How To Clean Keurig Needle: Easy Maintenance For 2.0 & Other Models
When you brew a K-cup, there are needles inside your coffee maker that make holes at the top and bottom of the pod. This allows hot water to pass through the capsule and make its way to your cup. The ground coffee in the pods can get stuck around the needle. If left there, they will eventually become dry and hard. This is especially likely to happen if you don’t discard your pods soon after brewing. Keep reading to learn how to clean each Keurig needle to remove this buildup.

If your coffee starts to taste bitter, it is probably because old brewed coffee grounds are falling from the needle into your cup of coffee. You may even be able to see them in your coffee mug.
Another sign that you needle to clean the needles is that your Keurig starts to take longer to brew, doesn’t make a full cup, or only drips slowly. The build up of coffee grounds in the needle will increase the time it takes for the filtered water to move through your brewer.
Keurig 2.0 machines will display needle maintenance messages when cleaning is needed, including the water under pressure error.
For other Keurig models you can use the paper clip method. To do so follow these steps, while using caution around the sharp needles.
The easiest way to do Keurig 2.0 needle maintenance on a regular basis is with the orange Keurig needle cleaner. Most models will come with one. However, if you lost yours you can buy a new one for just a few dollars.
