IHAVE USED THE DI SCALER BUT LIGHT IS STILL ON. NOW I TRIED VIEGAR AND. THE SAME. I HAVE USED PODS...PRESIDENT CHOICE D.R. COFFE AND ONLY WATER COMES OUR. SOMETIMES, I GET. SOME, BUT VERY LITTLE. CAN YOU TELL ME, WHAT IS WRONG??
I literally come back to this video every three months because I always seem to forget what to do (even though it is simple). Thank you for explaining the process so well!!
Hey “Dad” (I’m a dad too😊) I watch this descale video every time it’s time for descaling our Keurig. Short memory 😞. I thought I’d share some information about the whole descaling process for others and maybe you as well. When I descaled for the first two times, my machine wouldn’t turn back on … dead. I had to watch other videos to see if anyone else experienced this same problem. I learned that it happens enough for others that of course there’s videos on RUclips about what to do. Taking the stainless steel shroud off the machine and locating this small circular thermostat. Taking a small type of point (paper clip) and pushing it into the center and resetting the tripped thermostat. I believe I might have figured out a process to avoid that thermostat from kicking “open” which causes the machine to “quit” working/ turning back on . I believe that if the flushing process if the water is run through one right after the other the machines thermostat gets overwhelmed and heats up hence kicking the thermostat open. I now wait a couple 2-3 minutes in between pushing the “K” button to run the next 12 ounces of water until the machine says add water and then you’re done after the last of the water and descale light goes out. Hope this helps.
Your comment is exactly why I came back to this video today. Thank you! I experienced the same thing after following the directions from Keurig themselves. This video is much more informative in your comment is very helpful for all of us that are experiencing the device not turning back on. 🫡
Exactly what I was looking for! The machine overheated! I wish you had linked a video. I have. No idea where the thermostat is or what it looks like. I guess I’ll have to find a video on resetting the thermostat. And taking off the cowling you mention.
As someone who doesnt have a father figure to ask for these things, I found this super helpful. You are so clear and concise and simple that its easy to understand everything you are saying. You don't miss a step and offer great advice and solutions. Thank you so much for being RUclips's dad lol. Worked great and listened to your instruction the whole way through! Waaaaay better than what Keurig offers in terms of "how to". Thanks again!
Thanks for watching and your kind words!!! That was so nice of you to take the time and leave such a nice comment. Your kind words really do mean so much!!! I am so glad it helped and this is the reason I do my Videos To Help Others!!!! What is your favorite K cup?
You have to let Coffee maker stand for 30 minutes after cleaning solution is completed but before refilling the reservoir with fresh water after cleaning reservoir. The unit has to cool down, if don’t you run the possibility of over heat and shortening out the electrical system and killing your Keurig!! As directed in the instructions on the bottle, but not in the Video?
After wasting a hour+ and a bottle of Keuring descaler following the instructions on the bottle, I found this video. The instructions are very clear and worked perfectly.
As someone who is newly living on their own, I honestly can’t tell you how many times I’ve watched this video - every time it’s time to descale I find this to be a great refresher! Thank you! 😊
I turned to this video every time I need to de-scale. You would think that I would remember by now. Thank you so much for your clear and concise video. It made the process so much easier.
Absolutely excellent instructions!! I did it wrong the 1st time. Found your video and can't tell you how much I appreciate it. Keurig needs to put you on the payroll !! 👍
You're welcome! Thanks for Watching your kind words!!!! I got a good laugh about on the payroll. LOL I just enjoy making video's and helping others, I do make a little money from RUclips from the adds that are shown. It lets me buy a few coffee makers and try them out and figure out how to work on them and clean them. I get to share my Coffee journey with everyone and experience and hear about everyone's coffee journey also.
This is the best video on how to do this. I followed your instructions and after 2 cycles of water my descale shut off. I have to admit I was discouraged but your outlined this perfectly. I only used 1 bottle of the Keurig Descale Solution (purchased at Target $12) and now my machine is working great!
Great job! Awesome job and descaling your machine. Thanks for your kind words and taking the time to leave your feedback. It can be tricky getting into descale mode. so proud of you!!!
Thanking you a second time this weekend. Your other video I repaired my coffee pot that turned off after the descaling cycle and this video I want to thank you for showing me the proper way to put the machine into descaling mode, which I did not know going in the first time. My machine is back on and running and the descale light is out! All is happy in my life thank you so much for your videos 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾. From a frazzled 50 something year old crazy woman who has a coffee machine back!
Just finished descaling my Keurig Supreme coffeemaker with the descaling solution and it was a cinch since you gave us step-by-step directions. Thank you, you made it simple!
So, I went through this process. I used the solution and did exactly what you did. It works!! The only thing I did different though, is that after the first round of Rinsing the solution out, the descaling light didn't go out when it was supposed to. However, instead of unplugging the coffee machine I did the rinsing, and just the rinsing process again from top to bottom. On the second round when the water reached the bottom the light turned off. To anyone reading this, if you would like if your descaling light doesn't turn off at first I recommend doing the rinsing process a second time from top to bottom before unplugging it for a few minutes because it may just need some more rinsing. Sounds like a waste of time, but it's worth a try. Thank you so much for the tutorial kind sir.
