The filter overflows when I remove the jug from
the appliance while it is brewing coffee.
• if you remove the jug for more than 20 seconds
during the brewing process, the drip stop
causes the filter basket to overflow. Also
note that the coffee does not reach its full
taste before the end of the brewing process.
Therefore we advise you not to remove the jug
and pour out the coffee before the end of the
brewing process.
The appliance continues to drip long after the
brewing process has ended.
• The dripping is caused by condensation
of steam. it is completely normal that the
appliance drips for some time.
• if the dripping does not stop, the drip stop may
be clogged. To clean the drip stop, press the
OPEN button on the right-hand side of the
appliance to open the filter basket holder. Take
out the filter basket. Then rinse the filter basket
and the drip stop under the tap.
• if you remove the jug for more than 20 seconds
during the brewing process, the drip stop
causes the filter basket to overflow.
The coffee is not hot enough.
• Make sure the jug is placed properly on
the hotplate.
• Make sure that the hotplate and the bottom
of the jug are clean.
• Use thin-walled cups, because they absorb less
heat from the coffee than thick-walled cups.
• Do not use milk that comes directly out
of the fridge.
• Descale the appliance. See section ‘Descaling’
in chapter ‘Cleaning and maintenance’.
