- How to get your Descale light to go out. How to turn off Descale Light Walmart Keurig K-Express Essentials . I show you how to clean/descale your Walmart Keurig K-Express Essentials Single Serve K-Cup Pod Coffee Maker. I show you the descaling procedure right out of the quick start guide from Keurig. How to turn off your descale light. This Keurig has a descaling mode you have to put the machine in and complete it step by step in order for the descale light to go out. I show you how much distilled white vinegar to use and how much water. What the ratio is 1 to 1. I show you how to do the water rinse to complete the descale mode. How to get descale notification to go off. Your coffee maker will turn on the descale light after 250 brews. I show you how to activate the descale mode by pressing the 6oz button and the 10oz button with the power button off. How to fix when the add water light will not go out during descale. The descale mode has a glitch or fault. When you are done running the descale agent throughout the coffee maker you then refill the water reservoir with fresh water then the add water light should go out. It goes out and then comes right back on. I show you how to fix this by removing about 1/2 the water out of the reservoir and reinstall the water reservoir and the light should go out. Then fill up the reservoir with water to finish the descale procedure.

NEVER delete this video. It's 6 months later (see I posted 6 mo ago?) and I keep coming to the video for my descaling. Just play it and follow along.
Thank you Dad, I still put my laptop on the kitchen counter and watch your video every single time when I'm descaling my Keurig machine, great job with the video, easy to follow along. Cheers to you.
That is awesome!
This is by far the best and most in depth video showing the de-scaling procedure for this type of Keurig machine. It’s my go to and I have it saved in my RUclips videos for whenever my machine needs another de-scale. Thank you. In the video you say you’re amazed that you have 3k followers, well look how many you have 3 years later. 145k. That’s awesome and a true testament to the quality of your instructional videos and reviews. Keep up the good work.
Just a dad, you are the best! So happy there is someone who does the job for people like me who don't read the instructions.
This is our second K-Classic. We had our first one for many years, so when we had to replace it, we wanted nothing else but this exact ruclips.net/user/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf model. We use it for about three people everyday in the morning. The taste and quick brew is one of the reasons we like it so much. There are so many choices of brands of coffee that we would grab what was on sale and test the different brands from there. I would definitely recommend trying different brands of coffee to find the ones you like the most because there are brands that quite frankly taste horrible.
76 year old in North Carolina. If I could hug your neck, I would!! I had gone through the procedure (I am a retired Chemist....it's hard to deviate from a procedure :) several times. Until I went completely through your video, it finally worked when I DID NOT fill the rinse reservoir before putting it back on the K-Express. I would have never thought of doing that. Thank you so much for sharing this. I LOVE my coffee maker but was ready to throw it out the door!
Oh wow! Good job!! so proud of you!!!!
thank you for all that you do, I was able to rescue two Keurig's and this is the way I descale. Thank you so much...from Oh Canada...
You are so welcome!
I’ve watched this video numerous times. In fact, every time my Descale light comes on I think “Let me view Just A Dad’s video again” Your info is thorough, concise and easy to follow. Not just for this video but for all that you do. Thanks again.
Thanks for sharing!
At times, I get overwhelmed trying to follow instructions and end up being confused/frustrated. Your instructions were precise and easy to follow. Thank you for taking the time to make this video! 💜
Your so welcome!!! thanks for watching!!!!
Anytime I have to descale my keurig I always look for this video…straightforward to the point an easy to follow.
Thank you so much! You were great at explaining and walking through directions!
I've used this video twice and appreciate your clear instructions. Thank you for keeping it simple.
I totally agree! I just descaled mine for the first time since i purchased in 2022 and I watched this as I descaled! Literally explained just like my dad would thanks!
I live in Kentucky and used this video to talk my 84 year old grandmother who lives in NE Ohio through descaling her Keurig. I love that this is the EXACT model she has and I was able to be on the phone with her and effortlessly talk her through the process! Thank you so much Just a Dad!!!!
Thanks a bunch 👍🏿
Where in NE Ohio? I live here too. Madison Ohio to be exact.
Thanks Dad! This is the second time I’ve pulled up your video to descale my Keurig. I’m now ready to enjoy a nice drink after all my “hard” work. Cheers!
THANK YOU YOU JUST SAVED MY 3 MONTH OLD MACHINE FROM THE sledgehammer I WAS GOING TO BEAT IT TO DEATH THAN BUY ANOTHER COFFEE MAKER FROM A DIFFERENT COMPANY.