This video has been helpful, thank you! One thing that’s worth mentioning, is if you run too many descale cycles in a row, the machine will burn itself out. I did that and fortunately I was under warranty and got a new machine for free. But just something to be cautious of
This was unbelievably helpful - we got one of these machines second-hand for our office and the descale light kept flashing and we couldn't figure out how to do it and I was mentally blocked on googling it - this was exactly what I needed - you explain things so kindly and well! THANK YOU!
Worked like a charm! I had to fill the reservoir 2 times during the rinse but the descale light finally turned off. Thanks for this easy to follow video!
I did the same thing as others mentioned - 3 months after suffering the same difficulty trying to get this done. I followed the directions on the bottle Exactly, twice (!!!) with no success. I then went back to this video that I remembered watching before. The DAD Video added two vital steps that are not mentioned on the bottle label. I followed Dad’s and SUCCESS the first time. Can’t believe that the label could be so wrong and thankful that I found my way back to Dad to get this done.
Thank you so much for this video. I tried this a couple of months ago and didn't have the same result. I was actually very frustrated with the machine and every time I turned it on the descale light was flashing. That drove me crazy, I was going to call the manufacturer but wanted to give it one more try. Your video saved me from calling them. Thank you again!
Thanks for the video. My husband passed away 23 days ago, he always descaled the coffee pot. The descale light came on, watched your video , very easy. My husband already had the same solution you used. Thank you again!
2:38 With the power off press and hold the 8oz and 12oz buttons until the descale light and center button illuminate. Thanks so much for making this. I'll be back in 3 months
Thank you for the simple and clear instructions! I have descaled plenty of K-cup coffee machines and I found that the Keurig K-Supreme is more prone to overheating. And when this happens, the machine will not power on. It will then need to be reset by taking the machine apart and pressing the reset button inside the machine. It happened to me the 2nd time I descaled my Keurig. So now, instead of just about 30 minutes of the descaling process, it takes me a little more than an hour as I wait a few more minutes to cool down the heating element before running the machine through the decaling process. Thanks again!
Thank you for the clear and concise video! You helped fix my issue with the descale light not going off after descaling it. The key was powering it off and then pressing 8oz & 10oz at the same time, and then going through the process because the descale process was initiated. Also, Keurig Descale solution currently sells for $20 at Loblaws in Ontario, Canada. Thanks again!
THE BEST RUclips video showing how to descale the K Supreme. I followed the directions for 2 others before this and of course they don't explain how to enter descale mode or that you don't have to fill the entire reservoir. Very happy 30 min later!
My dad was going crazy over why the light wouldn’t go out! And I couldn’t find any info about the “descale mode” anywhere, until this video! Thanks so much!
Thank you so much! I didn’t have the manual and tried descaling with the instructions on the bottle. It didn’t say how to put the machine in the descaling mode so I just ran it through and the light was still flashing when I finished. I found this video and followed your instructions on how to put the machine into descaling mode and it worked perfectly and the light went off. Thanks again!
Thanks to this video, I FINALLY got my Descale light to stop blinking. Key to descaling ones Keurig is to know what model you have. I didn't know my K-Supreme had a descale mod. I had searched how to descale, and when I saw my model of Keurig (your video), I watched and took notes. VERY IMPORTANT is to have Keurig Power OFF. Thank you again. Watched your "How to Clean Needles" video and that is next.......
Nice work! Yes these are important items to the process and thanks for pointing them out and sharing. What is your Favorite thing you like about this machine?
Back because after years of having a keurig you'd think I'd know how to do this but nope this video helps me every 3 months when the blinky light comes on and i follow and pause at every step 😅 thanks so much for this video such a life saver ❤
Tip: Don't rush this process. Give your Keurig's heat element a chance to cool down a little in between flush cycles. If you go too fast you can trip the thermal cutout inside and you'll need to take your machine apart to reset the thermal cutout. The cover is not easy to get off and even more challenging to get it back together and fit right after you reset the thermal cutout. I recommend waiting 15 seconds in between flush cycles.
@@LashChanceBeautyIt did not fry, the thermal cutout is designed so the machine would not burn up and become a fire hazard. You need to reset the thermal cutout. To do so you will need to take the case off. You will see a small plastic disk about the size of a quarter inside the machine. You will need a slender needle to press in the center of the disc. Once you reset the thermal cutout you can reassemble your Keurig and it should work fine.
I learned this the hard way tonight on Christmas Eve 2024 as I went home for the holiday. I wanted to descale my dad and stepmom's Keurig since they never have done so before. I didn't know this particular model was prone to overheating. After watching this video and another on what it took to reset the thermal switch, my dad helped me take the outer casing apart (much to his dismay, haha). Needless to say, we made a core memory tonight that we'll both never forget!
I had my keurig for a year and my descale came on Monday. I use jugs of water cause my tap water isn't all that great. I had no clue what to do and went on RUclips channe watch your videos l order the kit for descale off Amazon. I done exactly what you done and wow!! It was easy. Thank you so much for this video and explaining how to clean the keurig. Next time I will use vinegar instead the solution. You are awesome!!!
