I've descaled my Keurig, but I still see particles in the water. How can I remedy this? I have descaled with vinegar twice now, and I am beginning to feel annoyed.

We use a 75% vinegar and 25 % water. Then we rinse it twice with plain water. Also remove the little K/cup holder and clean it good and then replace in the machine. Works for us!

Keurig brewers are great little machines but from time to time they all need a little TLC. The brewers have countless components that must all work together to deliver the perfect cup. Most common problems with these machines are caused by calcium/lime buildup. If you've tried the manufacture's suggested vinegar descalation methods to no avail, give this a try. PRESSURIZED WATER FLUSH: - Unplug machine, remove water reservoir & set aside. - locate water inlet opening (this is the hole in which the reservoir drains) - using your garden hose, place nozzle flush with water inlet opening, direct water stream into this opening while slowly increasing water flow. - BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET ELECTRONICS OF THE MACHINE WET - water should begin pouring from beverage dispenser & overflow/reservoir pipe. - continue flushing machine for 30 seconds. You may notice chalky white particles in the water flowing from machine (this stuff is the cause of your problems). Your machine should be as good as new now! Repeat process is problems persist. You may also use compressed air to clean the machine and other commercial descalation products.

Just like any coffee or espresso maker, descaling is a process that needs to be done periodically. If your location has hard water, you may need to descale more often than elsewhere, but it's nothing to worry about. It's just a chemical process that occurs as the result of mineral deposits from the water collecting on the elements inside the coffee maker. I'm sure that coffee manufacturers will sell you tablets for descaling, but I've always just used undiluted white vinegar as the reactant. To do this, I recommend: 1. Empty all of the water from the reservoir. 2. Fill with undiluted white vinegar. 3. For this type of coffee maker, brew as many cups as it takes to empty the reservoir, being sure to dump each cup in the sink as it finishes. 4. Once you've run through all of the vinegar from the reservoir, refill with water and run a few cycles to rinse. (You may want to leave the water to soak for a while to give the residual vinegar further time to clean off the minerals.) 5. Fill again with water and rinse. 6. Once you've emptied the reservoir a second time with the water, your machine should be adequately descaled and ready to brew coffee again!

fill the reservoir with distilled white vinegar and leave the brewer on for 4 hours (leaving the auto off option OFF). after the 4 hours, run the entire vinegar filled reservoir through the machine.

refill with water and repeat twice. your machine is now cleaned and descaled.

your machine is "Short Cupping"

It needs to be descaled. Even though the descale light might not be on yet, the descale light only comes on when it is in SERIOUS need of a descaling. You should descale once every 3 months.

Fill reservoir with distilled white vinegar and leave the machine on for 4 hours (make sure to turn off the auto off option).

after 4 hours, run the vinegar through the machine until the reservoir is empty. Refill with water and repeat twice. you will notice a difference right when you start running vinegar through.