Good job getting it done!
After following the instructions on the Descale solution bottle exactly, including waiting 30 minutes and at least 12 rinses, my descale light came back on and would not go off. After several Google searches, I came across your video and followed all instructions using vinegar as I was out of the solution. and was able to get the light off. Interestingly enough, my bottle has no mention of placing it in descale mode or anything related. The first time I knew about this mode was in your video. I descaled because the light had come on. Thank you so much for your easy and informative video
Thanks. Tried it once and it didn't shut off the descale. Then, after following your video, it worked! Thanks, "Dad"!
Excellent!
I tossed the manual out, so this video saved me.
This was very helpful! Finally got my Keurig descaled! Thank you!
Excellent step by step instructions. Impossible to have a better way to explain and show anywhere else.
Wow!! thanks so much for your kind words!!!
Could not figure out how to descale my Keurig so the descale light would actually go off until I ran across your video. Thanks so much!!
Great to hear!
Thank you "just a dad" you are my go to video to descale my machine.
Wow, thanks
This video is much better than the first one with the Descaling solution.
Woo Hoo! Followed your instructions and it worked perfectly! When the ADD WATER wouldn't go out, even after following your instructions, I went ahead and pushed the 8 oz. button and it worked fine. The descale light went out and it works perfectly! I did this on another Keurig Essential I had, but it wouldn't work AT ALL after I descaled! Pretty sure I messed up the descale instructions, but I ended up getting another Keurig from the manufacturer. I was hesitant to try again on my new one, but your video was extremely helpful and it worked like a charm!! THANK YOU!
TY!! I spent 2 hours trying to get this light out.. I lost the manual! You are THE BEST!
Thanks for watching and your kind words!!! That was so nice of you to take the time and leave such a nice comment.
What is your favorite K cup?
I use the refillable pods and Moe's Coffee Co. Black cherry dark roast. Omg .it's so good! And.. Bones maple bacon..to die for lol
Best video I have ever found. I appreciate the easy steps!!
You're welcome!
This has been one of the best instructions I had to follow!! Ty as I use this over and over again!!
Just a Dad giving us Keurig user's an easy step by step cleaning process. My Keurig came with instructions but for some crazy reason it was like trying to read gibberish!! Keeping it simple! Thank you 😉
Glad it helped!!! thanks!
I'm a newbie with a K- cup coffee maker and this demo is with the one that I have. Thank you for your step by step instructions. Your a coffee saver :)
You are so welcome!
THANK YOU! best video on you tube. I fumbled with this process a million times and just left the descale light on. Manual got chewed up by my Amazon Parrots. Thanks Again
We got our Keurig Express last year and see very time I need to clean it I come back to this video. Thank you!
You're welcome!
I pull this video up every time I clean my Keurig. So helpful and it’s awesome that you take your time explaining everything and showing step by step without rushing. Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
Not me right now, not at all 🙃
Me too lol. Everytime my descale light comes on I pull up this video. I have it saved 😍.
I agree! Literally only use this video!! Thanks"Dad"!!!
I do too!
Sir you were such a big help I tried everything I could think of and could not get descale light off then I watched your video with the vinegar and I did just what you said and I got the light off very very helpful thank you so much for your help
You are most welcome
Young man thank you so very very much. Your instructions were down pat. Have a nice day.
I just cleaned my Keurig by following your instructions. Thank you for the concise and detailed instructions! Subscribed ✅
Awesome! Thank you!
Very informative video for descaling this particular model of Keurig. Thanks!
You are welcome! Thanks for taking the time to leave such a nice review. Thanks for your kind words!!!
Thanks for putting this up. I lost the cleaning directions so this was a big help. Clear and concise. Thumbs up 👍
Thanks, I was about to trash this thing until I watched your video!
Glad I could help
This video was very helpful and easy to understand. Thank you "Just a Dad".
Glad it was helpful!
You made it so simple and easy!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Excellent and easy to follow step by step instructions ( my machine did not have a manual enclosed- so I REALLY appreciate this!). Appreciate the " glitch" explanation, in case that happens. Just ran the whole descale process with no glitches. Noticeable difference in coffee taste. I love that your instructions are very focused and direct. It always dismays me when an instructor uses this platform as a try out for a dramatic role on TV- thank you for not going that direction! Just a Dad is always my 1st " go to" when I need help for any household appliance. Plz keep the videos coming!