So, I was following the instructions on the descaling solution bottle, it was after watching your RUclips video that the descaling light finally went off!!!! Thank you
Your step-by-step video was perfect. I struggled with the first time trying to do this descaling and failed. My descaling light has been blinking on my machine for so many months now I have no idea. I found this video by accident. I didn't even know the instructions were underneath the Keurig descaling bottle label. Thank you thank you thank you thank you. I forwarded your video out on my Facebook page. Thank you enormously again. Happy holidays
I just finished descaling my Keurig following your instructions. OMG! It was so easy! Your instructions were very easy to understand and I will no longer do without my Keurig because the descale light turned on. I can’t thank you enough for making this video. You’re the BEST!!! 🌻
Just amazing! I love this Keurig machine. It’s straight forward and not complicated, just like your video! Thank you for the detail in your video! It took the ‘now what’ questions away before I could ask them!! Excellent!!!
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a nice feedback. Your kind words means so much. I puts a big smile on my face knowing it helped someone. Thanks!!!😆😀😁
I descaled my Keurig K Supreme and it went dead, so I searched for a fix and found your video on how to open up the K-Supreme and reset the thermostat with a paperclip. It worked, thank you very much! I like the K-Supreme model because of the 5 needles in the head and it makes the coffee hotter than the older models (I had one) Didn’t scuff up or break the tabs at all.. Thanks for the info
Great video! Love the step by step, clear, concise instructions. I knew something was wrong while following the directions for descaling on the bottle and nowhere was there any mention of a Descaling mode, on the bottle or the very brief instruction pamphlet that came with my machine. I found you before all the solution was used up and so I managed to get the machine clean following your instructions. Thanks a bunch! I liked and subscribed. I think Keurig owes you a commission 🤔
Thanks for watching and your kind words!!! That was so nice of you to take the time and leave such a nice comment. Your kind words really do mean so much!!! I am so glad it helped and this is the reason I do my Videos To Help Others!!!! What is your favorite K cup?
@@JustADad I haven't tried a whole lot of different ones yet, but so far Tully's Hawaiian Blend & Panera's Light Blend are the ones I'll buy again. I prefer a mellow, smooth light or medium roast. Do you have any suggestions? ☕
@@kitteemama Yep that is what I like. I like dunkin Donuts medium roast. right in the middle without any extra flavors just coffee. Folgers is also good.
Wow thank you for this! I tried descaling with vinegar and I just don’t think it worked that well. This video goes step by step on how to do it with the cleaner so well!
I am so grateful to you for posting this video. I am a visual person and reading only confused me. I needed to press the 8 oz/10 oz to start the descale process. That is all I was doing wrong. So if it wasn't for this video, I would still be searching. (Subscribed)
Thanks for a great description! I descaled twice and couldn’t get the descale light to turn off. Even had it unplugged overnight. Your directions made it clear to not turn the power on prior to starting the descale procedure. Followed your instructions and it worked like a charm! No more descale light facing me every morning!!!
You're welcome! good job descaling your machine. It is so nice when something goes right. Thanks for the feedback I get so excited when other people fix there machines. thanks for sharing and watching and your Kind WORDS!!!!!
I liked and subscribed, Great video. I performed my descaling step by step with the video and it worked perfectly. Will make sure i descale as recommended now that i know how easy it is. Thank you!
Wonderful! Thanks for Sharing you story, It really made me smile. I never know if these videos help and your positive feedback gives me the inspiration to keep making them and help others. Thanks for Watching and your Feedback!!!!!
@@coachabscheatday2173 Wow that's not good. Try cleaning the needles, I did a video on it, Then unplug it for about 5 min and replug it in. Let me know how this goes. Thanks for Watching. ruclips.net/video/uNSD9ix7kG4/видео.html
Thank you fir the step by step instructions. I bought the solution when machine was purchased but had not really used the coffee maker on a regular bases until 3 months ago. The descaling light came on and I went to work watching your video. Will pick up more solution today to keep on hand. Thank you so much.
Thanks for watching and your kind words!!! That was so nice of you to take the time and leave such a nice comment. Your kind words really do mean so much!!! I am so glad it helped and this is the reason I do my Videos To Help Others!!!! What is your favorite K cup?
Finally, my 78-year-old brain understand instructions. Thank you very much for the way in which you explained and show us in simple terms. You are absolutely wonderful❗️🏆❤ 🤗
I like Folgers Black Silk. I didn't wait for 30 minutes after the solution, I immediately ran 2 containers of water and the lite went out. Will missing out the wait, cause problems ?
Hmm, I've been using CLR to eliminate mineral deposits in my 15 year old Keurig. I pour in about a pint into the reservoir and fill the remainder with water. I cycle the same mixture through the machine several times (capturing the mixture into a cup) and then after that I refill with water and cycle through until all the CLR remnants are gone. I do this about every 4 months- 6 months. My coffee maker's still going strong after all these years!
thank you your video was extremely helpful I followed step by step while I did my unit worked perfectly. also I found the full kit with two extra filter pods at Target for 13.99 Thanks again 🙂
I made the mistake of following the instructions on the bottle and I didn’t know this model has a “descale mode” so I essentially wasted the solution but lesson learned I suppose, now I know 😊 Thank you.
