unit crapped out this morning, though it had been brewing inconsistent cup sizes the past week or so, and I knew the inevitable was coming. Similar issue happened a couple of years back with my first model, and I tried everything I could find on UA-cam and eventually got this replacement from Keurig at a reduced price. Fearing the newer models which don't have good reviews, I really wanted to fix my machine but wasn't going to tear the thing apart like I had last time, order replacement parts, and so on. I did your quick paperclip trick and the darn thing started working again! Hallelujah!
Thank you for your video. My kuerig was acting up this morning and I thought I was going to have to buy a new one. Did the last thing you showed and voila it worked again! Thank you for saving me a new purchase!
if you knew what to do to fix it then why bother watching video. Being a woman I found this helpful more than any of the other youtube videos how to get it working.
Holy Shit, you are the Man. I have a Keurig the biggest one, 10+ cups of coffee a day for 3 years now. Love this thing until yesterday. Thought the pump was gone as well. Paper Clip trick WOW. You saved me and a bunch of people Money here. Have a great summer my friend
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I too had done all the exact step you showed in your video and could not get it to work. Was getting ready to buy another (third one now) and decided to try and find some help on UA-cam first. After I saw your video and tried all the same stuff you did and then tried the paper clip in the three holes (I only found two on mine) that punctures the coffee pod, IT WORKED PERFECTLY AGAIN! Thanks again for showing the ENTIRE steps you went through. Made me feel human! You just saved me another $200. You would think that Keurig would just put this information on their own website to help people fix their coffee pots because it is so simple. Thanks again!
Was ready to throw my 2.0 in the trash and start using my old drip coffee maker. Certainly couldn't afford a new Keurig. Tried the paper clip and it saved the day and the keurig. Thank you.
BLESS YOU ! I was miserable all day yesterday without my coffee having tried everything EXCEPT the paperclip. I just tried and it works beautifully. You saved my Monday.
OMG!!! I was just about to give up but decided to watch this video...Didn't think it would work but thought "what the heck I'll give it a try". I cannot believe it...IT WORKED! Thank you so much.
OMG YOU SAVED THE NIGHT!! WE NEEDED OUR BEDTIME COFFEE AND MY KEURIG WAS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING NOISES AND NO COFFEE!! I LOOKED UP VIDEOS NOTHING WORKED TILL I TRIED YOUR TRICK!!! AND IT WORKED!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING I WAS FIXIN TO CHUNK MINE TOO!
I've been working on my keurig for HOURS .... Finally decided to go back to UA-cam and found your video. Searched my house for a small tool. Found a Bobby pin and it worked !!!!! THANK YOU !!! I was so upset that it wasn't working and didn't want to spend more money on another one. Now I don't have to. Yay😄😄😄😄😄
Holly Molly ! It was only 6 month ago......... I didn't try your way of fixing my Keurig and I throw it away and get me a new Keurig. Talk about bad luck for me...... You did a good job for showing this video.
Thank you--I had my doubts but it worked! Enjoying my coffee as I write this! I appreciated seeing what didn't work for you, too, since I think I've tried about everything else.
I tried everything and was about to trash this Keurig! Finally saw your video!! and low and behold it friggin worked!! Thank you! thank you! thank you!! Great video!
Incredible! My Keurig was barely pumping out any water and basically went through those same steps you tried before coming up with the paper clip. WORKED LIKE A CHARM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
great video! I was awoken from a deep sleep by my girlfriend, frantic, that the Keurig doesn't work- luckily I found this video and the catastrophe was averted in 5 minutes!
The paperclip worked!!! I just ran a whole reservoir of water to clean it out & it was great. You shouldve seen the junk that came out in the water. Thanks a million!!
The Best of All! I have just been messing with my Keurig and his video is exactly how I feel. Except now I am laughing instead of just throwing my Keurig out.
Whew!I spent almost 3 hours trying to fix my keurig 2.0 watching multiple videos and was unsuccessful. Was ready to give up then I saw this video and lo and behold! It worked! Thank you so much!!! Can't survive without my keurig!
