Thread: Keurig B70 Tank Issues...

oh okay...that seems logical. I thought you were hopped up on caffeine overload! haha

Well, sometimes it's empty when i wake up in the morning, so that's 1 refill right away. Also not all the water goes to coffee. I like to run 8oz through it without a K-Cup sometimes just to clean it, especially if i've brewed any sort of flavored K-Cup. Otherwise the smell will linger inside the K-Cup canister. The Fiance drinks an occasional cup or two as well. _________________ Current Gizmos: Keurig B70 Nespresso CitiZ...

I have a B77 and have not had a problem with an air lock. It is just much more convenient to refill the tank in place than going through the hassle of removing it to add water.

Odd (to me at least). What if you fill up the tank without removing it? _________________ Grindmaster OPOD Senseo 7810 (recalled) Keurig B40 Josh's Pod Guide Josh's K-cup Line-up

I never had a problem filling it in place. When you remove it you will leave space for air to get in the system. When that happens its like the first time you used it and had to wait for the air to purge. Its simpler to add water in place

This same thing happened to me yesterday with my B77. The water pump was trying to get the water out of the reservoir but couldn't seem to "grab" it. After a minute the machine turned itself off. This happened about 3 times until finally the water started pumping into the machine. Definitely sounds like a priming issue. My machine is only 2 weeks old so I doubt it is a scaling issue.
