Coffee maker starts but stops brewing mid-cycle and shuts off.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Overheat protection tripping due to scale, Faulty thermal cutoff, Intermittent power connection, Control board sensing false completion

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

Descale the system:
- Run a full descaling cycle with vinegar and water to remove scale that can cause overheating.
Check power stability:
- Plug directly into a wall outlet (no extension cord).
- Avoid outlets controlled by wall switches.
Test with water only:
- Run a cycle with just water to see if it still stops early.

If the problem persists, the thermal cutoff or control board may be failing and should be inspected by a technician.
