Troubleshooting
Coffee overflowing.
• If coffee overflows from Removable Grounds Filter Basket after using
Hamilton Beach Brands-recommended amount of 1 tablespoon
(5 g) per a cup, check coffee manufacturer proportions. Consider
using less grounds for fine and coarse ground coffee in Removable
Grounds Filter Basket.
• If coffee grounds overflow paper filter, make sure correct grounds
proportions are used, or try a higher-quality paper filter.
• If using decaf or fine-grind coffee and overflow occurs, try using
(bold) brew strength for a slower brew rate.
• If overflow occurs, rinse out Removable Grounds Filter Basket, Coffee
Reservoir Lid, and Coffee Reservoir to clear grounds. Dry and reinstall
for next use.
• Coffee Maker will dispense coffee except when brewing. Trying to
dispense while brewing will cause overflow onto countertop.
Poor dispensing.
• Make sure Coffee Reservoir Lid is seated properly on Coffee
Reservoir.
• Make sure there are no coffee grounds between the seals, especially
in Coffee Reservoir Lid area.
• Seals should be room temperature or warmer. Do not place Coffee
Reservoir in refrigerator.
• Remove Stainless Steel Dispensing Straw and flush with warm
soapy water to clear any obstructions. Rinse, dry, and reinstall.
• Gurgling may occur when dispensing coffee and coffee level is low
in Coffee Reservoir.
