I explain how I resolved my Keurig B70 coffee maker problems where it wouldn't even brew close to a full cup of coffee and would come to a sputtering stop. I was tired of having to run it four or even five times to get a full cup of coffee.

If this doesn't fix your problems, and you have a Keurig B70 model, you can download a PDF copy of your manual here:
http://www.retrevo.com/support/Keurig-Platinum-B70-Coffee-Makers-manual/id/38...

(If you need a manual to a different Keurig coffee maker model, simply put your model number followed by the words "manual" and the word "pdf" into Google. (ie: "B60 manual pdf"). I downloaded my manual fro Retrevo. Make sure you have Adobe reader installed to open the pdf file.

Anyhow, hopefully this video will help someone else out !!

  • I called Keurig, and this is what they told me to do. It worked great for a week, but then it it started to give one portions of what it is supposed to. It tells me to descale all the time, even a week after descaling ti twice. I let the vinegar set in it with the Keurig on to boil it, but it still didn't help much. I do the paper clip thing now, and it still doesn't work. I'm about to open it up myself and find the problem. Any ideas????

  • @rocki006 Okay, I gotta be honest... First off, I am glad that this video seemed to help a lot of people. Doing this paper clip cleaning helped me as well, but just as you mention it wasn't long before it acted up again.

    My ULTIMATE SOLUTION: Was to call Keurig & complain that nothing was working and they offered to send me a BRAND NEW Keurig at no cost, EVEN A FULL YEAR AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. I then SOLD the new machine, and bought a BUNN coffee machine. Bunn > Keurig. :)

  • what if it wont brew at all-would this still apply?

  • @caseylowe2 Hello. First make sure that the screen isn't giving you a message to "ADD WATER" - If it does and your water reservoir is full then you'll want to contact Keurig customer service (1-866-901-2739). But yes your brewer may not be brewing anything due to be completely clogged with grounds - so certainly try my steps in this video. Also make sure that your reservoir is seated correctly in the base of the unit and power cycling the unit (unplug it and plug it back in)

  • Try not to work in the dark next time so we can see what it is you are doing.

  • @donahu1 I am sorry that the video ended up so "dark". It really wasn't as dark in my kitchen as it seems watching this video.. All of my kitchen lights were on and there was light coming in some windows as well. The problem was because I used a fairly inexpensive digital camera to record this video and I noticed it on the LED screen on the camera. I tried to use a flashlight for this reason to make a better video, but it didn't help as much as I had hoped. 

    I do apologize.

  • @Missy21ify So... let me get this right - Many customers have thanked me for showing them how I fixed my Keurig coffee maker and how this video helped them fix theirs as well. You say that you work for Keurig and customers with similar problems ARGUE with you and considering that, you think I should remove this video? Sorry for making your job "harder" Missy, but perhaps you should suggest to your management to consider referring customers to a video like mine here to make your job "easier"?

  • Good Video, If Missy is really a Keurig employee maybe she has a suggestion as to how to fix the low cup problem???

see all

  • Thanks dude!! I had a feeling that is what I needed to do but I wasn't sure what apparatus to use. A paper clip is definitely available in this house!

  • THANK YOU!!!!!! I tried all the trouble-shooting methods in the Keurig manual and nothing worked until this.

  • @zaktor99 I agree. Bunns are better. My mother-in-law just bought us a brand new Mr. Coffee, new model and all, and that thing is 100% better than this Keurig. I'll try calling Keurig again, before I demolish the thing, and see if we could get a new one. Thanks for the reply!

  • thanks

  • I'm going to try that, thanks!

  • Do you have lights in your house ?

  • Thank you so much!! I mean I haven't tried it yet lol and my problem with my B70 is that it pumps the water but doesn't release anything...perhaps clogged. But thank you regardless!!
