Toastmaster TCM10 Coffee Maker Questions & Answers
How do you open the basket
It is very difficult. It detaches on the left and then you have to work it in or off on the right. I'm not even sure I have it down pat.
I just broke the glass
Carafes are available at hardware stores and cook's supply stores. To get you by till then (providing your coffee maker doesn't have a 'sneak-a-brew' stopper at the bottom of the filter cone) you can use a small saucepan and reduce the recipe, (water and coffee).
Toastmaster Coffee Maker, Model No. TCM12PW, made noise & smoked
Well I can tell you that your heating element and the connection that plugs into your electrical cord certainly shorted out. After going through some consumer reviews that particular model is not too well spoken of and has caused considerable problems from spill overs, leaking internally (not good for electrical connections) and operation as a whole. There are several forums that you can read actual customer comments such as your own. For the price of what that one costs at a discount I do not know whether your best solution is to get it fixed. Since it is relatively new I would get on the internet and google coffeemakers in general and you will get a good idea for a more reliable and safer replacement.