Wow! I really appreciate your kind words and I am happy I am your "go to" for videos!
@@JustADad I bought a new machine like this one that you are showing everybody how to descale and cannot get it to even come on can you help me with this
I successfully descaled my machine with your video. Thank you sir 🫡
Thanks for this additional video and information, crossing my fingers that I follow the instructions properly 🙂
Fingers crossed!
Thank you for showing us how to do this! The descale light came on this morning and I really didn’t want to have to go out and buy the solution. I never even thought of using vinegar, so this is awesome! I tried it out and it worked perfectly, thanks again!
Awesome, thanks for the feedback!!! Good job researching and figuring out how to do it!!! Good job! I am very Proud of you!! way to go!
I use vinegar for almost everything but how to do this efficiently was my problem. I was going cup by cup. LOL 😂
Thank you for your well scripted and nicely demonstrated instructions on how to descale my Keurig K Express Essentials K cup Coffee Maker. Suddenly today the water (coffee) from my Keurig coffee maker was coming out stone cold - otherwise it was behaving normally. Needless to say this was really annoying when you really could use a coffee and you know that the machine is barely past 3 months old! A little bit of Googling and I discovered that the descaling process might resolve my machine's problem. After another bit of quick Googling asking how to descale this model, your video came up near the top of the results. After watching your video it was easy for me to repeat the process on my machine. I suddenly became very hopeful when the water came out hot during the very first 8oz descaling run. You could also see some small flakes of scale in the bottom of the cup. That was unexpected (although the flakes had completely dissolved in the vinegar solution by the time all of the first 8 ounces finished coming out). That made me think. Before starting the 3rd descaling run, I waited 15 minutes before hitting the button and starting the next. The thought being that now the vinegar solution was everywhere inside - the heating tank and in all the pipes - perhaps let it sit(soak) there a bit to work on (further help dissolve) any stubborn scales. I figured it couldn't hurt - it might only waste some of my time... Finally, after rinsing it twice like you suggested, that first cup of coffee was fantastic (and a big relief). Thanks again for your time and effort to develop and make this video. 🙂 ☕
Wow!! what a story, thanks for sharing!!! this will help others for sure!!! Glad it worked out and good job for sticking with it and getting it done!
Lifesaver! I was ready to toss my 3rd Keurig as my husband said no more $ on them (suggested I switch to his tried and true old school coffee pot he’s had for 7 years) which I was Not ready to do. I first watched your video on taking it apart and poking the heating thingy with a paper clip (yes, I don’t do tools or the likes) which then got it to start turning on. Then I tried the descaling your way video instead of the awful way the directions said which made mine foam and go nuts. And will you just look at my husbands face when I proudly presented my working keurig with his tools thrown around the table (I didn’t know which to use so I grabbed a lot of them). He still can’t believe I MacGuyver’d it myself!!! Thank you Thank you!! You made me a hero and very confident in myself!!
Good job!! very proud of you!!!!
Great video! Worked the first time after I followed your directions. Thank you...
Mine worked perfectly. No glitch. I received my machine for Father Day 2022. It is july 29 and the descale light came on. Followed your directions perfectly and the process was flawless. Thanks for the instructional video. It made things simple. If I do get a glitch next time I will know what to do.
Thanks for sharing
This does really help me I lost my manual and I work better with visuals anyway. I’m very new to coffee makers this is actually the first one I ever had I never really used to drink coffee until I start drinking Starbucks and with the Keurig I can get my mocha lattes.
You are so welcome! this is a perfect machine for first time users. Before long you will be an expert and moving up to a bigger more complicated machine. Let me know if you have any questions. My coffee journey was like yours, it started about 4 years ago and I was very intimidated how to fix coffee. That is why I made my channel to help others with there coffee journey, thanks for sharing!!!!
So glad you popped up. I couldn't find the directions. And you helped get the descale light off.
Glad there was a glitch, to show how to resolve it.
I am glad it helped, I thought if it happened to me then I bet its going to happen to others.
Worked perfectly on the first try using your video thank you so much A++
You're welcome!
This is THE BEST descale video I have found. You did a fabulous job explaining everything. So clear and easy to follow. Thank you.
You are so welcome!
Agreed!
Thanks you from Northern Canada for this video!
Ran fresh water through and my Keurig didn't have an improved flow. Running descale #2. Hopefully that works!
My pleasure!
