Cleaning a coffee maker is simple.
Fill the carafe with 9-10 cups of Water and 1 cup drain cleaner.
Put a paper filter in the basket. Run the cycle. You will see lots of garbage in the carafe. Repeat with the same water.
Next dump the water into the sink and refill the carafe with fresh water.
Run again, several times to flush out the acid. remove the basket and scrub it clean. Your coffee maker should run like new.
Are you using the my k-cup with the Keurig pre-filled K-cups? If so it won't work. There must be a needle on the top and bottom of the K-cup for this machine to work. The My personal K-cup does not have a needle in the bottom. It's only to be used for filling with your own coffee.
Hello sunflower012, When I need accessory parts, I do a search on Amazon with model number, name and permanent filter, in your case, for Keurig . Hope this is helpful to you! Positive feedback is appreciated. Kind regards, NormanZ
It sounds like you were using the gold permanent coffee filter in addition to a paper filter. You should use one or the other.
The gold permanent filter must be cleaned between each brewing cycle.
Try this:
1. Remove the filter basket from the coffee machine.
2. Remove the gold permanent coffee filter from the basket.
3. Clean the basket thoroughly. Ensure there are no grounds clogging any holes.
4. Insert a new paper filter only into the basket. Do not use the gold permanent filter for this test.
5. Fill the water reservoir with the desired amount of water.
6. Add the desired amout of coffee grounds into the paper coffee filter.
7. Replace the filter basket into its holder in the coffee machine, and close the water reservoir lid. Press firmly on top where it says, "Press to Close".
8. Ensure the glass carafe is placed correctly in its position on the heating plate.
9. Turn the Function Knob to "BREW", then flip the Power Swich to "ON"
