An espresso should take 25 seconds to dispense, long coffee takes longer unless you pour an espresso into 1/2 cup of hot water (or the other way round). It could be the grind is too fine hence extraction is proving difficult. Try making the grinder setting to more coarse. More info in link

Why is there coffee on the burner, after coffee brews?

The flow control valve on the strainer basket (where the coffee pours into the pot) is a less-than-stellar device. While adequate to prevent a flow of coffee when you pull out the pot, it will still retain a few drops which slowly drip onto the warming plate while you are pouring a cup. It may even allow a slow, continuous drip, especially if coffee grounds find their way past the filter.

Keep a damp cloth or paper towel near the coffeemaker while it is on. Just before returning the pot to the plate, give it a quick wipe.

Hot water will not come down thru coffee

Your pour over coffee brewer has a reservoir that holds more than a pot of water. First thing you need to do is turn off the machine. Then put the empty coffee pot on the burner. Then take another container and fill it with fresh cold water and pour it slowly into the coffee maker until it starts to come out into the coffee pot. Stop pouring in water.

Now turn the machine on and let it heat up. Now you can brew normally. The reservoir has to be filled before you turn it on or you will end up eventually burning up the heating element.

It leaks when you pour your coffee.

This is a common situation and is not difficult to resolve... When pouring, the coffee follows the spout when poured slowly but will have a tendency to follow the lid, up the sides, when poured fast. The easiest way to pour without this problem is to slightly raise the lid while pouring; this allows the coffee to go in the general pouring direction without spills. Give it a try, it is an easily adopted habit to get into and can be done with just one hand.

Carafe dribbles coffee no matter what you do. Pour fast, pour slow, dry the outside etc. Can't believe they can't make a pour spout that doesn't dribble. Any suggestions?

I often ask why we can put a man on the moon, but not make a coffee maker that doesn't dribble when I pour. I have the same trouble, and what I have found works for me is to be very careful that I am pouring with the spout dead center, and pouring fairly slowly. A little off to the side of the spout, and I'm cleaning the floor. But if I pour so the flow is right through the center, it works for me.

Good luck. And if you design the perfect carafe before I do, let me know. I'll buy one!

Blade turns slowly and will not grind.

1. This fixes almost all the "beans will not feed or beans will not grind" problems unless you need a factory part for repair.
a. Pour all the beans out the top.
b. Open the settings up all the way and see what else can be poured out. Use your shop vacuum to **** grounds out the spout and backward out the bean bin.
c. Pour in some instant rice and start grinding. Reduce the grind to a small setting like six and then open the settings all the way again. (The grinder will not start at a low setting with the rice in it. If you let it stop, open the settings to about 16 before trying to restart.)
d. Pour out the rice and vacuum out the ground rice.
e. Adjust the grinder to your favorite setting and try a coffee grind.

Mr Coffee stopped brewing

Sounds like there are a couple of problems -

First, are you certain that the coffee basket is clean? If the coffee basket has a valve on the bottom that allows you to remove the carafe to pour a cup of coffee, make sure the valve is clean. Being dirty would cause it to trickle coffee slowly into the carafe, and will hold coffee in the basket too long.

2nd, you may need to flush the water heating system as they can become corroded with precipitated solids from the water.
To do this, mix 1 part vinegar to 2 parts water in the carafe. Pour into the coffee maker and tell it to make coffee. Do this a couple of times, using a fresh mix of vinegar and water each time. Pour the used mixture down the drain.
When you feel it is clean, follow it up with a fresh pot of water. Then wash and rinse the carafe.

The coffee maker is now ready for it's next use.
