Possible Causes
Too large cup size for pod strength, Fast flow due to low resistance, Reusable pod ground too coarse, Internal bypass valve stuck open
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Use caution with hot liquids.
- Adjust cup size: Select a smaller brew size for stronger coffee.
- Use strong/bold mode: Enable strong mode if available to slow flow and increase extraction.
- Check reusable pod: Use finer grounds and fill to the recommended level without packing too tightly.
- Descale: Remove scale that can alter flow characteristics.
- Persistent weak coffee with all pods: An internal bypass or mixing valve may be stuck and require technician service.
