FOR THOSE THAT USED THE PAPERCLIP WITH NO RESULTS: Used the paper clip and it didn't work. I placed a straw over the object that punctures a hole in the coffee pod and blew air through the line- this don't work (btw, the water reservoir needs to be detached if you're going to blow water through the line). I then sucked on the straw once for about 5 seconds and extracted a large amount of water in that short time. Coffee maker works now!!! Water was not running through at all and this fixed the back up in the line. Just as a precaution, the water is extremely hot when you extract it from the machine via a straw you will get a mouthful of near boiling water.....
