Machine dispenses too much water; cup overflows compared to normal volume.

Possible Causes
Flow meter miscalibration, sticky flow meter wheel, control PCB volume setting changed, user‑programmable volume set too high
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Keep the area dry to avoid slipping or electrical hazards from spills.
- Reset volume (if supported): Many Senseo models allow reprogramming cup volume by holding the brew button while the desired amount is dispensed, then releasing to save.
- Descale: Run a descaling cycle to ensure the flow meter spins freely and reports correctly.
- Rinse cycles: Run several water‑only cycles to stabilize the flow measurement.
- Service if persistent: If volumes remain erratic, the flow meter or control PCB may need replacement.
