Description

Keurig® Descaling Solution is an important step to cleaning and caring for your Keurig® coffee maker. When used every 3 months, or as often needed, Keurig® Descaling Solution safely and effectively cleanses and removes mineral buildup from inside your coffee maker which can affect brewer performance, taste, and quality of your beverages. An important step of your Keurig® coffee maker maintenance routine, Keurig® Descaling Solution keeps your coffee maker clean, performing at its peak, and beverages tasting their best. Keurig® Descaling Solution is the only Keurig® recommended cleaning solution to be used with all Keurig® coffee makers. Descaling is an important process that cleans the inside of your coffee maker. Over time, calcium deposits called scale can build up inside your coffee maker. If left unchecked, these buildups can affect the performance of your coffee maker and taste of your beverages. Keurig® Descaling Solution is an effective, fast-acting, and odorless solution which helps clean and remove calcium and mineral deposits to keep your coffee maker clean and brewing at its best. To preserve longevity of your coffee maker, we recommend using Keurig® Descaling Solution every 3 months or as often as needed (depending on the mineral content of your water, you may need to descale more frequently). Keurig® Descaling Solution is compatible with all Keurig® coffee makers.

Q: Just bought a Keurig K-70 coffee maker from a thrift store & did the pre brew sequence. Made first cup and now the menu says to "descale". We use distilled water. Do we really need to descale?

submitted by MommyBear - 7 years ago
  • A: And CPap machines. But thats for breathing the humidified water

    submitted byTim - 10 months ago
  • A: While you may be using distilled water, the previous owner(s) might not have. I would suggest descaling at least once for that reason alone.

    submitted byWillieJohn - 7 years ago
  • A: You should never drink distilled water as it will draw calcium and other minerals from your body. Distilled water is only for irons and steamers, not consumption.

    submitted byDeborahChico - 2 years ago
  • A: We recommend descaling your brewer every 3 to 6 months depending on your water quality. Scale is harmless, but if left unattended, it can hinder optimal brewer performance. Descaling your brewer regularly helps maintain the heating element, removable water reservoir and other parts of the brewer that come in contact with water. You can find descaling video instructions here:http://krg.bz/2wHyPzo. Also, you can use distilled water in your Keurig brewer but we don't recommend it because it can change the taste profile of your coffee by making it bitter.

Q: With my first Keurig, years ago, I could use vinegar for descaling. It was convenient and much cheaper. Can I still use vinegar in place of the solution i have to buy in my new model?

submitted by Lori - 4 years ago

    Done with Keurig. Descaling never works. Tossed the whole machine. This was our second one. Descaled as instructed but the light still wouldn't go off and it wouldn't fill a cup of coffee.

    Not happy with Keurig descale procedure

    Very flustered - 2 months ago
    originally posted on keurig.com
    Third time I have tried the descaling procedure on three different Keurig machines, I follow the directions exactly, and the descale light never goes out, hence the machines have all died shortly thereafter. So I don’t know if the descaling procedure worked or not, but obviously not. Will never purchase another Keurig product.
