Coffee maker turns off mid-brew and does not complete the brewing cycle.

Safety first: Unplug and allow the unit to cool before inspection.

Simple checks:

• Confirm the auto-shutoff timer is not set to an unusually short duration.
• Ensure the coffee maker is on a stable, ventilated surface and not enclosed, which can trap heat.

Internal inspection:

• Remove the bottom cover and inspect the power cord strain relief and internal connections for looseness or charring.
• Check the warming plate thermostat for signs of overheating or poor contact with the plate.
• Run a descale cycle to reduce scale in the heating tube, which can cause hot spots and premature thermostat opening.

Control board:

• If the unit loses all power mid-brew and then comes back after cooling, the control relay or triac may be overheating.
• Inspect the control PCB for cracked solder joints at the relay or power components; resolder or replace the board as needed.

When to replace:

• Replace a weak or erratic warming plate thermostat if it opens too early.
• Replace the main control PCB if relay failure is suspected.
