The coffeemaker continues to drip long after the
brewing process has ended.
• The dripping is caused by condensation
of steam. It is completely normal that the
coffeemaker drips for some time.
• If the dripping does not stop, the drip stop may
be clogged. To clean the drip stop, pull at the
tab of the lter basket holder on the right side
of the coffeemaker to open the holder. Take out
the lter basket. Then rinse the lter 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 lter basket to overow.
The coffee is not hot enough.
• 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 coffeemaker. See section ‘Descaling
the coffeemaker’ in chapter ‘Cleaning and
maintenance’.
The coffeemaker does not start cleaning the
grinder funnel.
• Make sure that the coffeemaker is connected to
the mains.
• Make sure that you open the lid of the grinder
funnel before you press and hold the grinder
button.
• Press and hold the grinder button for 4 seconds
until the grinder starts cleaning itself.
• The appliance is steaming and it takes longer to
brew coffee.
• Descale the appliance. See section ‘Descaling
the coffeemaker’ in chapter ‘Cleaning and
maintenance’.
• The coffee beans seem to be used up quickly.
• It may look as if the coffee beans are used up
quickly. To ensure a perfect cup of coffee, a
certain amount of ground coffee is required.
The amount of coffee beans the appliance uses
to get the perfect amount of ground coffee is
normal.
