How to Descale with Keurig Descaling Solution.
I show you step by step how to clean the K-cup side and how to clean the coffee maker side. I show you how to clean the water reservoir. I show you how long it will take you to clean your coffee maker.
The Keurig descaling solutions are not right and you have to follow these steps.

I used the keurig rinse pod, which was so simple for the cup side. Run through once, then a second time. Done.
As for the pot, I’ve not had to descale it yet. But if you dilute the solution keurig has too much, it won’t be as effective. I suggest using the pod for the cup side & the solution for the pot side. Just my observation.
Thanks man! Just descaled! Haven’t used it yet, but we will try it tomorrow morning!! Thanks!
Hope you like it!
@@JustADad we have had coffee for 2 days in a row again!
Good video. Only gripe is it’s written to run a total of 4 rinse brews per side before you’re ready for coffee. So 4 total with the carafe and 4 total for the kcup side
Good point!
After having a single Kcup maker for years we craved a pot being made on the weekends. Researched a bunch of models and choose this one. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxL8yFdHfPF4ObeIwJ5JdM3i_9XLnbjUC2 We love it! We wanted a water reservoir for the single cup so we didn’t have to pour water in every cup but the other models it fed the water to the coffee pot to so by the time we made one pot we’d have no water left. This model has the traditional pour in feature for the pot and the reservoir for the cup which works great for us. Love how there is a bunch of holes pouring the water over the coffee, makes it taste much better. Only drawback I have is the way the lid is angled on the pot section it’s hard to get the last bit of water out of the pot into the machine without it spilling somewhere else.
Thanks for this video, the wife was ready to throw it away and buy a new one.😅
No problem 👍
This was honestly hella helpful thank u 🙏🏼
Glad it helped!
This was a great help, thank you!
You're welcome!
Ok…using white vinegar/water.. it ran a 12oz cup..then only runs about an 1/8th cup and shuts off..🤦🏼♀️. I cleaned the basket out,taking it apart..cleaned around the needle,using the recommended paper clip.. also the pot side only did about a 1/4 c….. must be clogged somewhere else… coffee pot side was working previously….what do I need to do?
Did you ever get an answer or did you just buy another coffee pot?
My descale light was on and the cups wouldn’t fill up to 12 cups , it would only do about one cup 😢 so I turned the machine upside down and banged it and it fixed 🫠 the descale mesureing floating was stuck I’m assuming because after a few bangs it works perfectly fine now 😊
Shit that happened to me! Guess I'll try your method of giving it a bang!
I descaled yesterday and have to again today will try that thank you so much
This was so very helpful
Ty for this, much appreciated.
You bet!
Thank you so much I have the same keurig. I really appreciate your video it helped a lot.
You are so welcome!
Was wondering if you could use a coffee filter and pour the k-cup water back into the reservoir and reuse the solution?
Great review as usual, thanks
Thanks for watching!
Thank you for this very helpful
You're very welcome!
I followed the directions and started out good. The kpod cleaned out ok. I started the carafe and clicked for 12 cups (mine did not say to Add Water), it started up but then I just hear a noise, like sucking air and nothing is happening. My green carafe light is lit and my 12 cup is lid too but nothing is happening...I turned off and restarted. I filled the reservoir to full and clicked again the carafe and 12 cup. It makes noise but nothing happening. I turned it off and will wait 30 minutes to see if it dislodges or something. Any ideas what to do next?
Did you get it to work?
mines doing the same
What are the dissolving little tablets they come with?
During the descaling, the carafe doesn't work. Any suggestions?
Add more water. I had the same problem and added a little more water and it worked
I just bought this exact coffee maker last week it’s been running good until now the add water/descale light is in constantly not blinking or anything and it will only heat the water and won’t make any pods or the pot
How can I descale if it will not cycle water through?
This could be a known issue Keurig has with the lower needle basket. I would call Keurig customer care at 866-901-2739. They have great customer service.
Yeah you can not unless the water is runnning
Can you actually take the water lines off? We have hard water at my house and the vinegar isn’t working
Thank you!
Your so welcome!!!
I have the same Keurig duo, but find that the machine is not pulling in water; I've saled it only twice, but this time Its plugged up, and I'm using a decaling solution. So with tha in mind, shouldI guy another K-Cup? (we were planning on buying one some months ago)
mines doing the same and was slow af dripping every 6 seconds. now i put vinigar in it and it wont pour or pump at all. did u fix it.
Thank you
Im still searching for a video that ahows me how to do this for my k-duo, which gor some reason looks nothing like what im seeing in the searches
Doing this made my K Duo not turn back on after descaling. Apparently, there's a more specific way to do the descaling you're supposed to press buttons or something before so now mine isn't working anymore and I tried everything to reset it..
My carafe only brewed 9 cups instead of 12 cups. Any idea?
Omg life saver❤❤❤
Glad it helped
Hi my name is AL I'm in Kenai Alaska Can you help me please. 🙏 I have one of those coffee makers model number K-DUO ESSENTIALS 5000 identical to that one. I made a pot of coffee my sister's kid made a pod this morning it was brewing my coffee pot really slowly it needed to be cleaned so I was cleaning it with white vinegar and I had to keep opening up the door where you put the coffee in and shutting it to get it to brew it only made 5 cups of coffee and stopped and now all the lights are on and they will not go off if I unplug it and plug it back in the lights are still on and it will not brew a pot or a pod none of the buttons will work the pot and pod button are green and 12 10 8 cups are blue how do I fix that 😢
Could u please tell me if I can use the 3 month brewer care kit with the Duo???
Yes you can, It has the descaling solution, that they sell by itself. It also has some rinse pods which will help clean your bottom needle basket. It also has water filters. Make sure you have a water filter holder in you water tank, otherwise you will be paying too much for something you will not use. check out my video on the 3 month care kit. th-cam.com/video/dGDABdobtNI/w-d-xo.html
They make a 3month kit just for the K Duo that I did a video on also. th-cam.com/video/g_OXJMNplqA/w-d-xo.html
I also did a comparison video between the 2 different 3 month care kits. th-cam.com/video/mm3GO_4zG2k/w-d-xo.html
Well done
Thanks!
My maker keeps stopping. The thing doesn't fill the pot I find myself having to keep restarting it.
Question I have a k-duo Keurig does it have a filter if so where is it
yes check out this video th-cam.com/video/qu--p6Uur_c/w-d-xo.html
First off, thank you for the video! The reason I watched is because I didn’t understand why there wasn’t enough solution to do both sides, and I’m wondering if both sides don’t use the same heating element? If not, your plan to add that much water was wrong. There’s no way your cofee maker side got enough solution, diluted as much as you did. My question is, is it better to minimize minimize the amount you put through the single side or would it be better to use two bottles of solution? Either way Keurig’s instructions are very poor! Don’t even get me started on how to remove the indicator that it’s time to descaler!!
Thanks for watching and you are correct. The directions are very poor and I could have done a better job explaining it. I did another video with using Vinegar which keurig says is ok on there website but it takes longer. I am not completely sure about the 2 tanks. I would use less coffee pot side it has the warmer to get it hotter if the inside heater does not work the best. The single side is the side you want really hot because it cools off so fast after you brew a single serve. This Keurig stuff is so expensive at $12.00 bucks a bottle. It has no odor and takes a lot less time than vinegar so 2 bottle would be 24 bucks. the vinegar was only 2 bucks at walmart. But you do have to keep up on the decalling for these machines to keep working. Thanks for the input and Advice. Thanks again for watching!!!!
my other video with vinegar. th-cam.com/video/qZZ9Y9FnTN4/w-d-xo.html
My descale light stays on and water/solution doesn’t come out of the single cup side.
@@alicat8469 Wow that is not good. Sounds like there is a tube that has become clogged or pinched on the single cup side. It might take a couple cleannings with pure vinegar to get the descale light to go out. Sorry I was not much help, I think I am going to buy a used one of these and take it apart.
Hmmmm I just did it with mine and and there was enough for both sides without extra water. I wonder if that didn’t dilute the solution too much.
I have the same one you have and it wont make a whole pot..... It wil only make 2 cups and stop. I dumped the pot and did it agian and it did the ame thing. Help
How about models which doesn’t show when need do this?
