Possible Causes

Stuck reservoir float, Internal leak returning water to reservoir, User misreading external markings, Faulty reservoir outlet valve

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Avoid opening the reservoir lid during active brewing to prevent steam burns.

  • Verify visually: After brewing completes and the unit cools, remove the reservoir and check the actual water level.
  • Check float: If your reservoir has a float indicator, ensure it moves freely when the reservoir is tilted.
  • Inspect outlet valve: Press the reservoir outlet valve (over a sink) to confirm water flows freely.
  • If level truly does not drop but coffee is brewed: There may be an internal bypass or misrouted tubing, which requires professional inspection.
