Has never happened to me. Does it go away when you push program button? Or Program + hour?

Yes. I did experience the same issue with mine. Tried to return the machine but amazon did not allowed me to do so. I dont use the machine any more as the coffee always smells burned.

Not sure if this is the problem of the coffee machine or the variety of the coffee that u are using. Try to use different variety of coffee. I think. Good luck

Don't know how you managed to bend the band on the carafe - strange. I've had my unit for about 3 years without any problems like that. You can find the replacement carafes for that coffee maker on-line and for awhile they were available at my local Target store. The cost for the replacement carafe will be a bit high in regard to what the complete coffee maker originally cost but that's how it is in the world of replacement parts. Sorry for your bad luck with your coffee maker.

Run the cycle of brewing a cup of coffee, you should be able to open the lid than, it happened to me once and that's how I fixed it. Good luck!!

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

Make sure you're cleaning out the little float valve on the lid. It can clog up with coffee grinds from time to time if you've put a little too much in the filter area.

Only if you don't want to use it again. This acid is pretty potent stuff, reminds of MEK which I handled at a previous job. I would try baking soda and vinegar for your coffee maker. Use one-third cup vinegar and half cup baking soda.

The answer is that I haven't tried to unscrew it, because in the past (that is, on other French press models) I have not been able to screw it up firmly enough again. I rinse it immediately after making coffee and then put the entire unit in the dishwasher. This works.

Ours does the same sometimes and generally indicates the tank hasn't been properly seated in the machine. Make sure to carefully place the tank when you fill it and that should reduce the problem. I know this is hard before having coffee so perhaps fill the tank the day before when your brain has already been caffienated.

I don't know what the problem is ... have never had it. Can only guess that you are not attaching it properly. Try to be sure it is evenly hooked into both the main grooves (and not filled over the top with coffee) before you turn it, and lock it in. I love our machine. If you clean it each time (run it through without coffee a little), it should last many years. pg

If its the Pressure valve on the side of the bottom chamber, then it a definite defect and you should request a replacement. If it's the coffee release valve( that consists of two pieces) on the upper chamber, then you need to make sure that top piece is secured tightly to the screw like piece underneath.

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.

This is my second coffee maker like this, I have one in each home. I have never had the problem you are having with either one. A defective unit perhaps?

I have owned three of these coffee pots. One had the same problem. I had to pull out the instructions and follow them exactly. This particular pot required cleaning OFTEN. I hope this helps.
