Tips for great tasting coffee
•
A clean coffee maker is essential for great coffee. Regularly clean your
coffee maker as specified in “Cleaning and maintaining your coffee
maker” on page 8.
•
Always use fresh, cold water.
•
Store unused coffee in a cool, dry place. After opening, reseal the coffee
tightly and store it in a refrigerator to maintain freshness.
•
For optimum coffee taste, buy whole coffee beans and finely grind them
just before brewing.
•
Do not reuse coffee grounds and do not reheat brewed coffee.
•
Clean the coffee maker when over-extraction causes oiliness (small
droplets of oil on the surface of brewed, black coffee). This may occur
more frequently when you use dark, heavily roasted coffees.
Troubleshooting
Caution
Do not try to repair your coffee maker yourself. Doing so
invalidates the warranty.
Problem
Possible cause/solution
Why is my coffee maker leaking?
• Make sure the filter is properly positioned in the funnel holder and that
the water tank cover is fully closed.
• Avoid overfilling the water tank.
• If you have checked all of these items and the coffee maker is still leaking,
contact our service center.
Why does my coffee maker brew slower than
it used to?
Your coffee maker may require cleaning to remove mineral deposits that build
up over time. This is normal.
Why would my coffee maker overflow?
• If the carafe is removed for more than 30 seconds while the coffee maker
is brewing it may cause it to overflow. Make sure that the carafe is
replaced promptly after removing.
• The carafe may not have been properly positioned under the funnel. Be
sure the carafe is centered directly under the funnel.
• Using too much coffee may cause the coffee maker to overflow.
• The filter may have become folded over. Make sure that the filter is
properly centered in the funnel. Try wetting the edges to prevent filter
collapse.
• Using coffee that is too finely ground can sometimes result in overflow.
Use only coffee that is ground for automatic drip coffeemakers.
Why isn't my coffee maker brewing coffee?
• Make sure that your coffee maker is plugged into a working 120V
electrical outlet.
• Make sure that the power switch is turned on.
• Make sure that the water tank has water in it.
• The coffee maker may require cleaning to remove mineral deposits that
build up over time.
