Success with your clear demonstration. I used the Keurig kit to descale as you describe. It worked, but, in my case, it took the fourth reservoir before the descaling light went off.
Good to know...I've been running descaling on my own (vinegar, sometimes citric acid-I use that in the dishwasher instead of liquid descaling like Finish) but have never gotten the light to go off. I'm doing it right now, second tank on fresh water and the light is still flashing. I'm glad you posted stevetice!
@@FIXITHomeImprovementChannel I still had to run clear water up to four tanks, with no change to the flashing De Scale light. What FINALLY got it to stop, and not mentioned in video or comments is to run the tank of fresh water OUT. I had been refreshing the water so as NOT to let it run dry, but as soon as it happened, that darn light FINALLY went out. I have the K Slim, Plus? The same as in your video...
I use a tablet of denture cleaner. Drop a tablet onto the water reservoir, let it totally dissolve and run the descaling mode. When it’s done run a couple rinse cycles until the light goes off. Done! If you get a ADD WATER because the inlet gets clogged, The easy way is get a paper towel and a straw, wet the paper towel creating a seal and place the straw into the water inlet, blow gently into and hold the paper towel and straw to form a seal and continue to blow a couple times until you hear the air flow through the outlet. DONE!
Hi, the descale light just lets you know when you should descale. Using the solution when brewing will clean the unit. Check out some home improvement tips in our e-books www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B2KW1FQ9

@@JJ-gc8du I'm glad you mentioned this. I couldn't get the descaling light to stop either.
It also took the fourth reservoir of water to clear the descaling light; so be patient.

I did the same thing last night.
So does this mean we have to do it again? Or is it fine
I did this whole process now my keurig won’t turn on. Any suggestions?
The cleaning solution now comes in a small pouch. Your instructions were very helpful but no matter what I do the descale light stays on.

My Keurig doesn't go out of descale mode, It never gets to the add water point?, I burnt out a few of these because the water dried up??

Ok guess I missed the wait 30 minutes part and already ran through clean water alot of water..descale light still on
my keurig kit didn't come with a mug
Its not advisable to follow the descaling instructions on the bottle. Follow the instructions on the quick start guide .
Waters running through a lot better though
What a pain
