Thank you so much for the cleaning of the Keurig, I have that on the list today to be done, and I didn’t know how to do it. Keep doing what you do, because I learn so much.

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Kay! What a nice thing to say. I so appreciate it. You could put it on your calendar for every three months and you won’t overlook it. What else can I create that would be hw helpful to you?

[@JudyBoardwine]

Thanks for helping me have the knowledge to keep my Keurig clean. Happy Mothers Day

[@myrastamper4945]

I loved watching you, you made it so simple! Thank you. I've just gotten a Keurig so I haven't had to clean it yet.

[@jessiec4128]

Well done, Thank you for showing how to descale our loved Coffee makers. Our Keurig just quit on us, but we have a new one being shipped to our home. Once it comes in after two weeks, I will do this process. I want to keep it clean so the light does not come on. I heard sometimes the light does not go out. Even after performing the clean. So thank you again for this video. Much appreciated.

[@tonydialsr7190]

Thank you for the in service training for cleaning the KEURIG. I have one that is ten years old. It works well. Thanks Again for you instruction.

[@maryellenbarratt6515]

This the most thorough video I've ever seen on cleaning my machine ! Thank You So much !!! ❤️🕊 mine is old too !!!!

[@1906Yogi]

Thank you very much, Denise! Your video helped me a lot!

[@janellelowrance4880]

Excellent video. You saved my machine and I thank you so much.👏👏👏👏👏

After watching this wonder video, I have started today right along with your video ... Thank You

[@detroitmartymar8460]

Great job ... Mrs. Denise. Being a man from Detroit. I find your videos educational. Just subscribed, and will clean my unit more often.

[@mariaramirez2203]

Hello Denise hope you are doing well. Great video on cleaning the Keurig and thank you for the tips. Big Tx hugs from South Tx.

[@borndiy5490]

Enjoyed your video. Recently cleaned mine but now will empty water more often. Never seen a Keurig with that filter. Learned from Keurig that only the Keurig should be plugged into outlet. If I knew would not have throw my first in trash. They need full power from the outlet. Thanks again for a very nice informative video.

[@joshjennifermckinney6062]

I'll be doing this today in prep for Christmas guests who will inevitably want to enjoy coffee after dinner with dessert. I loved the idea of using a furniture mover for moving the Keurig back and forth on the counter. Great tip!

[@homemakingwithdenise]

You are welcome. I learned about the furniture mover a long time ago from another KZbinr. I can't remember who is was but it made so much sense because that puppy is heavy! And it's such a quick and easy way to make coffee. I love mine. My sister has a newer and fancier one but mine is doing just fine.

[@jerryphillips5503]

Thank you very much you was a great help.

[@karensstyleoflife5164]

Thanks for sharing how you clean your Keurig. I need to deep clean mine. Good information! Tfs!!

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Hi Karen, that coffee maker is one of things we see but we don't see. I thought I should tackle it as part of my Zone 2 work and I am so glad I did. The need to clean the Keurig seems to have resonated with quite a few people! Thanks for watching.

[@Truthall]

one of the very few videos to actually address the cleaning of the green build up in the inside of the reservoir very concise easy to follow video

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Thank you. I appreciate you saying such good things.

[@decoratingwithjazigreen]

Great video Denise, thanks for sharing! Me and my hubby tackled this cleaning process recently for the first time. He had the patience for it, I didn’t but we managed it quite well. If I had known it would take all this to clean, I would’ve never asked for this coffee maker. Tfs

[@homemakingwithdenise]

It does take a minute to clean it but I do like the ease of the single serve. However, I've been thinking about all those people letting the water sit in the reservoir and not changing it out daily. I know my daughter does that and one of my sisters. So, hopefully, this video was helpful to some folks.

[@dianehayes3314]

Good Morning Denise ~ I love your videos. We own the same Keurig as you. I have had ours for about 4 years and had no idea that the filter popped out that easy. LOL I also use vinegar/water. I love the idea of a furniture mover underneath the Keurig. Yes, that thing is heavy! I am going to purchase a mover just for my Keurig. Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day.