Alright so my duo plus starts pumping out smoke whenever I connect it because we were using it without the filter for a couple months. Im assuming something clogged up inside because of that. Is the descaler supposed to fix that? I want to try it but im afraid it will blow up or something because smoke starts coming out from the inside a couple seconds after I plug it in.
A little update. I plugged it back in, this time without the water container. No smoke this time. I turned on the coffee cup side and put the 12oz cup in its place. I heard the startup sound and waited a good while but nothing was coming out of it. A bit later, I check the water container that I filled by pouring the bottle, and the water level went down somehow. I have no idea where that water went but none of it fell in my cup. The water is currently at about the same length as when you poured the bottle only once in this video
Any update? My coffee maker did the same thing, I’m doing the descaling process as of right now, just wondering if you were able to fix :)
@cielitoalvarez337 Nah that shit exploded 💔💀
@@Miunim omg sorry to hear that! I was able to fix mine! 😆 but weird because mine did the exact same things but I didn’t plug mine back in for a week to let everything dry just in case
@cielitoalvarez337 Like literally the same exact thing I had? Well that ships sailed then. I've finally just bought a new one so hopefully it doesn't happen again
if the heating plate if already auto-off, can it be turn-on again without brewing again?
thanks
No once the heating plate shuts off it can not be turned on again without doing another brew cycle. Thanks for Watching and that would be nice if there was a seperate switch for that.
Yes the heating plate can be turned back on! Just hold the cups button down until it turns red again! It's good to go for another two hours! 😊😊😊
What about a filter?
Can u tell me how to turn the discale light off
i think it's the 10 cup and 8 cup buttons together for 5 seconds, there's videos on it. google "k duo reset buttons"
,where is the filter and how to change it
This does not come with a water filter. I have a video on how to install a filter. th-cam.com/video/qu--p6Uur_c/w-d-xo.html
You can purchase it off amazon at this link amzn.to/33v6LRD
Anyone know why duo is not heating water? And mine is only not making a full pot or keeping it hot 😣
Is it very old, it could be built up with hard water on the inside of the heating element. I read a lot online that these Keurig K-Duo's you really have to keep up on the Descale like once a month to keep the machine in top notch order. Sorry I could not be more help. Thanks For Watching!!
Thank you!! God bless!!
My blue light stays on with the tank full
I’ve descaled but the descale indicator is stil on. How do I reset it?
You might have to run it again with more solution. How long has it been since you descaled it?
@@JustADad Thanks. I ran it a couple of weeks ago and then again today.
@@briandonald is the light out now.
@@JustADad Nope. I believe I have an issue with the water in my house because I had the same problem with two Cuisinart coffee makers. I’m going to start using distilled water.
@@briandonald Be carful with Distilled water. most coffee makers do not recommend distilled. Water needs some minerals in it for the coffee maker to work correctly. Filtered water and Bottled water are ok.
This is a garbage unit. I had mine for a year and 10 months before it broke. That ment it was out of warranty. So an $80 unit lasts less than 2 years. Not very cost effective!
Unfortunately the top needle is made of plastic and breaks easily. Most of Keurigs problems occur in the top of the unit. Grounds get sucked up into the needle and brewing system. Descaling them doesn't work well kuz their clogged up inside. You have to disassemble them and brew water straight through the tubes to unclog them.
Keurigs are a bad design and the waste they produce with those little cups is incredible. We really need to stop using them!
I agree. My K-Duo was a gift, but I would not purchase one myself. The descale light came on after about 3 weeks of using it.
@leedavis9254 imma toss the POS out the window.....thus descaling thing is pretty damn frustrating bcuz it's so non-intuitive....having had issue like this with other makers ffs
theyve made the unit so you cant take ot apart to unclog it. they probably know this..
yeah I took one apart and it destroyed it.
That doesn't make sense! That one bottle of solution cleans both sides???
It looks to me like all that solution went to the pod side and then water in the coffee pot???? When you add more water to clean the coffee side then you only have water! I think I'll just buy a gallon of white vinegar since this machine has had roughly 10 pots of coffee made bcs it doesn't make a whole pot even though the reservoir shows its got enough water! Kind of a rip off when we paid $75 for a stupid coffee pot!
Just dont forget to rinse the machine out otherwise the coffee will taste bad..ooops
Thank you!
Your welcome!!!
