You have to make sure to hold the pot so the coffee comes out exactly in the middle of the spout. Mine takes forever to brew.

Not sure if you're asking question, or if you're just making a statement. But the carafe was so cloudy, and the sides of the unit got so hot, that it went right back to the store. We didn't even take the time to continue using it to give any other feedback. It was so hot, it could have burned someone.

we only used ours for a couple weeks. I thought I could taste plastic. Ended up odering a percolator coffee pot and we love it

I have not had this happen with my coffee pot. I have the DeLonghi 12 cup coffee maker.

do you mean that the system percolates very slowly, or that the actual pot pours slowly. If the pot itself leaks it could be that the seal between the plastic and the glass is not good. If the seal is bad and the unit is within warranty you should be able to get it replace3d at no charge.

I have the 12 cup which is very good and have not had an issue with drip or leaking. However, I have now problems with the swing arm making a lot of noise as it was going to crack. I do not intend to get another one if this breaks. Otherwise, it makes very good coffee as I have the better brew option of the additional" aroma" button.

I have the 12 cup brewer and love it. It is my second one as my previous one quit working after many years of service. I love the 'aroma' button as it brews coffee better. As for pouring out of the glass pot, if I pour water into the water channel too quickly, it will over pour and spill - must pour slowly and through the center of the spout, as with any coffee pot. I don't have spills pouring coffee unless I am in a hurry and pour quickly. Hope this answers your concerns. Would I purchase this pot again! Most definitely as I feel it is better than any other one out there.

Although I have the 12-cup, if my glass carafe leaked I would return it for replacement. You may be using too much coffee grounds or overfilling the water channel...in this machine, you do not put water directly on grounds! Also, if you have an "aroma" button and press it, the coffee will brew much slower.

Only solution I've found is don't fill all the way to the top which effectively makes it a 10.5 cup coffee maker. Otherwise just make sure lid is attached correctly

Since that has never been a problem for me, I would have to watch how you pour the coffee. Maybe the pot is too close to the cup. It only spills when I am filling the canister and that is because I am holding the pot too close to it and am in a hurry, so just wipe up the water when done. I love this coffee pot and never want a different kind.

Hi, Peyton! That is precisely why I detest the coffee maker. I talked with Kitchen Aid; they are not willing to accept return of the product; they would send me some replacement part which is supposed to remedy the overflow problem. The overflow occurred whether I brewed 2, 6, 12 or any amount. I honestly don't see how the new part will correct the issue, but I'm going to try.

I set mine almost at coarse, as I use a drip coffeemaker, and it seems coarse enough. Maybe contact the Saeco company?

Besides being poorly designed, it may be clogged with grounds. Mine would dispense slowly and that was the cause.

I hated that coffee maker! Threw it in the trash. Tried everything to keep it from overflowing but nothing worked. Sorry

no fix.. paper towel under it .. my dauhter has the same coffee maker and its also leaks it does not leak from the top and the water level is fine.. when the coffee is done I have a puddle under the machine on the left hand side

In my experience, water leaks out because the reservoir won't easily seat into the well. My experience was more 2 cups into the coffee pot and 10 onto the counter, but it may be the same problem. I also had difficulty with the spring mounted plug getting stuck "open" which caused dripping between the faucet and the coffeemaker. I ended up returning my coffeemaker for a refund.

There is a stop valve that is engaged when the coffee pot is not in place. Perhaps that valve is not properly pushed up when you put the coffee pot in its spot.

Eric it sounds like when you initially set it up you did not add enough water and there may not be enough water in the reservoir. Or you do not brew coffee enough and water is evaporating off between brews. I would check the Bunn Web site as they were quite helpful when I needed them.

I am sorry you have had problems with your coffee maker...Have you made sure the beans are on fine grind and the cup selection is on the darkest...I love coffee and this coffee maker does make good strong coffee it is a hair lighter than an espresso. Maybe you should look at espresso machines too.

You have to make at least half a pot of coffee, so it probably wouldn't be a good one for you. If not used consistently, the water evaporates, too.

Sandy, I had this coffee machine... IT STINKS.. to put it mildly. Same problem you are having. I loved the coffee but the pot was a pain to deal with. The only model worth the money and I'd buy it over and over again is the "Hamilton Beach 48464 Brewstation Summit" Believe me, get the 48464 and you will not be disappointed one bit. GREAT COFFEE, NO LEAKING, NO PROBLEMS... I THINK IT IS BEST TO START OUT WITH THE ONE YOU HAVE SO YOU WILL NEVER BE WEAK ENOUGH TO PURCHASE THAT MODEL AGAIN.GET RID OF THIS ONE AND GET THE ONE I HAVE. YOU WILL NOT BE SORRY....

Are you using the optional filter? If so we did not have good luck with it. Put 6 coffee scoops of coffee in the gold basket, make sure the snap on lid is secure and the other lid is closed. The coffee is amazing but definately not watery! In fact the bottom of the pot has a sediment that most of the time that we prefer to not drink.

I sent this coffee maker back..it leaks water or coffee all over..I read this in the comments and bought it anyway. They were right and I should have taken them seriously. Not having the coffee maker anymore I can't advise on the cup but I will warn u against buying it.. A word to the wise should be sufficient.

Make sure you get the carafe directly under the basket all the way in. It's a little stiff at first. If it's not all the way in the shut-off valve may not allow the drip/brewing. Otherwise I can't imagine what's wrong.
