It sounds like your power is off. all should be fine when it is restored.

Hello, I think I can help you out here. It appears your problem based on the symptoms you described is it needs to be primed. The humming your hearing is the water not sucking up through the pump, as it is a vapor lock. Here is what you do to fix this. Once it is fixed, the humming will still be there some, but then water will be flowing. Again, they hum your hearing is pump running , in this case trying to run and pump water. Try this below for the fix. The pumps on these machines are not real good pressure. Sometimes you have to help it prime for the pump to work. So one very good way to solve the problem is to turn the machine on and lift the water reservoir up just a couple of inches and then jam it back in place fast and hard. With this way is like it injects just enough pressure into the system to open the check valve and when the motor pump will run you will realize that immediately water will passing through from reservoir to brewer tank. This procedure has to be done often between cups.From what we seen in internet their hundreds about the same problem but we have not see any serious response about it From Keurings customer service yet.One other important and related problem frequently reported is the irregulars doses of coffee like HALF-FILLED CUPS of coffee e.t.aThis must be redesign from Keuring factory since there is not much we can do about it to solve once for all even if they will replace your machine with a new one you will have the same problem in few weeks. And definitely this not a problem due your Electricity in your area or due to hard water. However hard water areas will face bigger and more intensive the above problem so one more suggestion is to decaling the machine every week this will help a lot. If you find the above helpful please remember to vote for it Thanks Mike

You have to wait for it to go through the reheat cycle. If it is not going through that contact Keurig and they will walk you through some test steps to see if it is malfunctioning.

No.... the.MINI Plus Brewing System units are the coffee makers that are being recalled.

Unplug the unit and let it stand overnight then try it again in the morning

Hi,

There is air in the lines and it is blocking the water flow...

Keurig CoffeeBrewer will not prime

The filter assembly is several inches tall, with a basket-like holder for the cartridge at its base. The unit snaps in place over the outlet in the base of the water reservoir. Lift and remove the cover of the water reservoir, which is located on the left side of the coffee maker. Turn the filter unit's round replacement date dial to two months in the future. This offers a reminder of when it's time to check and replace the filter. Open the cage at the bottom of the filter assembly. Insert the soaked and rinsed filter cartridge, and then snap the cage closed. Position the filter assembly directly over the water outlet in the base of the reservoir. Push the unit down slightly until the assembly locks into place. You should feel it click into position.

Turn off and unplug the Keurig brewer. Remove the water reservoir from the machine, empty it into the sink and place aside. Move the machine to the side of the sink with the back hanging over the sink. Locate the drain cap on the back of the machine, and remove the drain cap. Empty the water into the sink. Do not tilt the machine more than 90 degrees while emptying to make sure all water drains. Replace the drain cap. Place the machine back on your counter or in storage if you do not plan to use it.

This is actually a power-saving feature. Keurig actually recommends you let it shut off on its own instead of powering on and off.

Run white vinigar through it.

could be on wrong cup size settings

Go through menu you may have the auto off enabled.

The brewer should be de-scaled at least every 3-6 months. Scale is harmless, but if left unattended, it can hinder optimal brewer performance. De-scaling your brewer regularly helps maintain the heating element, removable water reservoir and other parts of the brewer that come in contact with water. Better water quality and water heating means a better cup of coffee, tea, hot cocoa or iced beverage. We recommend de-scaling your brewer at least every 6 months (every 3 months if your water has a high mineral content). The de-scaling process involves using 48 ounces of undiluted white vinegar.

Take 48 oz of white vinegar. place in tank. pretend you are making coffee (Do No Use K Cup). let the water fill you mug. then empty that mug. Do it again until tank is empty. then let sit for 4 hours.
Then fill with fresh water to the top. let that tank of water run thru. towards the end taste the water.
If you taste vinegar..use more clean water, until the taste is ok.

I tried to help you. Please help me and Vote/Rate this response. Thanks and good luck

There is a major design defect with all the newer Keurigs, including the B60 and the B70/B77. My understanding is that Keurig has redesigned the pump mechanism that extracts water from the reservoir and into the brewer (there's a second pump that forces the hot water through the K-cup, and it's not involved). They are now using a small DC motor and impeller pump, which is much quieter (to address complaints in many reviews) but the new design just doesn't work.

It appears that air gets into the system, and the new pump isn't strong enough to "self-prime" in this case. So the pump motor runs and runs without water going through it, and eventually turns itself off so it doesn't burn out (it should usually take only a few seconds to fill the internal tank). Many people think the problem centers around the 'check valve' in the base of the unit, just below where the clear reservoir seats itself: Theory is that the tiny pump can't pull hard enough to open the check valve to let water flow, especially when there's any air in the system.

I've had two B77 units already myself, and both have failed this way within only a few weeks. FWIW, the workaround I discovered is to turn the unit on, and lift up the water-filled reservoir about 1-2" as if you're removing it. Then jam it back down into place, hard and fast. Doing this injects just enough pressure into the system to open the check valve, and if the pump motor is running, you'll hear (and see) it immediately start transferring water from the reservoir to the chamber. You'll often have to do this between each cup you brew, and again when you first turn on the system.

There are hundreds of similar reports all over the Internet about this issue, and apparently no real solutions from Keurig yet (I don't even know if they're acknowledging the problem). Other symptoms include brewing half-filled cups of coffee, as others on this forum have reported.

I suggest everyone call Keurig's customer service and file complaints about this until they come up with a fix. Don't let them tell you it's a problem with your AC power or your hard water (they'll try excuses like tthose first). And until they redesign this, there's not much point in having them ship you a refurbished replacement for your brand-new machine, because chances are it will quickly fail just like your old one.
