Troubleshooting Tips
PROBLEM
PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Coffee tastes bad.
Coffee maker needs cleaning.
Coffee ground too coarsely or too finely. Set coffee grinder to automatic drip grind.
Poor coffee quality and freshness.
Poor water quality (use filtered or bottled water).
Water on counter under unit.
Overfilled water reservoir. Also check cup used to fill reservoir. Some mugs/cups do not pour cleanly and can dribble water down the side of the cup and onto counter.
Coffee maker will not brew.
Make sure you have allowed for the 2 minutes of cool-down time.
If the BREW button has been pressed with no water in the reservoir, wait until the brew light turns off before adding water to the reservoir.
Coffee overflows from brew basket.
Use removable holder for ground coffee.
Use a lesser amount of ground coffee.
When using whole bean coffee, a standard automatic drip coffee grind will yield best results. Be careful not to overgrind, since very finely ground coffee can cause overflow in this unit.
Coffee overflows from mug.
To prevent coffee overflowing from a mug, use the same mug to brew into that was used to fill the water reservoir. Do not add more than 14 ounces (414 ml) of water.
Water remaining in reservoir.
Added too much water. Remove singleserve pack and replace brew basket. Repeat brewing cycle.
Noise or steam at the end of brew cycle.
Reduce amount of water in reservoir.
Brew a different type of single-serve pack.
Coffee not dispensing
Piercing nozzle is clogged with coffee grounds. Turn unit off; unplug. Allow unit to cool completely. To remove any built-up coffee grounds, insert end of bent paper clip into eye of piercing nozzle.
Water reservoir fills too slowly.
Unit hasn’t cooled down. Allow 2 minutes between brewing cycles.
Try filling water reservoir before pushing down brew basket handle to pierce single-serve pack. Start brewing cycle.
Failed foil seal.
There is variability in the single-serve pack manufacturing process which causes some types of single-serve packs to be weaker at the seams. Let cool 2 minutes between brewing, use less water, or try a different brand.
Short brew cycle.
Single-serve pack is difficult to brew due to the coffee and its processing.
Try a different brand of single-serve pack.
