Maintenance
Regular cleaning and maintenance ensure optimal performance and longevity of your Keurig K-Mini Go.
Cleaning the Exterior
Wipe the exterior of the brewer with a damp, non-abrasive cloth. Do not immerse the brewer in water or other liquids.
Cleaning the Drip Tray
The drip tray can accumulate coffee spills. Remove the drip tray and wash it with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. The drip tray is not dishwasher safe.
Descaling
Over time, calcium deposits (scale) can build up in your brewer, affecting performance. The 'DESCALE' indicator light will illuminate when descaling is recommended. Follow these general steps for descaling:
- Empty the water reservoir.
- Pour a full bottle of Keurig Descaling Solution into the water reservoir.
- Place a large mug on the drip tray.
- Perform a cleansing brew without a K-Cup pod. Repeat until the reservoir is empty.
- Rinse the reservoir thoroughly and fill with fresh water.
- Perform several fresh water cleansing brews until the descaling solution is completely flushed out.
Refer to the official Keurig website or contact customer support for detailed descaling instructions specific to your model.
