Dear Keurig Engineers, you messed up on this reusable coffee filter design. Next time, please use the KISS method... “KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID”. Excess water spills over from the coffee stream, messy and coffee residue at the bottom of the cup. Everything else is nice about this new machine Supreme Plus. However, people are returning the unit due to said issues! Please issue a recall on reusable coffee filter, which came included with my Keurig.
That sounds frustrating, and our Consumer Care team would like to help. Please contact them at 1-800-361-5628 or by email at krg.bz/2YnqnG0 for assistance,
@@KeurigCanada thanks for the generic reply. Please take the time to read all the 1 star reviews posted here. Something is definitely wrong with the filter. www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product/keurig-my-k-cup-reusable-coffee-filter-for-classic-plus-series/14769524/review
@@KeurigCanada I've been trying to use install the reusable filter and this should not be so hard; it's crazy - I'd return if I had the box

@@KeurigCanada this video and your customer care team is worthless!!! 20 minutes on hold so she can find the instructions on how to install the stupid Kcup!
👍🏼 Thank you!
I've been fooling with this stupid thing all day, and I still couldn't figure it out!
Thank you soooooo much for this video. We were trying everything to get this lil bugger to fit. Now we can brew our favorite coffee...👍👍👍
Yea, how were there not instructions included!
@@sppspharmdude oh don't worry mine included instructions you didn't miss anything. You would have been just as confused. They were total crap
Won't fit an u have to take it out an refill every time ,so
Mine simply does not fit.
The one thing this video doesn’t describe is the red Gasket. Basically if you have a 5 needle brewer you are going to want to remove the red gasket entirely. If you have a 1 needle brewer you want to make sure that the gasket is installed and each of the 4 holes are plugged. They don’t tell you this because they wanted it to be “automatic” in that the product would come with the gasket plugged then if you had a 5 needle brewer the needles would push the plug open and allow water to pass through. Wish they were more transparent about it but the product is already crazy confusing due to the vast amount of different brewers keurig has made over the past 30 years.
Mines has the 5 needles. It punctured a hole at the bottom smh
Thank You!!!
THANK YOU
Thanks for this video to explain how to use the reusable filter. It’s step by step made this an easy project.
Thank you so much super helpful! Now we can enjoy my good coffee.
Thank you so much for this video! I was so frustrated trying to get it to work
I just spent 1.5 hours, including coffee being dumped all over, trying to figure out how to fit this damn thing in my machine...lol - when the instructions said remove pod, I ASSUMED they meant the previous coffee pod i had for my breakfast cup of Joe. lol Can't wait to try it now !
Great presentation, this helped me get it right, thank you!
Well duh. So easy after watching this. Thank you!!!
I wish it was evident in the instructions when you buy one of these damn things. There was none of this info in the instruction booklet for the coffee maker or for the filter.
The instructions came with the universal Kpod featured on the video. What's not to understand? I had instructions with my universal name Kpod. It was common sense to do Step 1 here 0:17 without needing to watch the video.
I bought one just like this. And just got the reusable filter for after using pods for a few days. I’m beyond excited to finally have one. It’s been my dream coffee maker for years. I’m in love with it. Coffee tastes so much better lol.
⁰
Yes. I’ve tried a dozen trying to reduce waste while making more. This one first that works hooray for us.
Much appreciated video. Thank you
Thank you for this...I couldn't get the gray basket to FIT until I realized that I needed to REMOVE the BOTTOM adapter (which also goes up one side) before it would fit.
Me too. I don’t see the purpose of the adapter base - it just added confusion.
@@MS-jr9wd yeah would have been helpful if Keurig has considered writing productive instructions.
Same. Instructions should have said remove the adapter and place it in the garbage
Wow!! Thank you!! I can finally enjoy fresh coffe. Thank you Sincerely!! I liked and subscribed. You're awesome!!!
Thank you works the way it should work now
Multi-stream brewers appear to need the red plug removed. Also the k-supreme apparently isn't really a "PLUS" model so does not need the adapter. Worst instructions ever.