I just bought the bottle and did the same, followed the instructions on the bottle and it does not mention putting the machine into the descale mode. So need to redo? Also anyone know what descaling mode on the machine actually does different?
Fantastic video, I started to do the descale but was lost on getting the machine into descale mode. Very helpful and straight to the point video thank you.
Oh my gosh....4th keurig I've owned and never had to do backflips like this to get a function to work. Thank you, thank you for the great instructions, and thanks to the person who suggested the air blower to get the coffee ground out of the needle!
Thank you so much for making this video! I followed instructions to a tee and couldn’t get the descale light to go off! It’s just a bonus we have the same machine.
Hi. Thanks for the video. I've just descaled my Keurig K-Supreme. And it was very easy. The hard part is finding this solution in Walmart due to the low price. All other stores and Keurig website sells for $12.99, which is ridiculous. Thanks again!
This solution definitely has a smell. Has a slight ammonia smell though there is no ammonia in it. Also my keurig k-supreme splatters everywhere like all the other models and have to clean the side every time I brew a cup.
Have you taken that lower needle basket out and cleaned where the coffee comes out of it at the bottom, it comes apart. ruclips.net/video/uNSD9ix7kG4/видео.html
Thanks, dad! My descale light has been on for over a year now (and I faithfully descaled every 3 months and cleaned out the needle with a paperclip). Not any more! Thank you for your instructions.
Worked just as you said. On the last step, the rinse, I did have to run through almost tw whole reservoirs before the descale light went out, but worked as you video demonstrates. Thank You JAD.
Hi, "Dad" (liked and subscribed several months ago). Thanks for the tip regarding the descale coming on after 250 brews, something Keurig doesn't share with customers. (I'm at approximately 165 brews.) I'm wondering if the number of brews depends upon whether one has hard or soft water. I have very soft water (NYC) and wonder if that will delay the light's appearance requiring less frequent descalings? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the sub! I am not sure about that, I bet it just looks at the number of brew no matter what water you have, but I could be wrong. I hope you way is the way they do it, but that sounds like they would need more electronics in the machine.
I figured the descale light should be prompted by the number of mineral deposits that have accumulated, but that would make too much sense (smirk) when Keurig can just continue to charge for unnecessary descaling solution wherever possible (I use vinegar). Thanks for responding just the same.
@@bonnibling I think the older machines did it that way. some people say there descale light never came on. but with these newer ones I think its only on the amount of brews. thanks for shairng
Hey there, I’ve never commented on a RUclips video but I’ve used this video TWICE now to descale my Keurig k supreme machine and this is the second time the machine has completely BROKEN after doing your process. The first time I had to go out and buy a whole new machine because I couldn’t figure out how to fix it internally (following another one of your videos of taking the machine completely apart). This time I contacted Keurig and will hopefully get a new machine after going through their super long process. Anyway, I went and looked at the instructions on the inside label and they are completely different than what you are doing here. I always followed your instructions because I like the how to videos but maybe I should have gone with that was in print because this process has now completely FIRED two machines. Hope this doesn’t happen to others! Good luck.
I would call Keurig customer care at 866-901-2739. This could be a known issue Keurig has with this model of Keurig. I have had other viewers with the same thing. When they called Keurig some of them said Keurig knew about this issue and sent them a new Keurig. They have great customer service. I think you will need proof of Purchase. So sorry this happened. I hate it when someone follows my directions and then it breaks their machine. I am so sorry.
Very stupid design. Can't make a cup of coffee unless you descale. Doesn't give you the option to bypass it. Pretty inconvenient in the morning when you have to leave for work and can't make a cup of coffee.
Excellent clear instructions! Thanks Just a Dad! I’ll be back in 3 months when it is time to descale again! That’s so much easier than trying to remember how to go into descale mode 🤦🏽♀️
It's the best video ever! I have the same coffee maker, and the descaler light came on for the first time. I found this video and it worked perfectly! Thank you....
Watched for the second time because my Keurig needed descaling again! I am glad I saved this video. The prices of the solution went up. I paid almost $11 but I’d rather pay for what has worked well before than having a bad job done in a coffee maker that I really like. Thank you so much for a very detailed and helpful video.
Bro I appreciate this video! Everytime I descale my machine I watch this video while I am doing it 😅 even though I have done it, IDK how many times! I have the video saved so it is easy to find. Thanks 👍
I just descaled this morning! Your advice is extremely helpful! Your extra tips are great. Sometimes directions with products don't give you the full picture of thing. Thank you for your excellent videos! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This happened to me 🙂🙂🙂
This was unbelievably helpful - we got one of these machines second-hand for our office and the descale light kept flashing and we couldn't figure out how to do it and I was mentally blocked on googling it - this was exactly what I needed - you explain things so kindly and well! THANK YOU!
“Turn the power off, then hold 8 & 12 for 3 secs” was my 🤯🤯🤯
This is awesome - the bottle doesn’t say anything about the descaling mode - you’re the man, thanks!
Worked like a charm! I had to fill the reservoir 2 times during the rinse but the descale light finally turned off. Thanks for this easy to follow video!
Your welcome!
I also had to refill the tank twice when rinsing before the light turned off.
