Have just used my Keurig B70 coffee maker for one month. I have the
same one at work and when I pick the larges coffee size, I get that at
work, but when I pick it at my coffeemaker at home it does not fill
up the same. I have read the instructions about cleaning out that little
filter thing and I have descaled it twice following the instructions using
the vinegar and it still does not give me a full cup. I had read previous
complaints on this but never thought that when I got my own that it
would do this. What do I do now. It hasn't filled correctly since I
started using it???

I had the same problem, contacted Keurig and they suggested the descale procedure, which did nothing. The brew size was very small, the display would not let me select the size, and water was being pushed back into the reservoir. I was able to resolve the problem however.
First I went through a gallon of white vinegar, without results. Then I did the following:
Went to Walmart and bought "Brew Rite". Tried 8 cup mixture (8 cups of water, two tablespoons of mix), did not work. Being persistant, put in another 8 cups, and when the reservoir was empty of the solution let sit 2 hours while unplugged and then put in clear water. By the time I got half way through with the clear water, the device started working properly, no problems since. This may work for you...

1. Power off machine. 2. Using a metal paperclip, insert it into left side of top needle. It must insert at least 1" deep. Insert it into slot on right side and again from back of needle. 3. Remove KCup cradle. Separate bottom from top. In the top section, insert the paperclip up into bottom needle from the bottom upwards. It will not go all the way thru and this is normal. 4. Reassemble KCup cradle and reinsert it back into coffee maker. 5. Power on machine. 6. Brew a cup of water only. There may be coffee grounds in the water and these should eventually clear during the remaining steps. NOTE: A large cup brew cycle should output a full 8 ounces (235cc). Less means there is still a blockage
SOURCE: Keurig starts & stops without brewing coffee, just descaled
The pic is clogged with coffee or the air bladder is bad. Use the tool on the underside of the tray to clean out pic. If that doesn't work, the bladder will be bad.
SOURCE: Keurig only brews about 2-3 oz. of coffee.
Doesn't sound like a descaler issue. I am having problems with mine and noticed that water is flowing back into the reservoir when it is pouring into the coffee cup. I think there is a valve that is not closing properly.