There are no paper filters available for this k-cup either so back to the issue of much sediment in my coffee :/ I used some disposable paper tea bags in it and really made a big difference in flavor and no sediment. Just fussy to fill, so proper fitting filters would really be nice.
I love all the brewing options on the k-supreme. I am finally able to get a stronger cup of coffee from my Keurig!
I am also glad that I didn't opt for the model down. The programmable favorites is really handy. (which I actually thought I wouldn't need because it is just me)
I found one that works for it on Amazon
Thank you so much!
Very hydrating!
Thank you!!
Does the My K-Cup Universal filter fit in the K Express essentials single serve coffee maker?
Thank you I now and use my Hazelnut👍🎈
How do you remove the K-Cup Pod from the brewer? It looks like you pushed a release?
I have a Keurig Vue machine. The model is V1200. I can't seem to get it to work with the filter. Every time I inserted and close the lid it says that the machine is not ready. But if I take it out and close the lid with nothing in there the machine works just fine.
Thank you thank you thank you🥰
Mine leaks like a siv. Theres unfiltered clear water that is getting through somewhere....trying to see if theres a fix or if i should just return it
Please help!! I need to know WHY you need to fill to the max line and WHAT SIZE of coffee is recommended for that max line. If I want a teeny tiny coffee in the evening it seems wasteful to fill the pod to the top and the coffee would likely be too strong but is the pod large enough to make the largest size without it being weak?
I can't seem to find answers to these questions anywhere online so please respond to this, @KeurigCanada or anyone else reading this post. Thank you!
It was that clip (which is black in USA so it blends in) that was stopping me from having this work but I got it now
Will this work with the carafe for the 2.0 ?
If your Keurig brewer has a single needle, you would keep the red gasket on. Be sure to have it on correctly (there is a wider side and a narrow side, it will only stay put if it's on correctly) and make sure each plug is fully sealed in it's opening. This will keep coffee from going all over from those 4 additional holes. If you have a 5 prong Keurig (like the one in this video) you would just remove it and that's it. I have a Keurig Slim, so I have to keep the red gasket on. Hope this helps!
Still makes a mess after the red thing is removed
Thanks!
Hi Keurig Canda, I have a little complaint. I have a Keurig Supreme Plus Smart coffee maker and it appears that as soon as the printed scan code on the K-Cup lid wears off the laser in the coffee maker will not recognize the K-Cup. I have two, one new with all the printing still on, and one that's about a year and half old. I used the last one with my previously owned K Supreme Mini and all the print wore off but it still worked. But not in the Supreme Plus. It just asks if you want to make hot water. Is this a known problem because I now have a useless K-Cup and know that my new one will also become useless long before it wears out? I can't think up a workaround that wouldn't involve toxic substances.
The one i received is bigger that the space of the kpod
I am using as the instructions say and as this video says to do, but mine is dripping BOTH coffee and overflow hot water into my cup! Is this normal?! It's happening EVERY TIME. I have the model that as the coffee pot and the individual cups options . . . .
I have a K2.0-200 model. I used a cheap reusable pod for a few years until the mesh filters started leaking, so I bought the Keurig cup seen in this video (Kroger had it on clearance for a fraction of the original price). I used it exactly as seen here. After 3-4 months I began to have a problem with it. The lid would not stay locked on once it was in the machine so it would come off separately from the rest of the pod. I thought it was a defect so I ordered a new one. Same thing happened. I realized that over time and frequent use (2-3 times/day) the lid begins to get bent out of shape and no longer will align correctly on the cup to lock. It turns out it WAS a design flaw. It doesn’t fit properly in the machine. It appears to, and it makes the coffee ok, but it wears out way too fast. Has anyone else had this problem?
Ong same issue here
We have returned 2 of them to Costco after a few months when the cup would sink and half water half coffee would come out. Terrible design.
I have questions. It says it is for all the Keurig machines but I have the Slim. Is there something I need to know before buying this product? I really want to use my grounds as well as the k-cups.
bought my keurig and the reusable at the same time a month ago, the universal now leaks around the top.. is this normal after a month of use and how is this fixed ?
What’s the purpose of the red rubber seal under the lid for? Just curious ? Are you suppose to remove or just leave it on?