I did the same thing as others mentioned - 3 months after suffering the same difficulty trying to get this done. I followed the directions on the bottle Exactly, twice (!!!) with no success. I then went back to this video that I remembered watching before. The DAD Video added two vital steps that are not mentioned on the bottle label. I followed Dad’s and SUCCESS the first time. Can’t believe that the label could be so wrong and thankful that I found my way back to Dad to get this done.
Thank you so much for this video. I tried this a couple of months ago and didn't have the same result. I was actually very frustrated with the machine and every time I turned it on the descale light was flashing. That drove me crazy, I was going to call the manufacturer but wanted to give it one more try. Your video saved me from calling them. Thank you again!
You're so welcome!
Thanks for sharing you story! I love to hear everyone's story!

Thanks for the video. My husband passed away 23 days ago, he always descaled the coffee pot. The descale light came on, watched your video , very easy. My husband already had the same solution you used. Thank you again!
Good job!!! I am and I am sure your husband are very proud of you!!! way to go!!!!
Let me know if I can help in any way!
Crystal, I’m so sorry for your loss.
Thank you so much!
Sorry for your loss, Crystal. May he rest in eternal peace.
@@DBR00 , thank you!
2:38 With the power off press and hold the 8oz and 12oz buttons until the descale light and center button illuminate.
Thanks so much for making this. I'll be back in 3 months
Your so Welcome!!!
Thank you for the simple and clear instructions! I have descaled plenty of K-cup coffee machines and I found that the Keurig K-Supreme is more prone to overheating. And when this happens, the machine will not power on. It will then need to be reset by taking the machine apart and pressing the reset button inside the machine. It happened to me the 2nd time I descaled my Keurig. So now, instead of just about 30 minutes of the descaling process, it takes me a little more than an hour as I wait a few more minutes to cool down the heating element before running the machine through the decaling process. Thanks again!
Thank you!!!!
You explained it better than the official keurig video which omits the fact that the machine has to be off!!!!!!!
Thank you so much
Your Welcome!!
What is your favorite K cup?
I myself come back and watch your video . Because you do an exceptional job explaining and showing everyone exactly how to do this. Thank you!
Thank you for the clear and concise video! You helped fix my issue with the descale light not going off after descaling it. The key was powering it off and then pressing 8oz & 10oz at the same time, and then going through the process because the descale process was initiated. Also, Keurig Descale solution currently sells for $20 at Loblaws in Ontario, Canada. Thanks again!
THE BEST RUclips video showing how to descale the K Supreme. I followed the directions for 2 others before this and of course they don't explain how to enter descale mode or that you don't have to fill the entire reservoir. Very happy 30 min later!
My dad was going crazy over why the light wouldn’t go out! And I couldn’t find any info about the “descale mode” anywhere, until this video! Thanks so much!
Thanks for Watching and your Kind Words!!! Thanks for sharing your story I love the hear everyone's story!!!
Thank you so much! I didn’t have the manual and tried descaling with the instructions on the bottle. It didn’t say how to put the machine in the descaling mode so I just ran it through and the light was still flashing when I finished. I found this video and followed your instructions on how to put the machine into descaling mode and it worked perfectly and the light went off. Thanks again!
Thanks to this video, I FINALLY got my Descale light to stop blinking. Key to descaling ones Keurig is to know what model you have. I didn't know my K-Supreme had a descale mod. I had searched how to descale, and when I saw my model of Keurig (your video), I watched and took notes. VERY IMPORTANT is to have Keurig Power OFF. Thank you again. Watched your "How to Clean Needles" video and that is next.......
Nice work! Yes these are important items to the process and thanks for pointing them out and sharing.
What is your Favorite thing you like about this machine?
Great tutorial video. It was easy to clean my machine. As of 9/2022 the solution at Walmart is up to $8.98 if anyone needs to inquire
Thank you so much for making descaling my Keurig K-Supreme so much easier than the directions on the bottle.
You are so welcome! I am glad it helped!!! Thanks for Watching and your kind words!!
What is your favorite K cup?
Back because after years of having a keurig you'd think I'd know how to do this but nope this video helps me every 3 months when the blinky light comes on and i follow and pause at every step 😅 thanks so much for this video such a life saver ❤
Tip: Don't rush this process. Give your Keurig's heat element a chance to cool down a little in between flush cycles. If you go too fast you can trip the thermal cutout inside and you'll need to take your machine apart to reset the thermal cutout. The cover is not easy to get off and even more challenging to get it back together and fit right after you reset the thermal cutout. I recommend waiting 15 seconds in between flush cycles.
I followed these steps and now my Keurig won’t turn on. Is that what happened it fried ? 😢
@@LashChanceBeautyIt did not fry, the thermal cutout is designed so the machine would not burn up and become a fire hazard. You need to reset the thermal cutout. To do so you will need to take the case off. You will see a small plastic disk about the size of a quarter inside the machine. You will need a slender needle to press in the center of the disc. Once you reset the thermal cutout you can reassemble your Keurig and it should work fine.
Darn this happened to me just now too 😅
I learned this the hard way tonight on Christmas Eve 2024 as I went home for the holiday. I wanted to descale my dad and stepmom's Keurig since they never have done so before. I didn't know this particular model was prone to overheating.
