What am I doing wrong? It doesn't work in my Cuisinart Keurig. It seems like I would be forcing the lid down and I'm too afraid to do it.

these are the same size as the K-cups, in the video clip it looks like she is rather forceful when she puts the lid down on the cusinart, I would try it a few different times, it should work

Check closely... if the Java Jig looks like it has a ridge about 1/4 inch from the top, you have two java jigs stuck together. Pull them apart and only use one. It should work quite well.

First thought: use a smaller cup. Second thought:use a more robust coffee (either K-Cup or single-serve screen and adapter). Third thought: call Keurig; see if they can help. Last resort: return for exchange. Good Luck.

You'll have to contact Cuisinart or look at your owners manual. I had to look at mine before ordering this one. Sorry I can't help you.

It sounds like the base, cup and lid aren't connected properly. If they aren't, it won't run. Make sure they are aligned properly, if it don't run, do it all over. I guess it is one of those safety features. Mine did that about a month ago, then I got it to work! Good luck, I sure hope I was able to help you. :)

I had the same problem. I was told that I needed to descale the keurig which I did. It did improve it slightly but i happened to have purchased my keurig from Costco and they just exchanged it for a new one no questions asked.

Just put a small amount of regular coffee filter in the cup. Make it so that it is a single layer and so that it doesn't interfere with the lid. That is what I do too and it works great! Doesn't seem to effect the coffee at all except to have less sediment in my cup!

All I know is our coffee started to come out slower and I tried to clean it and it helped a little, did you check in your manual ? Or go to the Hamilton Beach website and see if they have parts info. Our machine started to leak so we had to toss it out this was the third we had. We bought a Keurig and absolutely love it...

debugging anything involves working your way step by step thru the processI did not experience this but my inclination is to recheck the kcup - and how it is sitting in the coffee makeryou look to see if where the water enters is blocked because the kcup is not properly seated also look at what 'appears clogged' literally means - is water coming out some other way? or it just does nothing if kcup is in place? I did have trouble with water saturating the coffee - and this was reason I ultimately returned the product

I do know that if you have the silver handle pushed DOWN and then'/try to push the coffee pod in it will bend and possibly break the middle! You handle has to be up, place the pod in then......Push down the handle to start the making!?

Hum, not sure. I do the hole in the other end, but not sure that is the problem. You are putting the lid on, right? If so it might just be a defective unit.

Turn the mug around and put the top on. I've just tried it, it works both ways. good luck

Had the same problem, used a paper clip to unclog the part where the water come through (the metal pointy part that pokes the hole in the k-cup). Didn't have much success until I kept doing it and ran water through and then *as water sputtered through, I lifted the handle to make it stop, then put it right back down to resume.* each time coffee grounds came out little by little until POP the clog came out and water poured out. It's now working great!!!

I've had this happen on occasion. If some grounds get stuck in the lid opening, it blocks the coffee from entering. Just a bit of debris can make the little moving flap stick in the closed position. Rinse out the lid under running water and shake it to make sure you can hear the flap move. As I've noted before, this coffeemaker can be very temperamental because it has a number of little parts that, if even slightly blocked, can mess up the whole operation.

Keiko - Happy to help.Remove the lid with the plunger and put the ground coffee in the pot - I like it fairly strong so I use 2 level coffee measuring spoon fulls. Then add the hot water, stir and replace the lid. Do not push it down as yet, the plunger (round mesh part) sits just on top of the water for 3 - 4 minutes. Then you push it down. Your coffee is now ready. Hope this helps but feel free to ask any other question if necessary.mkm928

I have a Classic cuisinart, don't know if that's the same thing, but this part is made of thin plastic at the place where it clicks into the bottom piece and doesn't work well at all to hold that button down to make it run.

Hi, Peyton! That is precisely why I detest the coffee maker. I talked with Kitchen Aid; they are not willing to accept return of the product; they would send me some replacement part which is supposed to remedy the overflow problem. The overflow occurred whether I brewed 2, 6, 12 or any amount. I honestly don't see how the new part will correct the issue, but I'm going to try.

I have that same problem!!! I had descaled it, and 'cleaned' the machine parts with a paperclip (per instructions by rep on phone) and I still got short-cupped. I talked to the company a few days ago and complained, so they thought it could be a 'faulty k-cup holder' and they sent me a replacement. Well I put it in, and now my machine does NOT work at all! I called the company and they think the machine could be defective and are sending me out a new one. I hope THIS new one works!!!!