Finally, someone who knows what they are talking about, thank you so very much!!
Thank you for the video! I threw away my manual and this helped immensely and worked w/o glitches for me. I have hard-ish water and brew 5cups a day. So, I suspect I’ll have to do this more frequently and the vinegar is more economical than the solution.
yeah with hard water and 5 cups a day you will have to do this about a lot more often. Thanks for watching and your kind words!!
what is your favorite k cup?
@@JustADad Since they haven't answered you, I'll tell you what mine is so far. Green Mountain Dark Magic is extremely tasty. Peet's Major Dickason is also very good.
@@mng519 Those are some really good coffee's!!!!
Thank you so much for this! My dads wife tried to descale ours 4 times she said and the light stayed on, I woke up this morning and found your video, super easy instructions and a few extra tips! No more descale light for us!!! Thank you! 😊❤️
Glad it helped!
You rock! Thank you for your patience in demonstration!
This is the 2nd time I’ve used this video when I need to descale my Keurig. The instructions are very simple. Thank you
You're very welcome!
This helped me so much! Previously I had an older model Keurig that didn't have a descale mode and I lost the manual to this one. I have the red one, but it looks nice in black :)
Awesome, I am glad it helped. the Red one is so pretty. Did yours descale ok?
What is your favorite K cup?
@@JustADad I had to descale it about 2 times and then rinsed it 3 times with water because I wanted no chance of any white vinegar in my coffee :) I really like Donut Shop’s “Coconut Mocha” coffee but I also like the Dunkin’s dark coffee since I live in MA where there’s a Dunkin’s around every corner.
@@Birbeee Thanks for the update. the coconut mocha sounds really good!!
Hello man! Excellent video! I have the same model with Descale light always on, not flashing, i'm gonna try this tomorrow, thanks for the way you explained, i understand everything, greetings from Monterrey México!!!
Edit: Genius! It works! I just had problems with "Add Water" bug, i have to do it like 4 times!
Thanks
Thank you so much. It is a shame Keurig doesn't have this in their manual instead of pushing their product. Your instructions worked fine for me. There were no add water glitches for me.
I totally agree!
Easy enough for an adhder and autistic to follow so you're doing great at this man, thanks
Oh my gosh you are a life saver! This video was very user friendly and absolutely helped me fix the solution. I tried following the directions on the descale bottle and struggled to fully understand the process. This was so much easier and I will definitely be coming back to this video in the future
Wow thanks so much!
Very helpful! My descale light went out after the vinegar/water bath so I had to power on to do the rinse cycle. I agree with rinsing twice. Thank you Dad!
Awesome!!! Thanks for Watching!! and your kind Words!!!
What is your favorite K Cup?
Same for me.
@@JustADad , right now it is the Fred Meyer Kona. A decent cup of coffee with a splash of half and half. Nothing Starbucks for me.
@@tinatippin5705 I need to try that. Thanks for Sharing. I just like a good cup of Dunkin donuts
Thank you so much , I lost my instructions and this was immensely helpful 🙂
Glad it helped!
Thank you for the video. I had to do it 4 times until your video. I had the exact same glitch on my unit. Thanks for the info and the time it took to make the video. 👍👍
You're welcome!
I found this out by holding down the wrong buttons😀 If you hold down the 10 and 8oz buttons while the machine is off it will run water through the machine as long as you hold them. The water isn’t heated but this might be useful to rinse out the machine a little quicker. Thanks for making this video too!
Wow good find!!! thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the great video. I got my new machine in May and the descale light came on this morning. I used the vinegar, I didn’t have the descale solution. It was easy to follow your video, you and I did it together as I went. My descale light did turn off part way through the process, but I continued to follow your lead. Thank you for the video, easy to understand and now I know how to fix the add water light, if it should ever come on. Thank you!
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?
My descale light went out halfway through the process too and I just finished it out and everything went fine. I agree, very helpful video. Thank you for posting and being so thorough!!
Thank you for the video, now I know how to descale my Keurig. I lost my instructions in a move.
Good job I'm very proud you way to go
I had to throw out two keurigs cz i couldnt descale them….this is the first time it worked thanks to ur video👍🏼
Glad I could help
My Keurig is a gift that did not come in the original box, hence no instructions manual. I successfully completed the descaling, thanks to your excellent video. Thank you so much!
You're welcome
Thanks for the great tutorial, I had no glitches! It's very nice to be able to have a walk through, so thanks for your time.
