If even a few grounds get around the paper filter the machine clogs and overflows onto the counter and possible the floor. This could also be a safety problem with children around who could get burned ! Would highly recommend not buying this coffee maker. I've had quite a few coffee makers and never had this problem.

As with any machine with a carafe, pre-heat the carafe with hot water to keep the coffee hotter for longer. 2. Regarding leaking: Remove the device that cuts off the coffee if you remove the carafe (on the bottom of the coffee basket). Coffee grounds can collect here and cause that problem. Also, screw off the top of the carafe lid, and remove coffee grounds from there. They jam the ball that shuts off the vent and causes the coffee to overflow. Otherwise a great machine! 2 comments:
