Plunge takes two minutes, even with wet plunger. Any ideas?

That's about right. You're pushing through a filter paper, and you don't want to blow it out!

I had a similar problem with my first AeroPress. It turned out I was grinding too fine. By backing off just a little and making the grind larger, the coffee flowed and the flavor was the same. I hope that helps.

The fineness of the grind is critical in this thing. I find that Espresso grind is way too fine. If I get a bag of Verona or Espresso roast beans from Starbucks I have them grind it "fine drip." That seems to work perfectly. I have taken to taking half fine drip and half espresso grind to use up the finely ground coffee. It takes a bit of pressure, but the coffee is fine.

Try using a really good plunger first. This does the job but it could scratch the the toilet bowl a bit. Anyway, it is cheaper than a plumber.

Hi, this is Steve over at Aqua Products. 1st this issue may be hard to diagnose over the internet, so if you want to talk to someone live please call 1-800-845-4856. Ok here are some ideas. First if you bring the cleaner up to the pool surface you should be able to see if the water flow switches from forward to backward after say 30 seconds if this does not happen it could be debris stuck in the intake, or in the propeller. Please also check if the bag was installed properly. lastly it could be a simple spring on the flap. I hope this helps.steve

It could be that you didn't fill the float with water by holding it underwater for a minute or two when you 1st installed it. That was barely mentioned in the instructions but sounds like something that would assist in moving the float down.

Maybe 2-3 minutes. It does not take long at all. Of course, the more water in it in longer it takes. I think when it is at the max level it wold take 3 minutes.

I unscrewed the tip that was in there and screwed it in....the plunger was a little wierd to work, don't push too hard or it squirts everywhere

Hi George, I would first check the pressure in the holding tank to make sure it is correct. Have seen where water will come out fast but trickle off quickly and this is sometimes the problem.

I had the same problem. The flapper closes too fast. Try holding on to the lever for a couple of seconds to empty the tank.

Hello: the plunger is probably in the locked position. While holding the black ring, turn the clear top part until it releases.

It doesn't take long maybe less than a minute...... You probably got a bad one.... Check to see if you have it connected correctly... if that is not the issue return it for a replacement that works, you will not be disappointed if you get one that works.

Make sure that the little rubble black thing is solidly inside the opening in the back above the usb connection. If you have used it before, sediment may be clogging the tiny little hole where the mist comes out. I use a paperclip or something else that is slightly sharp to scrape across the hole to clear it. Usually this takes care of the problem and it will start misting after about 5 to ten minutes.

the solution has probably crystalized in the tube. Try flushing it out with only hot, hot water and that may help, at least for the moment. Honestly you'll most likely end up buying another one.

Get in to your Amazon purchases and go to the plunger purchase. In that order page there SHOULD be a "contact seller" button. If not write a review and tell Amazon of your problem. They are very good about replacing items. I have had to return only a few, but my experiences have been good. Hope this helps!

Hey Mavis,Sorry, but I've never 'timed' it. I just fill the kettle, set my surface burner to a low level, and do something else while I wait for the whistle. Royfill

Possible deposits along the plunger track, maybe calcium build-up. Try a little "CLR" or contact the manufacturer.

I've never timed it. It's fairly short, maybe 5 minutes. I believe it percs too quickly because there is evidence that the water is overloading the basket containing the coffee grounds. A significant quantity of grounds end up in the bottom of the pot and in your cup when the coffee is poured.

Gallons per minute and pressure drop in house if filter doesn't let water through fast enough.