Your video is still helping people! You fixed my Keurig! One thing to make sure of is that you unplug ALL THREE holes in the nozzle. I had unplugged two and it wouldn't work at all. Don't know why all three have to be unplugged, but there you go. Thank you!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! I had been working on it all day!!!! This fixed it in seconds!!! :-) My hubby will be thrilled he can have coffee in the morning!!
As I sit here finally drinking my coffee, I want to thank you for your video. I watched a few before this one and tried a few different things and nothing worked till I poked at the top of the keurig like you showed and water started flowing. WHEW WHEW THANK YOU
I was going to throw my Keurig away until I saw your video. I have the same model and had the same exact problem....worked like a charm! thank you soooooo much!
I do have a different model Keurig than this, but 'lo and behold' this worked for me as well! Saw this here video after every other blessed thing I tried failed. THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!
TOTALLY WORKED!!!! Thank You so much! Purchased a Cuisinart Keurig machine at a thrift shop and the same thing occurred. Used the paper clip trick and amazingly it worked like a wonder! Will remember this in the future for sure. Very very helpful and easy.
I was about to throw the thing out! Thought I would try one more video, Thank God it was yours. Works like it should and saved us the money to replace it. Just can't thank you enough.
I just did this out of desperation..... and it worked!!!! I shoved the paperclip up all three holes on the needle, and this nasty black stuff started oozing out (yes, I'm aware I was drinking that!!) And now it works!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. My kids thank you too, because now mommy won't be one edge in the mornings!
thankyou! I tried everything and then took a paperclip, bent it open and stuck it up in that small hole where the water should come out and IT WORKED! I could hardly believe it because all I did was push the paperclip up an inch or so and saw nothing come out and I only stuck the paperclip up one time. I am still amazed. But I have coffee- thankyou!
Hooray! This also worked for our newsroom Keurig, which had started back-flowing the water. I made my boss happy, thanks to your video. (It did take several attempts to completely break up the blockage.) Thank you :-)
Well, your video saved the day. It worked! Thank heavens. My new 2.0 Keurig stopped working after only two days. I was ready to take it out into the back yard and empty a clip into it. But instead of a swap team showing up and all the other misery I instead have a freshly brewed cup of coffee... Thanks for your tip.

Awesome!
I was ready to pitch this in the garbage. It sat in the garage for a week and I decided to get online. Thank you, it worked!
Amazing! We already bought a new Keurig. Before we put this old one out to the garbage, we stumbled on this video, and it works in a few minutes. Thank you for sharing !!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I was ready to toss it and use it as a target!
This worked for me! My Cuisinart single cup stopped working this morning and after much frustration, went to the internet for help. This is the first vid I watched and voila! Coffee! Thank you!!
THANK YOU! absolutely worked for me just now, thought I was going to have to buy a new Keurig, but nope. There are two hole (or at least two that I saw) and I cleaned both of them.
+Kris Wilson Yes, three holes to clean on mine, Happy Brewing!
THANK YOU! The paperclip up in the top fixed my Keurig after all else had failed! You win the internet for the day and saved my sanity!
Awesome video!
And shame on the commenter who said you could have been done this in 10 seconds... It was very helpful to see all the steps he tried, because I tried them too, and I was glad to know some else almost gave up but finally tried the solution that worked. It's a testament to sticktoitiveness :)
This worked perfectly, but I needed to clear out both the top needle duct (as shown in your video) AND the bottom needle duct.

THANK YOU! We had tried every step you took, but not the final paper clip in the hole trick! IT WORKED! We can use our machine again. You are so genius!!!
This was my exact problem!! as soon as I put my pin through the little hole, it worked!! Thanks a bunch!!!
Same problem with my Keurig!
I watched several videos and this was the only one that helped! Our Keurig is working again. Thank you so much for posting this video!

Listen...I do not know you from Adam! BUT! Your fix did the trick! You are the ever lovin'! Bomb diggity! Heaven is missing an angel! LOL!

Steve Milford
Sounds like a plan. Interestingly enough I've never had to ream out my Bodum with anything. The french press just works.