After watching this video and another on what it took to reset the thermal switch, my dad helped me take the outer casing apart (much to his dismay, haha). Needless to say, we made a core memory tonight that we'll both never forget!
I had 2 units crash and burn when descaling. I was told by Keurig to only use their solution. Great explanation. Thank you.
I had my keurig for a year and my descale came on Monday. I use jugs of water cause my tap water isn't all that great. I had no clue what to do and went on RUclips channe watch your videos l order the kit for descale off Amazon. I done exactly what you done and wow!! It was easy. Thank you so much for this video and explaining how to clean the keurig. Next time I will use vinegar instead the solution. You are awesome!!!
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching and I am glad it helped. Thanks

So, I was following the instructions on the descaling solution bottle, it was after watching your RUclips video that the descaling light finally went off!!!!
Thank you
Your Welcome. Yeah the descaling mode is kind of hidden and not easy to do. Thanks so much for your kind words!!
what is your Favorite K cup.
Yes, that happened to me too, so thank goodness for the easy to understand directions in this video!
@@jcnanny Glad it helped thanks for Watching!!! What is your favorite K Cup?
This is the best descale video out there. I come back to this video every time. Thank you so so much!!!
Your step-by-step video was perfect. I struggled with the first time trying to do this descaling and failed. My descaling light has been blinking on my machine for so many months now I have no idea. I found this video by accident. I didn't even know the instructions were underneath the Keurig descaling bottle label. Thank you thank you thank you thank you. I forwarded your video out on my Facebook page. Thank you enormously again. Happy holidays
so glad it helped!!! thanks for sharing!!!
I just finished descaling my Keurig following your instructions. OMG! It was so easy! Your instructions were very easy to understand and I will no longer do without my Keurig because the descale light turned on. I can’t thank you enough for making this video. You’re the BEST!!! 🌻
Just amazing! I love this Keurig machine. It’s straight forward and not complicated, just like your video! Thank you for the detail in your video! It took the ‘now what’ questions away before I could ask them!! Excellent!!!
Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a nice feedback. Your kind words means so much. I puts a big smile on my face knowing it helped someone. Thanks!!!😆😀😁
Perfect video! Couldn’t find my booklet so RUclips to the rescue again. Thank you for doing this video!
I Love your calming voice and perfect step by step directions. Miss my dad.
Sorry to hear that. Thanks for Watching and I bet your dad was a great DAD!!!
It worked thank you so very much
@@margaretjones2379 I am glad it worked. thanks so much for watching!!!
I descaled my Keurig K Supreme and it went dead, so I searched for a fix and found your video on how to open up the K-Supreme and reset the thermostat with a paperclip. It worked, thank you very much!
I like the K-Supreme model because of the 5 needles in the head and it makes the coffee hotter than the older models (I had one) Didn’t scuff up or break the tabs at all..
Thanks for the info
Mine went dead we messaged them and they sent us a new one for free. After that they didn’t want it back so we are gonna try to fix the other one.
Great video! Love the step by step, clear, concise instructions. I knew something was wrong while following the directions for descaling on the bottle and nowhere was there any mention of a Descaling mode, on the bottle or the very brief instruction pamphlet that came with my machine. I found you before all the solution was used up and so I managed to get the machine clean following your instructions. Thanks a bunch! I liked and subscribed. I think Keurig owes you a commission 🤔
Thanks for watching and your kind words!!! That was so nice of you to take the time and leave such a nice comment. Your kind words really do mean so much!!! I am so glad it helped and this is the reason I do my Videos To Help Others!!!!

@@JustADad I haven't tried a whole lot of different ones yet, but so far Tully's Hawaiian Blend & Panera's Light Blend are the ones I'll buy again. I prefer a mellow, smooth light or medium roast. Do you have any suggestions? ☕
@@kitteemama Yep that is what I like. I like dunkin Donuts medium roast. right in the middle without any extra flavors just coffee. Folgers is also good.
Spot on! I had the same experience! lol. Gland this vid was up; and , YES! Keurig needs to give him a commission and a link to this vid.
Clear and simple directions for descaling my Keurig. I have this RUclips video bookmarked and use it each time revealing is needed.
Thanks for sharing!
Wow thank you for this! I tried descaling with vinegar and I just don’t think it worked that well. This video goes step by step on how to do it with the cleaner so well!
You are so welcome!
What is the best part of this coffee maker you like?
I am so grateful to you for posting this video. I am a visual person and reading only confused me. I needed to press the 8 oz/10 oz to start the descale process. That is all I was doing wrong. So if it wasn't for this video, I would still be searching. (Subscribed)
Thanks for a great description! I descaled twice and couldn’t get the descale light to turn off. Even had it unplugged overnight. Your directions made it clear to not turn the power on prior to starting the descale procedure. Followed your instructions and it worked like a charm! No more descale light facing me every morning!!!
You're welcome! good job descaling your machine. It is so nice when something goes right. Thanks for the feedback I get so excited when other people fix there machines. thanks for sharing and watching and your Kind WORDS!!!!!
I have the same descale light I was getting sick of it. I ran vinegar a few times. Let it sit 30 min and ran a few cups. Seemed to work.
