Kcup side of my cuisinart is blowing the grounds out of the top of the kcup. Doesn't seem to matter what brand and we've cleaned it twice. Any suggestions?

The drain side is plugged. I use q-tip or toothpick to clear the passage. Sometimes grounds get stuck on their way out.

SOURCE: MY b60 all of a sudden won't fill a full cup when

When I descaled my b60 I also used a paper clip to clean out a possibe clog in the little bottom drainage tube. The help I received suggested I also use the paper clip to check the top tube which I didn't know about. I did this and now it works fine...thanks for your help.

SOURCE: why would water spew out while using My kcup in

The top gasket is not sealing on the endention of the my k cup. Open the handle look inside around the top needle and there will be a black gasket around it. Pull it down just a little so that it makes better contact with the My K Cup.

SOURCE: My kcup brewer leaks water

I had the same problem I bought a 1/2" rubber washer and duct taped it to the top of the reusable unit and it has been working great for about a month, the indent in the reusable filter is too far away from the brew section of the machine

Keurig 2.0 coffee grounds are everywhere

Ensure the kcups are being pierced by both the bottom and top needles. Be sure to check each kcup is thoroughly sealed before placing it in the brewer. Crushed or dented kcups may not brew properly.

Our cuisinart kcup coffee maker is leaking out the top of the machine. When it brews instead of a stream coming out of the pour spout, the machine leaks water all over the main brewing piece (where the k...

Take out the used kcup and GENTLY explore the holder fitting. There should be a sharp point in the bottom that punctures the bottom of the kcup to allow the brew to flow out the spigot and into your cup. There also needs to be a sharp point on the top to punch a vent hole for the water to enter. It they aren't both open, coffee and grounds will spray everywhere. Take it apart and clean thoroughly as well.

My K-cup leaks and sprays coffee. Produces weak coffee with 2 tablespoons. Disappointed with product.

I had the same issue and found a **** fix that is working well. The issue is that the hole in the my-kcup doesn't seal to the machine so I take a square of foil and put it over the top of the closed my-kcup assembly, crimping it under the rim of the cap. This seals the assembly and forces the water through the my-kcup. It also makes a better cup of coffee because the water is all going through the grounds. The other thing... do not over fill the my-kcup... that also produces spraying and leakage.

Our Platinum Keurig will not pump water. The motor makes 3 kind of grinding noises and then silence. I have cleaned out the jet with a pin, so it is not that

there are two needels. one enter the top of the KCup and the other the bottom.

1. Power off machine.

2. Using a metal paperclip, insert it into left side of top needle. It must insert at least 1" deep. Insert it into slot on right side and again from back of needle.

3. Remove KCup cradle. Separate bottom from top. In the top section, insert the paperclip up into bottom needle from the bottom upwards. It will not go all the way thru and this is normal.

4. Reassemble KCup cradle and reinsert it back into coffee maker.

5. Power on machine.

6. Brew a cup of water only. There may be coffee grounds in the water and these should eventually clear during the remaining steps. NOTE: A large cup brew cycle should output a full 8 ounces (235cc). Less means there is still a blockage