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Diane Hayes Hi Diana, does yours groan and sound like a sick cow like mine? Hahaha! I’ve had it five or six years but it’s hanging in there. You can even by a replacement filter so you can swap them out. I got the furniture mover idea from another KZbinr a long time ago. Don’t remember who. Thanks for watching.

[@latanyamack5195]

Goodmorning! I deep clean about every 4-5 months because I don't use it on a daily basis, but I use vinegar & water also to clean. Love the furniture mover!!!

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Hi LaTanya, sounds like you’ve got it under control. The furniture mover does make it easy. Thanks for watching.

[@mellaoct]

Thank you!

[@MarysNest]

Oh Denise!! You are such a homemaker extraordinaire!! I don’t have this type of coffee pot but I get such a kick out of how you know how to clean all these things!! You’re amazing!! And I have to tell you how important what you are sharing here is!! I was at the barbershop with my son and they had a waiting room with one of those fancy pod coffee makers. I thought I would treat myself and when I opened the machine to put in the little pod...a roach crawled out!! Egad!! They need you Denise!! Thanks for all you share!! Love, Mary❤️😀❤️

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Mary! Oh my goodness! I would have been horrified. Did you scream? What did the barber say? Oh my goodness. This is crazy. Thanks for watching.

[@michaelsanders1657]

Awesome

[@BougieMagicwithGinaWelds]

So glad I saw this because I was thinking of getting a keurig, but the cleaning, I have seen, is an issue. I don't drink a lot of coffee, but I have the little cups that I can fill with tea blends. Your hair is beautiful, by the way...a bit of the 50s and 60s flair. Beautiful!! Thanks for sharing this very informative video. Grateful for you doing this!

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Hi Gina, thank you so much for stopping by and watching this video. Yes, the cleaning does take a minute but I like the ease of the single serve. I limit how much I drink this way. And thank you for commenting on my hair. I am struggling with what to do with it right now. I like curls. My daughter and sisters say go straight, dump the curls. what to do, what to do!

[@carolbarnes7011]

Very good

[@captainjennifer]

Thanks!!❤❤

[@galleta_2024]

I can't believe you have the same model as I do. I can't remember when I purchased mine. Tried to make coffee this morning and nothing. Groaned/moaned and zero water. Found you and gave it a try and it worked. I'm sitting here with my coffee and so happy you made this video. Cheers and best wishes

[@homemakingwithdenise]

I'm glad you got it working. These things are too expensive not to work. And BTW: I love my coffee makers. It's nice to just make one cup if that's all I feel like having. And yes, I've had it for years!

[@galleta_2024]

I put post it near it to remind me to do that once a month. Thanks@@homemakingwithdenise

[@bethbrown2780]

very informative!!! Thank you . I do everything you did with the exception of I will run a full reservoir with plain fresh water to get rid of any and all vinegar. I once made the error of not and wound up with nasty coffee LOLOL Mine is just like yours except it is red and I have had it forever but it still works great. Oh and I clean it every 3 months. I have it written down on my calendar .

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Beth Brown you know, a full reservoir makes sense. I was playing it safe and going by recommended guidelines but I can see it. Thanks for watching and sharing.

[@nicholaswhite1172]

hi good morning great video you did a great job thumbs up shoutout to you and love the coffee maker it is nice my mom has the same coffee maker thanks for sharing i really enjoyed this it was a great one hope you have a great day take care peace

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Good morning, Nicholas. These coffee makers are so nice and you can do tea, coffee, and hot chocolate if you’ve got the pods. Be sure to share this video with her and tell her hello from Ms Denise!

[@nicholaswhite1172]

thanks i sure will

[@roxanapeterson]

Thanks 😁😁 great video

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Roxana Peterson Hi Roxana, I’m glad it was helpful. How often do you clean your coffee maker?

[@CreativeHomescaping]

Hey Denise! I descale my Keurig quarterly - I have it scheduled in my calendar. The last time I descaled it, I didn't run it through enough times so my first cup of coffee tasted like vinegar 😝 I had run water through at least 4 whole reservoirs but that wasn't enough!

