I have had this Keurig for about ten years. I can't tell you how many times I've had to bring it back to life after the cleaning procedure they recommend, so its amazing it still works, but that's a topic for another day. One item that clogs about twice a year is the water filter screen. This is the screw on part located at the bottom of the water reservoir and it contains a fairly fine metal screen to block particulates. The problem is that I always have to use a long handled Phillips screwdriver to remove the three screws and then use long needle nose pliers to bring out the screen assembly, then remove the screen and use something similar to a cleaning pad to remove the build up from the screen. Since this summer was unusually hot, the build up has occurred more often and I hate having to keep disassembling to get to the screen. Is there any simple way to clean it while leaving everything in place?
