My Keurig makes brewing noises but doesn't brew.

"I had this problem and called the Keurig support number. They helped me fix it. Your tool bag for this project is a paper clip.

First, take out the plastic holder that holds the K-cups. You should be able to turn it a little and it just lifts out.

Once out, take that piece apart. It easily snaps together and apart.

Once it's in two pieces, you'll see the bottom of the small metal tube that pokes the hole into the bottom of the K-cup. Take the paper clip and insert it into the tube and see if you can dislodge any tiny bits of coffee, tea, or whatever you've been drinking. You can run water over the tube while you do this.

Second, lift up the handle in front all the way up. If you look under the lid, you'll see the second set of tubes that inject the water into the K-cup. There should be three tubes. Use the paper clip and clean them out as well.

Put it all back together and get a glass measuring cup. Run three batches of water through the machine without using a K-cup. Each time, note the amount of debris in the water and how much water is being put into the cup. You want the water to be almost clear and the amount to be consistent.

If this doesn't work, keep calling Keurig support. You have a 1-year warranty and if it won't work, they will eventually agree and send you a new machine. (Assuming you have your dated receipt.) My brother got them to send him a new machine because his stopped brewing too. They didn't want it back so he decided to take it apart to see what the problem was. He said he had a split water line, so in that case, no amount of pipe cleaning was going to help.

Good luck. I use my Keurig every day and really like it."

Also check the filter in the water reserve. I tried all the above with no luck. I then removed the three screws inside the water tank, took out the metal mesh filter, and tried to run the system. Worked perfectly. I then tested the filter by putting water on it, and it was almost water proof.

I am currently serving in Afghanistan and our Keuring B130 quit working a few days ago. We had to go back to the old fashioned coffeemaker, which was very painful. I was waiting on my wife to send some Keurig Cleaner from the states, when I got desperate and decided to research it on the web. I found your site, used the paper clip trick, and ran two cups of straight vinegar through it and it works like a champ again. The Taliban can sleep easier knowing that we're no longer Keurig-deprived of our caffeine fix. Thanks for the very informative site! Happy Holidays to all from Afghanistan!

"Take the top cover off the brew area removing the two silver screws under the lid where the k-cup is located

Removed the zip tie leading to the water filter.

Lifted the black ring that holds the hose that goes to the needle and pull the hose up

Blew back down that line and lots of sediment will come out from behind the filter

Turn the unit on and let it brew hot water into the holding tank just so you can see if it is cleared

Replaced everything to its original position including putting a new zip tie

on the line you removed.

This is the third Keurig I have fixed that has had the same problem.

Generally, you have to de-scale the Keurig every three months

You don't have to use a whole tank of vinegar.

Put a 50/50 mix of vinegar and filtered water in the tank, run it once

Let the brewer sit for 45 mins so the vinegar can act on the scale

Run it a second time and let it sit for 15.

Then empty the tank, washing it throughly or you will get slime that builds up on the side and at the inlet at the bottom of the tank.

Now run the clean water through the Keurig for a few passes until you no longer smell vinegar."

I took the two screws off under the lid opened it up and discovered one of the pump hoses came off. I put it back on and it was good as new. It was easy to get the lid off. Just Need a small Phillips head screwdriver and a flashlight to see.

I had this problem with my single cup unit after it had sat unused for three months. Tried the paper clip, no luck. Then I found a post elsewhere that said that if the pump dries out, it can't re- prime itself. I took a turkey injector without the needle, filled it with water and placed it over the hole in the bottom of the reservoir and gave it a strong blast of water until water came out where the coffee normally does. That did the trick.