And it worked.
Justin Bosky So does mine. Wishes I had read before I bought my Mini K10.
Yup that was it. Watched a few videos before yours but this was the fix! Thanks for the wisdom. I loved how you walked through all the stuff I had watched before in a calm and equally frustrated manner just to share this tip.

you have saved my Sunday morning. Thank you thank you thank you.
I tried everything and then I gave up. Saw your youtube and it worked. So simple but not anywhere in the official Keurig troubleshooting. Thanks
Thats I put a pin in like you said and it worked!!!! Thank You

Thanks for all the great comments! I'm glad to know this video has helped a bunch of people get their Keurig going again.
+Girlzice u r a life saver, tried it with the machine at work n it started working
your video was awesome. I followed your instructions as to removing the water container and OMG. It was disgusting. There were sugar ants at the base of the container. I removed the container threw it in the sink, removed the filter as well as all removable parts washed and rinsed thoroughly and it now works like a charm. Thank you so so much.....
Girlzice wow... a paper clip.... you sir saved me several hours of frustration. .. thank you so much for the vid... quick painless fix..

You helped me save my Keurig! Nothing else worked until I tried your solution. Thank you!!!
THANK YOU,!!!! It worked PERFECTLY. LOVE YOU, kisses and hugs....
I was like, "uh, uh, this won't work. I've tried everything else and those tips didn't work." YOU GUYS, IT WORKED!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you, stranger from 8 years ago!!
Haha, great to hear, you’re very welcome!!!
HIP HIP HOORAY---IT WORKED. THANK YOU.
I tried everything and nothing worked. I was about to give up and send it back, when I decided to check UA-cam. After following your video, I must say it is WORKING! Thanks a lot.
too much information up front, but the last minute was well worth it - thank you
It wasn't to much information for me up front. I only had to watch one video to get all the info I need on how to clean my Keurig.
agreed with Mike round n round, everything you said up front is an idea to try, even though we exhausted all those possibilities, it was nice to know great minds think alike in trying to solve the worlds greatest problems… getting coffee in the morning! LOL!
Just wanted to send you a big thank you! I appreciate you taking the time to make this video., We were very close to tossing the stupid thing. Now we can have coffee again.
Its a bit of a flaw in the design, you have a hollow piercing needle that water flows through and also punches a hole into the K-cup, when it goes into the K-cup it will pick up grains of coffee and will begin to over time plug the needle hole were the water flows out..Just by inserted a paper clip will unplug it....Our Keurig plugged up after just 3 months of use, we bought it new,,,
Before my morning cuppa, there was no way I was going to clean the dang Keurig, but mindlessly looking at videos on youtube was doable. I watched another video that declared it was the EASY way to fix it, but it had way too many steps for me pre-caffeine. Then I watched yours. I have a toothpick.... it was worth a try. A couple jabs, a few seconds to preheat, and voila, coffee. God bless you.
yeah, this handy hint is actually in the owner's manual under "Cleaning and Maintenance".
You sir are pure genius! I did everything except the paper clip trick. Keurig works better than ever now. I thank you and so do the other addicts in my house. You have helped to reestablish sanity in my household!
Jesus you could have said that in 10 seconds.
Vivian Lichter JESUS responds: Whilst thy words contain some truth, thou is lacking in full revelation that the other techniques which hast been departed in the video from other enlightened UA-camrs, heretofore worked for their particular situation. Go now, and troll no more.
Girlzice Thank you for this great video! Unlike Vivian, I believe that it was very helpful to see all of the different things you had tried so that we could see that the problem was, in fact, the same one we were experiencing, and that all of the same methods we had tried failed for you, too. The bottom line is that, something I tried because I watched your video WORKED! I do believe it was that final step of clearing the K-cup needle. Unfortunately, there will always be 'Vivians' out there criticizing people like you, even though your only motivation was to help others (and free of charge, no less).
