For your next coffee machine, may I suggest a filter and a filter holder? No, seriously. It takes as much time to prepare coffee with this than with a Keurig, it's cheaper than a Keurig, the coffee tastes better, there are much more varieties than with a Keurig, it's waaaay easier to wash (it goes entirely in the dishwasher) and the environment will be so happy it will give you a big smooch of health.

Nothing like a fresh cup of mold coffee to wake you up. Now in Black mold flavor! :D

Now you know how the environment feels being suffocated with non-recyclable plastic and foil cups.

The exact same reason why I got rid of my Keurig, afraid of a mold infestation. And cleaning it with vinegar does not work. Your coffee tastes like Summers Eve for weeks

I recommend cleaning it with vinegar every week or two to help prevent mold build up

Damn never considered the mold, gonna throw mine out if I find any!!

You have to wash out the water reservoir at least twice a week...and let it air dry. It get's nasty if left unwashed. Also, use distilled water to prevent unhealthy bacteria. It won't hurt you! Good luck!

Unlikely, the heat from the water would likely kill anything that could make you sick. But it's still gross. Get a Chemex and you'll see everything. And it's cheaper and better.

yep Keurigs are a health hazard. A more traditional coffee maker or a French press makes more sense.

Seriously Keurig makes coffee maker cleaner, specially formulated to run through the machine via the water tank..... you can purchase on their web site and Kohls.
