Why do I get a cup full of coffee grounds every time I try to use the K2V?

Make sure you press down firmly until you here a pop ensuring the cup is punctured.

Your using the outer cup as well as the screen? Sure its a vue? Works great for mine.

I really do not know, I bought this product at Amazon hoping to be able to use my own coffee but I feel the coffee maker seems to work much better with the original K*CUPS.

You need to fully seat the K cup into the adapter before putting the adapter into the machine. but first you will need to clean the brewer to get the grounds out of it or you will keep getting grounds!

Are you sure it's not your Keurig? Mine died recently ... and that's what it was doing beforehand. You might run your machine thru a cycle with nothing (no Java Jig) to see if the water is coming out normally. If that's not it ... you might be using too much coffee or too fine a grind. I always left 1/4 inch or so space above the coffee when I filled mine. I also use a regular drip grind. When my Keruig was working, the Java Jig worked best of all the refillable cups I tried.

I had this issue as well. I emailed customer service at Krups and they said "The settings are fine to coarse, left to right." I decided to see for myself and ground coffee at each of the extremes. Frankly they don't look that different, maybe the right-most setting seems more coarse, but it's not obvious. I'm wondering if my machine isn't working correctly.

yes. Using the k cups in the adaptor clogged the machine. I love my machine, so we went back to the vue cups after doing a vinegar clean out. twice.

Sorry can't help with this one. I only used it once and it left coffee grounds all over the place so I just trashed them.

I am not sure of this problem - as I only purchased it to use K-Cups vs. Vue Cups. Although I have the insert with it for ground coffee- I was not planning on doing so as it seemed too labor intensive to use and clean after- which defeats the goal of the quick 1cup machine.

I've had that happen also. Sometimes the grind of the coffee isn't fine enough. Sometimes I don't have the filter holder screwed in tight enough. I also make sure the printed side of the filter is facing up as per the directions.Sometimes the evil morning coffee gnome is at work!!! Good luck!

No it uses a different pod that looks like two filters glued together . Th k cuP is a plastic container.

i have had this happen,its because it didnt get a proper hole punched in the bottom or the top of the k cup,just redo and you should be good to go,,some brand of the k cups are a little diff

I don't but some of the fine grounds get into the coffee. For me I don't mind, I have tried using paper filters and the cost just made me consider buying a prefilled k-cup. I hope this helps!

Hmmm - never had that problem with Melitta. I've tried a number of different brand reusable k-cups and Melitta is by far my favorite - I even use the Simplicity paper filters with them...could you be overfilling the K-cup so that the lid is not closed tightly? Sounds like the piercing spike of your Keurig is not hitting the opening on the lid precisely. Do you clean your spike regularly - maybe it has some buildup...

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.

it looks that you overfilled the the cup with ground coffee,try to have at least 3 mm clearance from the coffee grounds to the edge of the cup

Are you using a reusable k-cup? I haven't had that happen with the disposable ones. If the top of the reusable k-cup isn't fully closed (such as if there are coffee grounds along the top rim), then I have had that happen.

Hi Anne, to be honest with you I really don't know? I am using thes K cups with great success on my Keurig K45!