Keurig doesn’t know that’s why there’s no answer
The pod with the adapter doesn't fit in my K-mini Plus, only without it. I'll assume it's not a Plus series, which is weird because it has "Plus" in the name.
I am still getting coffee grinds in my coffee and I am only fill it up to the max line.
What about the red gasket that blocks the 4 holes? Why is this there? My testing with a My K Cup Supreme model, IF you have a 5 hole machine, like I do, remove it, because leaving it in produces a deluge of water around the outside of the pod. If you have a single hole machine leave it in.
is that why most of my water bypassed the filter basket?
I made a cup this morning & it’s all over the place. This machine is so frustrating. Making coffee shouldn’t be so difficult
After a year of use, we use it everyday 10 times daily, this is my opinion. 1. The "scale" light is a gimmick, we use a 5 stage RO/UV on our well for drinking water. My probe says 2ppm, there's no "scale" buildup for the time the light turns on. 2. I feel there is "dry" coffee at the bottom of the strainer that is wasted. So we are going to look a Ninja brand coffee maker to replace this. This Keurig just misses the mark.
Exactly!
I bought one for my k-mini,if I fill the cup to the max,how much water should I fill?
How to keep sediment from coffee showing up in coffee?
is this for fine ground coffee?
Removing the red piece does help from water spraying everywhere with the 5 needle makers but coffee still doesn’t taste like it should
This helped
@Rob Sasena "RED GASKET" has to be removed or else it will make a mess and not brew correctly. Thanks Rob
Coffe comes almost water😅
Thank you for this video it helped. I’ve had The K supreme Plus for year. I’ve taken care of it properly by descaling etc. Just used the reusable k cup. Stupid design! Lately my machine when it’s running spits all over the place and makes a mess! just water streaming sometimes coffee will stream. Not happy with this machine at all or the K cup reusable ! This was sent to the company . DO BETTER KEURIG!
Mine doesn't have a max line at all, just a ridge very close to the top, much closer than where the max line would be like in the video.
Thank you I was about to throw it in the trash before I seen your video
just got the supreme tried with and without red plugs in the adapter. with the plugs in water spilled over so i will be leaving it off for now.
Good call!
I have left the red plugs out on my k-supreme plus too
What is the difference between one of these, and one of the little mesh Keurig baskets that you can use and rewash
The difference is that the little mesh one is easier to clean, more convenient and less steps to get ready. This design is so bad, idk how they thought it was a good idea.
What is the adapter for?
Don't you have to remove the red rubber stopper inside the filter before brewing?
I had to take it of because if don’t take it coffe comes almost water😅
Hi, I just buy a Keurig K Mini Plus and a K-Cup. But the K-Cup fell inside and now is trapped. Help Me!
This doesn’t answer my question on wether or not I need the red thing on the lid.
Over time and despite cleaning after each use, coffee builds up on the bottom of the filter slowing the coffee pass-thru when it is brewing.
Do you need to take out the red rubber gasket when using with the Supreme or Supreme Plus?
We may never know :)
I am actually returning mine because as of now, with the red ring, our coffee is coming out weak. The red ring seems to not allow the water to come through and its overflowing the water to the top of the lid and down the sides. Its a mess. We only use refillables so this is kind of a deal breaker. I am going to go get the supreme plus in hopes that it was just a faulty unit and upgrading at the same time.
Just bought the supreme plus yesterday. It appears to push the red plugs out because it has 5 brew needles. Senses tells me to just leave this red gasket out when using on the 5 prong model. I’m guessing they made it this way to be compatible with single needle models too.
The instructions in the My K-Cup box clearly say that the red rubber gasket can be removed for cleaning and reinstalled for use. It doesn’t say anything about leaving it out for some models and in for others. Either the instructions are wrong or they’re just very confusing, it’s hard to tell. And I can’t test it both ways because my new Supreme Plus wouldn’t turn on out of the box. So now I’m waiting for Keurig to send me a replacement. We’ll see!
@@robstevenson675 I emailed them about the red plugs and they never got back to me. My supreme plus then died after 2 weeks of use. I just returned it to Costco and bought a drip machine online. Too many issues with the new Keurigs.
