I Killed a Keurig Today


I destroyed my coffee maker today. Not intentionally. It had been on the blink for a while. Spitting coffee, adding grounds to the brew, and overall acting weird. It was well-maintained and used constantly for coffee, tea and cocoa. The poor tea kettle sits, unused, inches away.

It was four years old, and my last attempt to get a quality cup of coffee consisted of doing a de-scale, and then trying to clean the pod holder by rinsing it with spray bottle. When that was not enough, I tried a  gentle steam of water. . Sadly that was not smart move, as excess water escaped the area and seeped into the LED panel. Shot, gone, bye-bye.

I had the Cuisinart SS-10P1 Premium Single-Serve Coffeemaker Coffeemaker, with a 72 ounce capacity, in silver. Purchased originally in 2018 at Bed, Bath an Beyond. It was my second K-cup maker. The first died on it's own and the store gladly exchanged it. The return policy is no longer as kind, so I grabbed my old drip pot, and headed out to get ground coffee.

Then, I went online. hoping to pick it up this afternoon, and found, like everything else, the supply is limited for this machine. So off to Amazon.com where I ordered it, with hopes to be using my new machine by mid-week; down the road when this one starts spitting, I'll call customer service for cleaning tips.
