PROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
• Coffeemaker 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).
• 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.
• Make sure you have allowed for the 2 minutes of cool-down time.
• Check for water in water reservoir. If there is no water in the reservoir and the brew button is
pushed, the unit will not brew.
• 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.
• To prevent coffee overflowing from a mug/travel mug, use the same mug/travel mug to brew
into that was used to fill the water reservoir. Do not add more than 10 ounces (296 ml) of
water.
• Added too much water. Remove single-serve pack and replace brew basket. Repeat brewing
cycle.
• Reduce amount of water in reservoir.
• Brew a different type of single-serve pack.