Nadine in Alberta!!
Glad I could help!
Thank you I lost my manual and you made it far easier than reading it could have been for me 😅
THANK THANK YOU! I agree that its challenging but your step by step showed me the way!
Thanks! Finally a descale how to that helped me with the "glitch"
Glad I could help!
Ty very much this helped a lot was wondering why it said descale and now I know 😊
Thank you for doing this. Would love to see videos on simple fix it things around the house. Like if the toilet paper holder comes loose from wall. Etc etc.
my husband passed away about 2 years ago and I could really use help with things. Thank you 🙏
Thanks Dad,, I couldn’t find my book and was getting frustrated! RUclips took me to your supreme video first… this worked exactly as instructed less your add water saga!!! Thank you 🙏! Much ❤
Great job!
Thanks so much! I lost the directions to mine and I didn’t know how to do it: you made it so easy to follow along with you😊
Edit. Worked like a charm! I`m still recuperating from spine surgery, my laptop in the kitchen threw craps, so I had to write it down in the pc room and hobble back into the kitchen. All vinegar flushes. All water flushes done and light went out. *I did fill my fresh water in the resevoir all the way up to max fill line and maybe a hair more? All is well on my western frong LOL. Cheers dad, well done.
I can’t thank you enough for your well comprehensible, clear-cut video. Keurig customer wasn’t any help. Again, thank you!
Yeah. Keurig customer help was a waste of time for me, too. Thankful for this guy!
❤Used D-Vinegar, descaled, and descale light terminated. Thank you for the invaluable tip.
Thank you so much! I don’t have a dad who knows stuff like this.
I’ve watched this video twice. Once a year ago and I ran without the glitch. This time. Glitched. That little trick works. Thank you sir.
Thank you for this decade tutorial. I watch it everytime I descale my keurig.
Wonderful!
You're the best. I am apparently having to descale every 2 months.
I appreciate the video. I watch it every time I descale
Thank you! Bought the K-Express for the RV in October of 2023 and brought it in the house for the winter. This morning it quit running water through at all. The descale light came on. I found the box it came in, but the manual wasn’t there, possibly still in the RV. We tried the descale method from a couple other videos, called Keurig and were ready to return it. While waiting for an email with the return reference # I took the water reservoir out and towel dried every little crevice as well as the part it rests in. Once I did that the water ran through and it seemed fine, but the descale light was still on. I found your video, followed exactly as you demonstrated and it works like a dream again. The other videos did not talk about how to get into the descale blinking mode. Thank you for taking the time to explain it in detail. No glitches once I completely wiped everything clean. Ready for my morning coffee now. ☕️Its never too late to start over.
PS. I subscribed
I found your vídeo the first time I descaled this exact machine. Now anytime I need to do it, you best believe I’m opening up your video and following along straight through!
This is the fourth time I have descaled my machine. When I went to do it this time I forgot you have to hold the 10 and the 6 in for three seconds so I had to bring your video up. All else worked perfectly. I am glad you have left this video up. Thanks.
Great job!
Oh my gosh!!!! Thanks dad!! I have an aweful habit of throwing away instructions…. Your the best!!
You are so welcome
Thanks so much for this simple step by step guide
You're very welcome!
Thank you for the information, got my keurig to descale.
Glad I could help
My go to for descaling time 👍🏻
Thanks so much for Clear, Step by Step instructions. So very helpful. I refer to your video every time I have to descale my Keurig.
Thank you Sir. Following your instructions Worked PERFECTLY!!! Before coming across your video we had a very hard time trying to get our machine decaled. Liked & Subscribed 👍🏾
You're welcome!
Just received as 2023 Holiday Gift - very helpful! Thks
Thank you so much. I kept trying to get the descale light to go off and it didn't work until I followed your instructions. You are the best!
Thank you for taking time to explain the procedure
Misplaced by Keurig booklet. Video very helpful. Thanks, "Just a Dad". So far no glitches.
Glad it helped!
Thank you for this detailed video! I followed your instructions to a tee. Very helpful 👍🏼
This was so helpful!! Thank you for doing these videos!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so much! I just watched this video and did exactly as you said and I was able to descale my Keurig. Great clear easy instructions. Also, at the end of the video you said you were at 3,000 subscribers and you never imagined you would be there….. I look now and you have 145k ! That’s phenomenal, awesome job! I will make sure to use and amazon link of yours. Thank you! ☺️