Hey Guys, I know the dude that designed this thing. Basically if you have a 5 needle brewer you are going to want to remove the red gasket entirely. If you have a 1 needle brewer you want to make sure that the gasket is installed and each of the 4 holes are plugged. They don’t tell you this because they wanted it to be “automatic” in that the product would come with the gasket plugged then if you had a 5 needle brewer the needles would push the plug open and allow water to pass through. Wish they were more transparent about it but the product is already crazy confusing for the due to the vast amount of different brewers keurig has made over the past 30 years.
I fill mine all the way to the top. My Keurig uses just one hole and I have never had any problems. So it's possible to add more coffee to the filter than the max line level.
Hey! How about you take it down a couple of notches, Mr. Eakle, Mr. I-can-get-more-coffee-into-my-pod!? That tone is totally out of line!! Who do you think you are???? You think you're so special that you can violate the Keurig max-fill rule?? Hanh? GET BACK IN LINE.
@@jimb8738 Thanks for the laugh. I needed it.
MINE WON'T FIT!!!!!! WHY? I'm doing everything the video says but it's not working. Why can't they make it to where you don't have to take anything out to put the filter in?
That's their business: to keep individuals frustrated at all levels of life; to keep everyone struggling with everything all the time! You see, it all adds up, at the end of the day🤔
I would love to learn the official answer to this as well,though it appears that the additional 4 "nozzles" push the red gasket "plugs" out of the way when you close the top of the brewer.
I just purchased one of these. The instructions that come with the cup remain deficient. They speak about "Plus" brewers as requiring the grey piece that must be removed for the newer unit and they say the red piece should be in place. I left the red piece in place and the operation stopped after a few seconds! With the grey piece and red piece removed, it works very well.
I doubt there is an "official" answer. I think the instructions were written by someone who was unaware, or were written prior to some of the current models going into production.
Remove the red gasket!!! The gasket is only meant for single needle machines!!! It prevents grounds from coming out. But if you have 5 needle system the gasket is not needed due to the fact that they already plug itself.
@@doogm7129 thx. The instructions don't tell u this
@@doogm7129 Thank you! The directions do not tell us this!
yes!
Mine doesn’t fit in my keurig???
Get an electric kettle and a pour over funnel. Quickly brew a cup of coffee without fussing with this.
What about cleaning? DIshwasher?
Mine doesn't fit because of the pin on the bottom. Are you supposed to break the bottom by the pin?
You REMOVE the basket entirely. It just pops out if you place your thumb where you'd insert a K-cup and use your fingers underneath to push it up. Remove the basket and the reusable K-cup should sit right down in the notched hole. Make sure the little tiny white arrow on the lid points towards the Keurig. If you have a Keurig with the five needles, remove the little red stopper so that the 5 needles can have a hole each to inject hot water. If you have a Keurig with only 1 needle leave that red stopper in. Also, if you have a newer Keurig remove that light grey bottom plastic piece that has a raised plastic spine that runs up the side of the reusable K-cup. If you have an older Keurig, leave it attached. Hope this helps.
@@jimb8738 Thank you. 😊
what is the point of the adapter if you just have to take it off to brew the coffee?
this is the reason I'm here, the adapter...what and why is it there? I didn't even know it came off, directions don't tell you to take it off, so the darn thing won't fit in the keurig correctly lol sheesh.
Oh, ours also said "Plus" or whatever on the box, so I ASSUMED... the adapter is used, guess not ha ha.
Is this the same size as the pod used in the Carafe? I was using paper filters in the original, and this My-Cup is a little bigger, where they’ll no longer fit. But there are other, larger paper filters used in the Carafe, which I don’t have.
Wondering if I can use those if the Carafe pod and My-Cup are about the same size? That way I’m not forced to choose enhanced 5-prong flavor over leftover sediment!
I did this and my coffe splatters alllllll over doesn’t even make it into the cup and the little that does it’s full of coffee grinds???
Let's look into this for you, Clobi. Please contact our Consumer Care team at 1-800-361-5628 or email via krg.bz/3tO8Raw 😊
The universal pod has terrible instructions and does not clarify any of this
I know the label SAYS it works with all “home brewers”, but has anybody personally tried using one of these with the K2500 commercial brewer? If so, did it work?
