Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow hot parts to cool before cleaning.
Steps:
- Clean drip stop: Remove and rinse the filter basket and drip stop valve thoroughly to ensure smooth movement and sealing.
- Check coffee grind: Use a slightly coarser grind to prevent overfilling and slow draining.
- Clean brew head: Wipe the underside of the brew head and any gasket surfaces to remove coffee residue.
- Replace worn parts: If the drip stop or gasket is visibly worn or deformed, replace the affected parts.
