I Was Ready To Trash My $80 Keurig After 3 Weeks, But A $4 Descaler Kit From Walmart Fixed It
My Keurig started pumping out cold, weak coffee about a month after I bought it, and I was this close to chucking it in the dumpster behind my apartment in Dallas. I tried everything I could think of: rinsing the tank, running plain water cycles, even poking a paperclip into the needle thing. Nothing worked, and I was already looking at $80 down the drain. Then my neighbor, who fixes appliances on the side, told me to grab a $4 bottle of white vinegar and a $3 descaler kit from Walmart. I ran a 1:1 mix of vinegar and water through it three times, let it sit for 30 minutes, then flushed it with clean water. That was two months ago and it's been brewing hot and strong ever since, no weird taste. Has anyone else had a similar fix with a small appliance, or is it just luck that mine came back to life?
