Keurig Kcup F.A. Kuick Answers



Welcome to Keurig K-cup F.A. Kuick answers,  no fuss no muss just straight forward simple answers to your most frequently asked questions.

Up this week...Why am I getting coffee grinds in my cup?

In most cases if you are seeing coffee grinds in your mug after a Keurig brew it is simply a case of grinds being trapped in the brewing needle.  This tends to happen after a hot cocoa or Keurig tea has been brewed. The best way to prevent this issue is to always run a water only cycle after brewing a tea or hot cocoa. But,  if it is too late and you have not taken this preventative measure never fear, it is very simple to fix.  You need one very important tool:


Thats right,  you guessed it,  a paper clip straightened on one end.  Once you have your tool ready to go,  it is time to perform surgery.


Locate the the brewing pin on your Keurig brewer, it can be found in the top half of the brewing basket.  Push the straightened end of the paperclip into the needle and move it around to attempt to loosen any lodged grinds or debri. 

After clearing out the brew needle with the paperclip,  run 2-3 water only brew cycles.

Your Keurig brewer should now run free and clear of coffee grinds!