I can confirm the the My KCup filter works perfectly with the K2500 brewer
I didn’t see what too do with the red plug.
mine leaks and drips from around the hole where the cup goes in even after taking the red rubber thing out.
LISSY PEREZ IF YOU TAKE THE RED RUBBER THING OUT. MAKE SURE YOU PUT IT BACK ON THE SAME WAY. BECAUSE THE HOLES ARE WIDER ON ONE SIDE. THEY ARE DIFFERENT SIZES.
So we have the K-Cafe and I used the new my K Cup for the first time this morning and there were grounds everywhere. Unfortunately, you have to make sure the red silicone thing is pushed in all the way to seal the whole top. I wish they sold two different ones.
I find i get residue in my coffee with this k cup. Anyone else experience this?
So why not just buy regular $15 coffee maker?
We will. We just need a little bid of time and waisted $150.
if they all use the same k cups, why would a "2.0" model need an adapter? Why not just make a filter that fits them all the same way, just like the k cups fit them all the same way????
Call me crazy but this universal adapter does not work on my Keurig and I have the exact one that's in the video
doesnt work for k cup supreme
apparently you don't need a filter but if you don't use one then you end up getting grounds down your sink drain because you can't get them out fully just by shaking over the trash can.
Can I use this with my k-mini?
Nope.
I can’t take the cup out
This is my second Keurig Coffee Brewer. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf The first one lasted 6 years. It worked beautifully until the day it didn't. It was hard to go back to the drip coffee for a couple of days while I waited on my Keurig to get here. There is a huge difference in the taste. Keurig makes a really good cup of coffee. This new one is a little different from my old one. I find putting the water filter in was easier than on the old one. Attaching the water reservoir was also a little different but once I figured it out, it too was easier. This new one has the auto off feature but is not programmable like the old one. Only three cup sizes instead of four. The odd thing for me was how much lighter in weight this one is compared to my old one. More plastic and much less metal in the construction of this one. The price is so much less than the original Keurig that I bought and the coffee tastes the same so all in all I am satisfied.
I am sorry to hear that you have a very bad. Sour throat BUT eye enjoy the music very much. Thanks
Just in case anyone still can’t figure it out. Push it from underneath the pod and push up.
BeenThere
the My K-Cup is now stuck in my Keurig and I can't get it out!!! The whole Keurig cannot be used.
Anyone else has water leaking while using this? My kuerig is brand new.
Also see my video on saving money on your next cup of coffee.
Doesn't fit a K35 machine.
to use the red plug pad or not...that is the question....
does anyone else have coffee splattering all over the place?
Doesn't work 😭😭😭😭
You didn't show how the pouring coffee just dribbles all over...
Mine works perfectly.
Worst design EVER!! The lock doesn’t hold!!! It blows out consistently, leaving a huge mess inside the brewer, which, in another design mishap, is a big pain in the ass to clean up... Can’t wait for someone to design a better one off brand...
Here is an updated video demo I made illustrating the way to use this filter. Including the red gasket:
th-cam.com/video/fCJwAt5LoII/w-d-xo.html
Deer Keurig, I returned your coffee maker because you did not include a reusable filter so that I can use my own coffee. I ended up with a lot of headache trying to find a filter that worked but I did not succeed. You are fired.
If you have the type of brewer as shown (with four water spouts) you also NEED to REMOVE THE RED PLUG on the inside of the basket lid, otherwise the four water spouts won't work correctly. BTW the instructions included with the Reusable Filter are WRONG.
Does anyone notice it makes less of a mess without the red plug or is it just me?
Make your dang keurigs hotter . I add a little creamer and its luke warm. And the new heat settings are a joke and do nothing i tested all three with a thermometer. All for looks does 0. Make the machine hot. If you worried about a law suit make a unlock feature a user has to unlock so there aware and can not sue. I like hot hot coffee not cold.
The best way to use this new design is to take it back to the store that you bought it at for a refund and try to find the original version of this. The new version is ridiculous.