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Wow! Four times! That's a lot. I haven't had that problem but I know that it can happen. It might be good to run the whole reservoir through to prevent that vinegary residue. Thanks for your response. Next time I do this, I'll mention that it might be necessary to run it through more than twice!

[@edp3421]

Thank you

[@Itsalwayssomethingaroundhere]

I used to clean my Keurig the same way. Now we have a Ninja and clean it similarly.

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Lou Ann, what's a Ninja? I thought that was food processor like a Vitamix.

[@Itsalwayssomethingaroundhere]

@@homemakingwithdenise Ninja has a range of kitchen appliances. We have their coffee bar. You can make a pot of coffee or just a cup. Also, has specialty coffee options too.

[@maylinluepann3317]

Different Types of Vinegar Great video. Is there a difference between the distilled white vinegar and the plain white vinegar? Can the regular plain white vinegar be used?

[@LiveLoveLogan]

Great video! Thanks for sharing; I need to clean mine! Looking forward to more content from you; keep in touch :)

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Hi Logan, thank you for watching and yes, if you haven't descaled that puppy...it's time. I did visit your channel and now you have a new subbie...I'm number 873!

[@calstalk1675]

Good video

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Thanks for watching.

[@mellaoct]

Would apple cider vinegar be okay?

[@TheLifeImTryingToLove]

I don't have a kerurig I have a regular coffee maker cause, I drink way too many cups of coffee but, I clean my coffee pot the same way it's an half the morning process!!

[@homemakingwithdenise]

TheLifeImTryingToLove You know, you are so right. Regular coffee makers need to be cleaned well, too. How many coffee pots have you seen at work or here or there and you know they’re not cleaning that coffee maker regularly. Thanks for watching.

[@deb9806]

Thanks for the tips. Mine is in a corner too and I hate moving it out..that was a great tip with the "mover" pad. ; ) Do you use spring water or distilled daily for coffee?

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Actually, I got the furniture moving tip from another KZbinr a long time ago and I keep using it because it works. It slides right out. I do what needs doing and slide it back in. I almost never have to lift it up.

[@gailcraig4495]

@@homemakingwithdenise so....looks like you use regular tap water for your coffee? Or is that filtered water at your sink?

[@jessicamcgill6565]

I don’t drink coffee - cleaning my employer’s machine - thanks!

[@bigchief3917]

😃👍

[@reddboy1325]

Why you put filter back in before descaling?

[@WrestlingErnestHemingway]

Yeah, most these cleaning the Keurig videos never address the filter issue. That was my exact thought. I think it wouldn't be cleanly to use the old filter or leave the old filter in for scaling or flushing. Because when I clean mine I always have a new filter to put in the machine, and I wouldn't run vinegar especially through a new filter because that wouldn't serve any purpose to cleaning the machine.

[@WrestlingErnestHemingway]

Good video and helpful but I don't know about running Vinegar through the filter otherwise that Vinegar taste will probably linger for a lot longer. ? I would think it is much better to just put in a new filter, AFTER cleaning the vinegar through the machine. And it doesn't seem cleansy running vinegar and doing the scaling through or with an old filter. I say leave the filter out and after scaling with vinegar, then add the new filter after soaking it for 5mins and rinsing it for 1min. like the instructions say to do. Anyways, I pointed this out only because no other video posts on all of KZbin regarding cleaning an old Keurig machine that has filters, none of the videos mention what to do with the filters. You ran the vinegar through your current filter in this video. I wouldn't suggest doing that as a used filter isn't cleansy and the vinegar taste will last longer I would think requiring a lot more flushing. ?? And I would suggest if anyone is going to clean the machine, anybody should also be replacing the filter with a new one anyways after they are done cleaning the machine.

[@tyronewalker5764]

How do you flush out that vinegar taste?

[@homemakingwithdenise]

There shouldn’t be any aftertaste. Once you’re done, run it through a couple of cycles with water and it should be fine.n

[@calstalk1675]

Get some pipe cleaners

[@homemakingwithdenise]

Cal’s Talk Where you going to use the pipe cleaner? They won’t fit up into the piercing tool area. That’s why I use a bent paper clip.

[@calstalk1675]

Oooh ok
