My 6 month old keurig b70 has descale in display; (I've lost my manual) attempted to use vinegar and water solution to descale as per descaling instructions from internet, however, machine will not even pump water from reservoir to attempt brew. At my wits end. Please help.

    You can also try a electric/battery toothbrush to clean the filter below the reservior when you remove it.

    Go to Bath Bed & Beyond buy Clean Cup for $7.99 use like you would a K-cup. Use twice. Then take out the Clean Cup pod, throw it away. Run clean water twice you Keurig should work.

Slow coffee stream and smaller brew size with B70

I had the same problem, contacted Keurig and they suggested the descale procedure, which did nothing. The brew size was very small, the display would not let me select the size, and water was being pushed back into the reservoir. I was able to resolve the problem however.
First I went through a gallon of white vinegar, without results. Then I did the following:
Went to Walmart and bought "Brew Rite". Tried 8 cup mixture (8 cups of water, two tablespoons of mix), did not work. Being persistant, put in another 8 cups, and when the reservoir was empty of the solution let sit 2 hours while unplugged and then put in clear water. By the time I got half way through with the clear water, the device started working properly, no problems since. This may work for you...
