20 Most Recent Hamilton Beach GE 42-Cup Coffee Urn Coffee Maker, Model No. 106840 Questions & Answers

Hello, My name is Mike. Large coffee makers of this kind have a basket.There is no need for a filter. Now, there are filters you can buy that would work for this size if you felt for some reason you have to have one.For example you can buy large Bunn filters, and just pinch a hole in the middle and put it over tube and now you have a filter. Now, personally me being a expert on espresso machines as well as owning a coffee company myself. I would not use any filter, as this machine is designed not to have one. If you do use one, problem is, with that type of volume of making a pot, will make your coffee weak and inconsistent.places to buy a large filter for the machine to make it work is wall mart, k-mart- sears-and for business is united grocers, other wise known as cash and carry. I hope this helps, Mike the Bean Man.

I just called the company and ordered the lid for 10 dollars and change. they will also send me a manual so I would thing you could get a cord too

3.5 to 4 rounded scoops. I own a coffee company as well. It also depends on coffee brand and how strong you like it.

try a mixture of clear vinegar with water. use a soft cloth

if you can get hold of some plumbers ptfe tape then that might fix the problem, dissasemble the spigot and wrap the tape round the stripped threads, then do up tight. a heavy duty filler such as chemical metal would do the trick too.
if you cant get hold of these bits then there is a temporaary fix that might work, dissasemble the spigot and coat the threads with loads of egg white, put it back together and heat it up until the egg cooks, with a bit of luck it will expand enough to seal the joint (this can work on leaking car radiators too).
good luck

I am sure that all it needs is to be cleaned. Gently take it apart, clean the parts, use a soft brush if needed and put it back together. Should solve your problem.

I just called the company and ordered a new lid and a manual . It cost a little over ten dollars.

It uses the exact same cord as the Presto fry daddy.
