Brewer Features
Signature Brew:
When the brewer recognizes a Keurig® manufactured K-Cup® pod, the Signature Brew light will illuminate to signal the brewer has been set to the strength and temp settings recommended by the expert roaster. If you decide to customize the settings once the K-Cup® pod has been recognized, you will no longer be using the recommended brew settings and the light will no longer be illuminated.

If you want to get back to the recommended brew, press the Signature Brew button and the settings will revert back to the recommended brew.

Customize Your Brew: Use the Strength button to toggle between 5 strength settings: balanced, rich, robust, strong, and intense. When the stronger brew settings are selected, the water flows through the pods more slowly in order to extract more coffee flavor and deliver a stronger taste. Use the Temperature button to toggle between 6 temperature settings: warm, warmer, hot, hotter, x-hot, and max hot.

Create a Favorite: To save a customized brew as a favorite, press and hold the Favorites button; you can save up to 10 favorites. Favorites can be renamed in the Keurig® app by tapping Settings and selecting a favorite to rename. The Keurig® app can also be used to reorder favorites. In the app, tap Settings, then Favorites, then ↑↓ icon, and then drag the favorites into the preferred order. A favorite can be deleted via the brewer or the Keurig® app. To delete via the brewer, select the favorite you wish to delete, then press and hold the Favorites button, and then confirm deletion.

Power On/Auto Off: To power your brewer on, simply press any button or lift the brew handle. Your brewer will automatically turn off after 5 minutes. You can also press and hold the K button to turn the brewer off.

My Brew Style tracks your brewing activity within the app and provides recommendations on favorites we think you will enjoy based on what you've been brewing.

ATTENTION!

Caring for Your Brewer

Regular cleaning keeps your brewer running smoothly. Always be sure to turn off and unplug your brewer before cleaning.

Brewer Exterior


Keep your Keurig® brewer looking its best by cleaning the exterior from time to time. Just clean the plastic with a damp, soapy, lint-free, nonabrasive cloth. Never immerse the brewer in water or other liquids.

Drip Tray


The drip tray can hold up to 4 ounces of overflow and should be emptied and cleaned occasionally. To remove, slide it toward you, keeping it level to avoid spilling. Rinse and clean with a damp, soapy, lint-free, nonabrasive cloth.

Water Reservoir


The water reservoir should be cleaned periodically by wiping the inside of the reservoir and underside of the lid with a damp, nonabrasive, lint-free cloth. Do not dry the inside of the water reservoir with a cloth, as lint may remain. Allow the reservoir to dry completely.

Regular Maintenance

For great-tasting coffee, keep your brewer running at peak performance by following the recommended maintenance schedule:


*To turn off Descale notification, follow the full descaling procedure as outlined in the Use & Care Guide.

K-Cup® Pod Holder


To remove the K-Cup® pod holder from the brewer, lift the handle and grasp the top of the K-Cup® pod holder with one hand while pushing up on the bottom of the K-Cup® pod holder from underneath with the other until it releases. After cleaning, align the K-Cup® pod holder with the opening, using the two front ribs as a guide, and snap into place from the top.


There are sharp needles that puncture the K-Cup® pod above the K-Cup® pod holder and in the bottom of the K-Cup® pod holder. To avoid risk of injury, do not put your fingers in the K-Cup® pod holder.

NOTE: Always remove and dispose of the used K-Cup® pod after brewing.

Funnel


Washing the funnel ensures a fresh beverage experience. The funnel should be washed regularly and can be removed from the K-Cup® pod holder by pulling on it until it pops off. To replace it, orient the snaps to the indent and just snap it back onto the K-Cup® pod holder.

Exit Needle


Remove the pod holder assembly and detach the funnel. Locate the exit needle on the inside bottom of the K-Cup® pod holder. Insert a straightened paper clip into the exit needle to loosen any coffee grounds.

Entrance Needles


Lift the brewer handle and locate the entrance needles on the underside of the lid. To clean the holes in the needles, hold the brewer handle in the upward position and with your other hand, carefully insert a straightened paper clip into all the holes. Gently move it around to loosen any coffee grounds. Lower the handle completely and run a cleansing brew two times. Do not insert a K-Cup® pod.

Descaling Your Brewer

You should descale your brewer every 3 months or when the descale notification turns on. Properly follow the descaling procedure in order to turn off the notification.

Depending on the mineral content of your water, calcium deposits or scale may build up in your brewer. Scale is nontoxic, but if left unattended it can hinder brewer performance. Regularly descaling your brewer every 3 months helps maintain the heating element and other internal parts that come in contact with water. Calcium deposits may build up faster, making it necessary to descale more often.

Descaling Procedure

Before you begin, you will need a large ceramic mug, fresh water, Keurig® Descaling Solution, and access to a sink. Do not use a paper cup. Ensure that there is no beverage pod in the K-Cup® pod holder. Please allow approximately 15-20 minutes for the descaling procedure.

STEP 1: Prepare the Brewer
When the Descale notification appears on the screen, press the left arrow, then choose CONTINUE. Select your descaling product: 2 oz pouch or 14 oz bottle. Next, follow the prompts on the screen to complete the descale process. If you would like to descale your brewer but don't see the descale notification on the display, press both arrows at the same time to open Settings, then select Descale Mode.

Note: Make sure to remove the water filter from the water reservoir if applicable.