***** Thanks for showing all the steps you performed. Mine worked with the vinegar trick, not the last one. Great video!
Yes, Mum :(

Darn, almost 3-years after you did this video, it is still helping Keurig addicts like myself man! My unit crapped out this morning, though it had been brewing inconsistent cup sizes the past week or so, and I knew the inevitable was coming. Similar issue happened a couple of years back with my first model, and I tried everything I could find on UA-cam and eventually got this replacement from Keurig at a reduced price. Fearing the newer models which don't have good reviews, I really wanted to fix my machine but wasn't going to tear the thing apart like I had last time, order replacement parts, and so on. I did your quick paperclip trick and the darn thing started working again! Hallelujah!
Thank you for your video. My kuerig was acting up this morning and I thought I was going to have to buy a new one. Did the last thing you showed and voila it worked again! Thank you for saving me a new purchase!
Just get to the point man! Good god!
if you knew what to do to fix it then why bother watching video. Being a woman I found this helpful more than any of the other youtube videos how to get it working.
woz Last I know irking
Holy Shit, you are the Man. I have a Keurig the biggest one, 10+ cups of coffee a day for 3 years now. Love this thing until yesterday. Thought the pump was gone as well. Paper Clip trick WOW. You saved me and a bunch of people Money here. Have a great summer my friend
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I too had done all the exact step you showed in your video and could not get it to work. Was getting ready to buy another (third one now) and decided to try and find some help on UA-cam first. After I saw your video and tried all the same stuff you did and then tried the paper clip in the three holes (I only found two on mine) that punctures the coffee pod, IT WORKED PERFECTLY AGAIN! Thanks again for showing the ENTIRE steps you went through. Made me feel human! You just saved me another $200. You would think that Keurig would just put this information on their own website to help people fix their coffee pots because it is so simple. Thanks again!
my wife was very glad this worked. thanks for taking the time to share
Was ready to throw my 2.0 in the trash and start using my old drip coffee maker. Certainly couldn't afford a new Keurig. Tried the paper clip and it saved the day and the keurig. Thank you.
BLESS YOU ! I was miserable all day yesterday without my coffee having tried everything EXCEPT the paperclip. I just tried and it works beautifully. You saved my Monday.
That was it! Thanks for posting and thanks for sharing! Videos like this are what make UA-cam such a great tool.
OMG!!! I was just about to give up but decided to watch this video...Didn't think it would work but thought "what the heck I'll give it a try". I cannot believe it...IT WORKED! Thank you so much.
OMG YOU SAVED THE NIGHT!! WE NEEDED OUR BEDTIME COFFEE AND MY KEURIG WAS DOING THE EXACT SAME THING NOISES AND NO COFFEE!! I LOOKED UP VIDEOS NOTHING WORKED TILL I TRIED YOUR TRICK!!! AND IT WORKED!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING I WAS FIXIN TO CHUNK MINE TOO!
Just fixed our 2 month old 2.0. You are an angel for sharing this!
I've been working on my keurig for HOURS .... Finally decided to go back to UA-cam and found your video. Searched my house for a small tool. Found a Bobby pin and it worked !!!!! THANK YOU !!! I was so upset that it wasn't working and didn't want to spend more money on another one. Now I don't have to. Yay😄😄😄😄😄
Thank you so much. Our work Keurig stopped pumping today, and your paper clip routine did the trick.
DUDE, worked like a charm! The De-Scale indicator was on, but the paper clip returned the Keurig to full flow immediately.
Holly Molly ! It was only 6 month ago......... I didn't try your way of fixing my Keurig and I throw it away and get me a new Keurig. Talk about bad luck for me......
You did a good job for showing this video.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video! I was ready to throw my Keurig in the trash!
Thank you--I had my doubts but it worked! Enjoying my coffee as I write this! I appreciated seeing what didn't work for you, too, since I think I've tried about everything else.
I tried everything and was about to trash this Keurig! Finally saw your video!! and low and behold it friggin worked!! Thank you! thank you! thank you!! Great video!
Absolutely worked, thanks ! The world will be a better place since I will get my coffee :)
Incredible! My Keurig was barely pumping out any water and basically went through those same steps you tried before coming up with the paper clip. WORKED LIKE A CHARM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
great video! I was awoken from a deep sleep by my girlfriend, frantic, that the Keurig doesn't work- luckily I found this video and the catastrophe was averted in 5 minutes!