I literally need you every time I need to descale my Keurig. Thank you for always being here for me!
Happy to help!
I liked and subscribed, Great video. I performed my descaling step by step with the video and it worked perfectly. Will make sure i descale as recommended now that i know how easy it is. Thank you!
Thanks for the sub! Glad it helped and you did a great job. Thanks For Watching!!!
The only video I watched with clear-cut instructions that got my Keurig descaled and the light to go off!!!! 🎉😊
Glad I could help!

Wonderful! Thanks for Sharing you story, It really made me smile. I never know if these videos help and your positive feedback gives me the inspiration to keep making them and help others. Thanks for Watching and your Feedback!!!!!
My light came on and I can’t get anything to come out of the machine.
@@coachabscheatday2173 Wow that's not good. Try cleaning the needles, I did a video on it, Then unplug it for about 5 min and replug it in. Let me know how this goes. Thanks for Watching. ruclips.net/video/uNSD9ix7kG4/видео.html
Me too!! This video help me a lot
@@fresitabella8 Thanks for you kind words!!!!
Thank you fir the step by step instructions. I bought the solution when machine was purchased but had not really used the coffee maker on a regular bases until 3 months ago. The descaling light came on and I went to work watching your video. Will pick up more solution today to keep on hand. Thank you so much.
You're welcome! Good job figuring it out and getting it done!! very proud of you!
Great video!! I really appreciate letting us know that it might take 2 cycles of solution for the light to come off. This was extremely helpful!

@@JustADad I like the Starbucks blonde roast k cups the best and I always use the “over ice” setting.

@@JustADad I like the Silk almond milk creamer!
@@1996katiemae I bet that taste really good
Finally, my 78-year-old brain understand instructions. Thank you very much for the way in which you explained and show us in simple terms. You are absolutely wonderful❗️🏆❤ 🤗
Thank you!
Explained to me like a 5 year old!
Worked as instructed.
Perfect 👌
You're welcome!
What is your favorite k cup?
I like Folgers Black Silk.
I didn't wait for 30 minutes after the solution, I immediately ran 2 containers of water and the lite went out.
Will missing out the wait, cause problems ?
Hmm, I've been using CLR to eliminate mineral deposits in my 15 year old Keurig. I pour in about a pint into the reservoir and fill the remainder with water. I cycle the same mixture through the machine several times (capturing the mixture into a cup) and then after that I refill with water and cycle through until all the CLR remnants are gone. I do this about every 4 months- 6 months. My coffee maker's still going strong after all these years!
Thanks for sharing!! I need to try this.
What’s CLR?
Thank you from all of us who throw away instructions 🤣🤓
LOL, Thanks for watching!! FYI its not your fault, they did not even put how to do this in the instruction manual that comes with the coffee maker.
I can descale my Keurig now without a problem after watching this video. Thank you.
You are welcome!
thank you your video was extremely helpful I followed step by step while I did my unit worked perfectly.
also I found the full kit with two extra filter pods at Target for 13.99
Thanks again 🙂
Wow that is a good find. Thanks for your kind words!!! Good job getting it done!
I made the mistake of following the instructions on the bottle and I didn’t know this model has a “descale mode” so I essentially wasted the solution but lesson learned I suppose, now I know 😊 Thank you.
No worries! Now you know, Let me know how it goes.
I just bought the bottle and did the same, followed the instructions on the bottle and it does not mention putting the machine into the descale mode. So need to redo? Also anyone know what descaling mode on the machine actually does different?
Fantastic video, I started to do the descale but was lost on getting the machine into descale mode. Very helpful and straight to the point video thank you.
I didn’t put into descale mode until I had used my solution. Then found this video. Grrrrrrr
I watch your video every 3 months when it is time to descale. Thank you
Awesome!!!!
Love how calm and precise he is! I use his sites for everything that I can’t figure out!
I recommend his site to everyone!
Wow thanks so much!!!
Oh my gosh....4th keurig I've owned and never had to do backflips like this to get a function to work.
Thank you, thank you for the great instructions, and thanks to the person who suggested the air blower to get the coffee ground out of the needle!
Thank you so much it was so much easier to follow your directions 👍
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you so much for making this video! I followed instructions to a tee and couldn’t get the descale light to go off! It’s just a bonus we have the same machine.
An awesome experience! Excelle instructions, very clear and concise. Very helpful and easy to follow, thank you!
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching and your kind words!!!

I watch this video every time my descaling light comes on. Wonderful instruction.
Wow thanks so much!
An excellent experience! Very easy to follow, very clear and concise! Thank you!
You're very welcome!
Your instructions are better than the ones on the bottle. The bottle doesn't mention pressing the 8 and 12 button
I went to Walmart. De scaler from Keurig worked perfectly. i bought 4 bottles for about $8.00 each.
Like this if you come back every 3 months to watch this video again. THANKS DAD 😂❤
Hi. Thanks for the video. I've just descaled my Keurig K-Supreme. And it was very easy. The hard part is finding this solution in Walmart due to the low price. All other stores and Keurig website sells for $12.99, which is ridiculous. Thanks again!
Glad it helped!
This solution definitely has a smell. Has a slight ammonia smell though there is no ammonia in it. Also my keurig k-supreme splatters everywhere like all the other models and have to clean the side every time I brew a cup.
