What is the best way to descale my Keurig?

Asked a year ago
To descale your Keurig and ensure optimal performance, follow these steps. First, power off the machine and unplug it. Remove any remaining water from the reservoir. Mix a descaling solution with equal parts water and vinegar or use a commercial descaling product. Fill the reservoir halfway with the solution and the remaining half with water. Place a ceramic mug on the drip tray and start the brew cycle without a K-Cup. Allow the solution to dispense into the mug, then discard the liquid. Repeat this process until the "Add Water" indicator appears. Let the Keurig sit for 30 minutes with the power on, and then rinse the reservoir thoroughly. Finally, fill the reservoir with fresh water and run multiple brew cycles to ensure all the descaling solution is removed. This process helps maintain your Keurig's performance and prolong its lifespan.
