To remove any calcium buildups from the water mainly. I thought I remembered reading there was a certain solution that should be used for that.

Here is what I have used, all is well. I use Brita water and then a packet of these every 4-6 months.

Well my Platinum started acting up over the last couple days.

Brewing half-cups and then shutting off when it starts to pump (maybe 3/5 times). I called Keurig and they are sending me a whole new unit and a couple boxes for my trouble. The bummer is due to low stock of the Platinum it is going to take 2 weeks to get it.

I'll keep limping along and if it gets bad enough I'll have to bring home my Mini from work.

Overall still very impressed with this company, their products and customer service.

Just in time for the K-Cup pass too.

I've been very impressed with Keurig's response to the issues lately...seems they send new units with no questions asked.

I got my replacement last week. There is a definite difference, the pump sounds really strong in the this one and it sucks up the water a LOT faster. Hopefully it will hold up.

I noticed that with our new one as well. Definitely louder. LOL

I went to order the ice tea cups and Keurig were out of them. Has anyone tried them yet?

And now the replacement is short brewing.

Guess I'm calling in again...

Replacement number 2 on the way.

Bummer that they keep crapping out but they do stand behind their products which is refreshing.