Have you taken that lower needle basket out and cleaned where the coffee comes out of it at the bottom, it comes apart. ruclips.net/video/uNSD9ix7kG4/видео.html
Thanks, dad! My descale light has been on for over a year now (and I faithfully descaled every 3 months and cleaned out the needle with a paperclip). Not any more! Thank you for your instructions.
Fantastic! Good Job, Way to go!!!!!
You’re a lifesaver!
Thanks for Watching, Glad it helped!!!
Worked just as you said. On the last step, the rinse, I did have to run through almost tw whole reservoirs before the descale light went out, but worked as you video demonstrates. Thank You JAD.
Hi, "Dad" (liked and subscribed several months ago). Thanks for the tip regarding the descale coming on after 250 brews, something Keurig doesn't share with customers. (I'm at approximately 165 brews.) I'm wondering if the number of brews depends upon whether one has hard or soft water. I have very soft water (NYC) and wonder if that will delay the light's appearance requiring less frequent descalings? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the sub! I am not sure about that, I bet it just looks at the number of brew no matter what water you have, but I could be wrong. I hope you way is the way they do it, but that sounds like they would need more electronics in the machine.
I figured the descale light should be prompted by the number of mineral deposits that have accumulated, but that would make too much sense (smirk) when Keurig can just continue to charge for unnecessary descaling solution wherever possible (I use vinegar). Thanks for responding just the same.
@@bonnibling I think the older machines did it that way. some people say there descale light never came on. but with these newer ones I think its only on the amount of brews. thanks for shairng
Hey there, I’ve never commented on a RUclips video but I’ve used this video TWICE now to descale my Keurig k supreme machine and this is the second time the machine has completely BROKEN after doing your process. The first time I had to go out and buy a whole new machine because I couldn’t figure out how to fix it internally (following another one of your videos of taking the machine completely apart). This time I contacted Keurig and will hopefully get a new machine after going through their super long process. Anyway, I went and looked at the instructions on the inside label and they are completely different than what you are doing here. I always followed your instructions because I like the how to videos but maybe I should have gone with that was in print because this process has now completely FIRED two machines. Hope this doesn’t happen to others! Good luck.
I did this and my Keurig shut off, and will not turn on again even after leaving unplugged for a while.
I would call Keurig customer care at 866-901-2739. This could be a known issue Keurig has with this model of Keurig. I have had other viewers with the same thing. When they called Keurig some of them said Keurig knew about this issue and sent them a new Keurig. They have great customer service. I think you will need proof of Purchase. So sorry this happened. I hate it when someone follows my directions and then it breaks their machine. I am so sorry.
Same thing happened to me twice. They have sent me 2 new machines. Wish me luck on this descale.
This happened to me also customer service said I must have missed a step
I always feel loved when watching these videos, like my dad is teaching me and it gives me happy feelz
Very stupid design. Can't make a cup of coffee unless you descale. Doesn't give you the option to bypass it. Pretty inconvenient in the morning when you have to leave for work and can't make a cup of coffee.
Yikes that's no good. It should let you brew a cup of coffee till you have time to descale it I agree Thanks for Watching
Here’s a virtual hug from me. Thank you so much. I wasted a lot of time and $$$ trying to do this simple task. Blessings.
Wow thanks and hugs back!!!!!
Couldn't find our manual for our Keurig, so your video was a God-send. Thanks so much!
You are welcome!
I use this video every 3 months at home and at work because I always forget how to put it in Descaling mode. -lolz- Love this video! So helpful!
Excellent clear instructions! Thanks Just a Dad! I’ll be back in 3 months when it is time to descale again! That’s so much easier than trying to remember how to go into descale mode 🤦🏽♀️
It's the best video ever! I have the same coffee maker, and the descaler light came on for the first time. I found this video and it worked perfectly!
Thank you....
Great video! You are the only person I have found that gave correct steps to descale this machine! Thanks so much.
Glad I could help! Thanks for the nice words!!!!
Watched for the second time because my Keurig needed descaling again! I am glad I saved this video. The prices of the solution went up. I paid almost $11 but I’d rather pay for what has worked well before than having a bad job done in a coffee maker that I really like. Thank you so much for a very detailed and helpful video.
Bro I appreciate this video! Everytime I descale my machine I watch this video while I am doing it 😅 even though I have done it, IDK how many times! I have the video saved so it is easy to find. Thanks 👍
Absolutely the best video on descaling i watch every time i have too descale. However it is the best education video i have watched.
Best step by step video on RUclips, on how to de-scale a Keurig. Thank you so much for making it so simple. Much appreciated 👍
Wow Thank You!
Thank you for a clear and concise video because the Keurig website was not clear at all.
You're welcome!
Thank you so much for this video. I did it the first time and had no idea what I was doing. The light didn’t go out. This time it did. Thanks again.
You are so welcome! Thanks for Watching!
I love that everytime I descale my machine I come back to this video. Thanks
I just descaled this morning! Your advice is extremely helpful! Your extra tips are great. Sometimes directions with products don't give you the full picture of thing. Thank you for your excellent videos! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
wow thanks so much!!!!
