We have this Kerig and was giving us great coffee, but now the coffee comes out burnt and bitter tasting. Took the whole thing apart to clean it; ran  vinegar thru it one time then 2 full tank  cycles of hot water to clear out the vinegar, then tried bottle water instead of the tap water and stll awful coffee. K cups are not weird ones so now what??  Geez, we've had this machine for 3 years maybe!!!

Re: NEED HELP ABOUT KERIG 2.0

It is possible to coffee pods are old, I have found that if the pods are not fresh the coffee can taste off

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

Re: NEED HELP ABOUT KERIG 2.0

Hi Wagirl!!  It truly may be the pods.  I got such a bad batch of Dunkin Donuts k cups that I actually had to throw them out.  It was horrible, cloudy weak, awful tasting.  It was so bad, I won't buy that brand anymore as I had a bag of it that wasn't very good either.

 

Stay warm, I am and you know why!!!

thanks for the info everyone--it's hard for me to understand about  the coffee pods as I don't drink coffee, however when DD uses her fav pod at her job, it tastes just fine but not here at home. They have the same kind machine  we do---so mysterious!!!
