Possible Causes

Incorrect filter size, Very fine grind, Pouring water directly into filter, High brew pressure from clogging

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Wait for brewing to finish before opening the basket.

  • Use correct filters: Use the Braun‑recommended filter size and shape (e.g., #4 cone).
  • Rinse filter: Pre‑wet paper filters to help them adhere to the basket walls.
  • Adjust grind: Use a medium grind to prevent slow flow and filter collapse.
  • Clean basket: Ensure the outlet is not partially blocked, which can increase pressure.
