How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the brewer immediately and remove it from power. Do not operate a leaking appliance.

  • Inspect reservoir: Remove and fill the tank over a sink to check for cracks or leaks. Replace if leaking.
  • Check external connections: On plumbed models, inspect the inlet hose and fittings for drips.
  • Dry the unit: Wipe up any external water and allow the brewer to dry completely before further inspection.
  • Internal leak diagnosis (technician): The case must be opened to inspect tubing, clamps, and the heater tank. Replace any cracked hoses or leaking components.
  • Do not continue use until repaired: Water inside the unit can cause electrical shorts and fire risk.