STEP 2: Descale the Brewer
Empty the water reservoir and add the Keurig® Descaling Solution to the water reservoir. Pour the entire bottle of Keurig® Descaling Solution into an empty water reservoir. If using the bottle, fill the empty bottle with water and pour into the water reservoir. If using the pouch, add 3 cups of water (24 oz) to the reservoir. Do not insert a K-Cup® pod. Place a large mug on the drip tray.

Press the flashing BREW button to dispense 12 oz of hot water. Discard the hot water and replace mug on the drip tray. Repeat until the water reservoir is empty and the screen says ADD WATER.

STEP 3: Fresh Water Rinse
Rinse the water reservoir and refill it to the MAX fill line with fresh water. Make sure the mug is on the drip tray. When the BREW button flashes, press to begin fresh water rinse. Once the brew is complete, pour the hot liquid into the sink. Repeat this step until the screen says DESCALE COMPLETE. Now the brewer is ready for use.

NOTE: The cleaning action of Keurig® Descaling Solution may result in a "foam" dispensed from the brewer. This is natural, as the solution is reacting with the scale inside. For a brewer that is heavily scaled, the brewer may not fill properly after the descaler is added. If this occurs, you may see little to no output dispensed, followed by the sound of air blowing out. If this occurs:

  • Turn off and unplug the brewer.
  • If there is Keurig® Descaling Solution in the water reservoir, discard the contents, rinse the water reservoir thoroughly, and refill with water.
  • Plug the brewer back in, power on, and repeat the Step 3 Fresh Water Rinse cycle. The brewer should begin to function normally as the solution is rinsed out and the scale is removed. If problem persists, allow brewer to sit unplugged for at least 30 minutes before continuing with the rinse.

Troubleshooting

Grounds in Your Coffee
Grounds may have gathered in the exit or entrance needles and can be cleaned using a straightened paper clip or similar tool.

  • Clean the exit needle of the K-Cup® Pod Holder. Refer to the Exit Needle care instructions.
  • Clean the brewer entrance needles. Refer to the Entrance Needle care instructions.

For optimal enjoyment and to limit grounds in your cup during hot water brews or when transitioning from brewing a coffee pod to a non-coffee pod (e.g., tea or cocoa), clean the exit and entrance needles per the instructions provided and perform 2 cleansing brews.

Excessive Grounds in the K-Cup® Pod Assembly Housing
Do not use already-punctured pods. That may result in grounds escaping through holes in the lid.

Brewer Will Not Close or Brew With My K-Cup®
Due to the number of entrance needles, older My K-Cup® Reusable Coffee Filters may not be compatible with the brewer.

The compatible My K-Cup® filter will have five holes on its lid.

Recommended Brew Settings Are Not Provided or a Keurig® K-Cup® Pod Is Not Recognized
First, make sure your brewer is connected to Wi-Fi® to enable BrewIDTM. Next, ensure the pod that was used was a genuine Keurig® K-Cup® pod by finding the Keurig® logo on the pod's lid. If a Keurig® pod's lid is already punctured, it may not be recognized. Try again with an unpunctured pod.

If the brewer continues not to recognize Keurig® pods, contact Customer Service.

How Do I Connect My Brewer If I Skipped Connecting It Out of the Box?
Make sure you have your home Wi-Fi® password ready. First, download the Keurig® app and select Get Connected to create an account.

If you already have the Keurig® app, go to Settings in the app, select Connect a Brewer, then Get Started. Scan the QR code on the back of the brewer.

Next, press both arrows at the same time on the brewer to open Settings. Press the right arrow to continue to the Wi-Fi® settings.

Press the K button followed by the right arrow to Connect. Tap LINK in the app. Follow the in-app instructions.

Brewer Will Not Brew
If you see the Add Water warning, add water to the water reservoir.

  • A minimum of 6 oz of water is required to brew. Add an additional 2 oz of water to the reservoir to ensure the minimum fill level has been met, then press the BREW button. Repeat until the brewer begins to dispense.

Make sure the water reservoir is seated properly in its base. If the Add Water warning persists even after refilling, contact Customer Service.

Brewing a Partial Cup

  • The exit needle may be clogged. Refer to the Exit Needle care instructions.
  • Clean the K-Cup® Pod Holder; see K-Cup® Pod Holder care instructions.
  • The brewer may need to be descaled. If you have repeated the descale procedure on your brewer two times and it is still only brewing a partial cup, contact Customer Service.

Brewer Does Not Have Power or Shuts Off

  • Plug brewer into its own grounded outlet. If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your brewer may not function properly. The brewer should be operated on its own circuit, separate from other appliances.
  • For energy savings, the brewer automatically turns off 5 minutes after the last brew.
  • If the brewer still doesn't have power, contact Customer Service.

Helpful Hints

Water quality varies greatly. If you notice an undesirable taste in your beverage (such as chlorine or mineral tastes), we recommend using a Keurig® Water Filter or bottled or filtered water. Do not use distilled water.

Service

Beyond these recommended cleaning and maintenance procedures, this brewer is not user serviceable. For service, please refer to the Warranty section of this guide.

Storage

Empty the water reservoir before storing or transporting and take care to ensure that you store your brewer in a safe and frost-free environment. When you prepare to use it after storage, we recommend rinsing the water reservoir with fresh water and descaling the brewer as detailed in the Descaling Your Brewer section.

If you plan to move your brewer to a different location, turn the brewer off, unplug it, and empty the water reservoir. If your brewer has been in an environment below freezing, please be sure to let it warm to room temperature for at least 2 hours before using.