The paperclip worked!!! I just ran a whole reservoir of water to clean it out & it was great. You shouldve seen the junk that came out in the water. Thanks a million!!
The Best of All! I have just been messing with my Keurig and his video is exactly how I feel. Except now I am laughing instead of just throwing my Keurig out.
Whew!I spent almost 3 hours trying to fix my keurig 2.0 watching multiple videos and was unsuccessful. Was ready to give up then I saw this video and lo and behold! It worked! Thank you so much!!! Can't survive without my keurig!
Ready to buy a new keurig. Tried your fix and now our Keurg works. Thanks for saving me money!
Your video is still helping people! You fixed my Keurig! One thing to make sure of is that you unplug ALL THREE holes in the nozzle. I had unplugged two and it wouldn't work at all. Don't know why all three have to be unplugged, but there you go. Thank you!
THANK YOU!!! I was so sad when mine stopped working this morning. I tried your trick and IT WORKED! Thank you for taking the time to share with us!
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!! I had been working on it all day!!!! This fixed it in seconds!!! :-) My hubby will be thrilled he can have coffee in the morning!!
As I sit here finally drinking my coffee, I want to thank you for your video. I watched a few before this one and tried a few different things and nothing worked till I poked at the top of the keurig like you showed and water started flowing. WHEW WHEW THANK YOU
Putting a paper clip up in the needle made my coffee brew so much faster! Thank you!
I was going to throw my Keurig away until I saw your video. I have the same model and had the same exact problem....worked like a charm! thank you soooooo much!
Thank you! Your video gave all possible solutions. I started with your last ideas and it worked! Happy now with my morning coffee!
U Rock!!! Tried All the Other Videos and this is the only one that worked for My Keurig thats only a few months old too!!
I do have a different model Keurig than this, but 'lo and behold' this worked for me as well! Saw this here video after every other blessed thing I tried failed. THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!
This is, by far, the best fix for this problem. Thank you!
TOTALLY WORKED!!!! Thank You so much! Purchased a Cuisinart Keurig machine at a thrift shop and the same thing occurred. Used the paper clip trick and amazingly it worked like a wonder! Will remember this in the future for sure. Very very helpful and easy.
I was about to throw the thing out! Thought I would try one more video, Thank God it was yours. Works like it should and saved us the money to replace it. Just can't thank you enough.
I just did this out of desperation..... and it worked!!!! I shoved the paperclip up all three holes on the needle, and this nasty black stuff started oozing out (yes, I'm aware I was drinking that!!) And now it works!! Thank you, thank you, thank you. My kids thank you too, because now mommy won't be one edge in the mornings!
thankyou! I tried everything and then took a paperclip, bent it open and stuck it up in that small hole where the water should come out and IT WORKED! I could hardly believe it because all I did was push the paperclip up an inch or so and saw nothing come out and I only stuck the paperclip up one time. I am still amazed. But I have coffee- thankyou!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. Wasn't working, tried what you did and I now have a working Keurig. Thought I had an expensive paperweight.
Hooray! This also worked for our newsroom Keurig, which had started back-flowing the water. I made my boss happy, thanks to your video. (It did take several attempts to completely break up the blockage.) Thank you :-)
Well, your video saved the day. It worked! Thank heavens. My new 2.0 Keurig stopped working after only two days. I was ready to take it out into the back yard and empty a clip into it. But instead of a swap team showing up and all the other misery I instead have a freshly brewed cup of coffee...
Thanks for your tip.
I was skeptical about this, but guess what? It worked! Thank you so much.
This is THE fix! I was super frustrated, and this was the immediate solution! Thank you so much, and God bless.
It worked! I can't fix a thing but your paper clip method worked for me. Thanks for blazing the trail!
Just had this problem this morning. Yours was the first video I watched and it worked perfectly! Thanks for making the video!
This fixed my problem after trying just as many steps as you did. Thank you so much for posting this!
