If the water tank runs out while in the middle of brewing, how do you restart/continue the brewing after re-filling the water?

turn the coffee maker off. Repace tthe water, take the disc out , turn the coffee maker on and replace the disc and start the process again.

Unfortunately, you would need to restart. But iit is easy to tell whether you have enough water for a full cup.

Fill it & push the start button. Happened this am. Occasionally it starts back w/o hitting start!

Should keep it full - but can keep it less than full (enough to make what you are brewing). Problem is the "ring" of particulate matter that that forms from tap water, keep it at the top.

The light on ours goes out when the top water reservoir goes empty and the bottom water reservoir drops below a certain level. I then turn the machine off, refill both reservoirs, then turn machine back on. I use both switches only to start the boil, then I turn off the high switch. It still boils but uses less energy.

I had the same problem with my brewer - the menu cycled incessantly, and you had to press the button at exactly the right point in the cycling to get it to brew. It was under warranty. I called customer service and they sent a brand new one in 3 days. All they ask is that you send a part from the old machine that disables it. It took me about 5 minutes to make the call and get this matter resolved. Their customer service dept is excellent

As you didn't provide enough information I apologize for asking the obvious. But did you remove ALL the packing on and in the machine? Did you use the instructions as you made your for brew? Did you add water to the reservoir?If you said yes to all then I'd recommend you contact Capresso. Please follow up when you get a resolution. I'm interested to know the cause of your issue.

Unless you are directly connected to a water source that's maintains a heated resovoir the water needs to heat to the appropriate brewing temperature before brewing can begin

Do you mean when you do not wait for the brewing cycle to finish and the machine has not beeped at completion? I don't know. My machine drips if I pull the pot out before it has completed brewing. ALSO, be sure to have the main coffee filter holder clicked into place. Ugh! Huge mess! Coffee grounds all over the inside of my pot. It is still better than the previous model. I do not use the reusable filter. I use the paper filters. Hope this helps!

Your best bet is to make a pot of coffee while you are awake and see where the problem originates. With a different model, we found that we added too many grounds and the basket would overflow. If you are in an area with hard water, be sure to run white vinegar or other hard water remover through the system. All the other answers are good too. Until you watch the process, though, you can't really find the problem to come up with a solution.

No, just to start and stop brewing, you have to keep an eye on the water level though as that is related to the intensity. Pretty easy and straight forward. I hope this helps.

Try cleaning with vinager, trying running it thru the brewing cycle. If that doesn't work, send it back. I didn't have that problem with mines.

It shuts off after the water level is too low. Just add more water to keep using, or dump leftover water if you won't be using for a few days.

Oh my goodness, thank you so much for posting this solution! I have just spent an hour trying to unclog the filters with the cleaning tool and with vinegar, but to no avail. I didn't think it was clogged with coffee grounds since I've only used pods so far, and as far as I know, we don't have hard water. (Plus, we've only been using the machine for 2 weeks.) I was ready to bring it back to the store. It turns out the water tank just wasn't pushed in all the way. Seems to me this simple suggestion should be in the list of troubleshooting tips in the owner's manual, because I have a feeling a number of people are having this problem and attributing it to something more serious.

Mine does exactly the same thing, there is a floating piece in the tank that goes down and triggers a sensor to tell the machine the water is to a certain level. On mine that is when there is about three inches of water in the tank. Yes it seems like it should use that water but it wont. I just learned to keep mine full. My guess is that it is that way becase if you leave the machine on it keeps heating water in the internal tank and this way it has water to replenish the internal tank if it needs it. Either way, your machine is working normaly.

Some of the tank storage water will evaporate during the week. So the first pot brewed will not be a full one. The following ones will be full. I'd run the first without coffee.

It's not going to happen - the machine won't let you start a brewing cycle if there isn't enough water to finish it.

Remove and wash the tank. Then flush the system with tap water (fill tank full and run a few batches without coffee), there may be some contaminants in the system from the manufacturing process or storage. Good luck.
