Water Comes Back Into Reservoir and Short-Cups Me: Anyone have a solution to this problem?

I found a solution! Take a can of compressed air, the kind you use to clean your keyboard, and shoot a few short bursts into the water drain after removing the water reservoir. Do this when the machine is off and the water has cooler. OR, use a small needle to poke around in the top piercing needle for a few seconds then run a cycle without a k-cup. You should get a full cup of hot water with lots of coffee grounds floating around. It's a quirk but this resolution really works!

Difficult to tell. Check the wwater reservoir connecton with machine. Also make sure you drained the stam out throug wand. There is a valve that prevents water from coming out when steam is present. I.e there is preasure build up.

I didn't have that problem I let water run in about 5 glasses before drinking maybe change filter that might help

Have not had that problem, I have well water. I do drain the supply tube hose when finished. This may help.

If the sump area is small and your discharge is at a somewhat high elevation, the water will flow back in and cause the pump to continue to restart. I would suggest you install an inline check valve just after the pump discharge.

Hi! Make sure you release your handle so that it drops back on the floor, set water reservoir container in place by releasing side handles of the container. Drop reservoir in place and push side handles back in place to secure. Bring your main handle back up into position, facing machine drop clean water reservoir into place on top of holding reservoir and by gently pushing the front of top reservoir towards the machine it will click into place. Good luck!

Yes I had the same problem. The first time I tried to brew, only two cups went through and the coffee was cold. Tried once more holding the reservoir and no water would go through. Packed it up and sent it back after 2 tries.

Hi Chris, so sorry you are having this problem. If the water is coming out from the bottom through the grid where the wiring is .... you can see it through the multiple little holes, it is defective. There are two "legs", one on each side to slide out and anchor the device. Please let me know what happens.

There is a silicone valve, in the upper reservoir, designed to keep water in when no pressure is applied. That valve has a slit that may not have been fully opened during manufacturing. It is a simple fix. Take the valve out (something you'll do from time to time for cleaning anyway) and pinch it to make the slit open. Once you've done so, re-insert the valve and you should be good to go.

I had this problem as well, make sure the water tank is placed correctly. My tank wasn't pushed all the way down. I hope this solves your issue as well.

I am considering the Beaba, but what you've written sounds like there may be mold in the reservoir. Ugh.

This same answer was provided by Clint in his advice, but it was the same problem I had when first using my machine: Make sure that the tube that goes into the fluid reservoir (a/k/a tank) is reaching the liquid in the reservoir. This can get pulled back up through the cap (or may just never have been positioned correctly) so that it doesn't reach far enough into the reservoir to pull the fluid out.

I just went through this issue as well, with the New and Improved filters...as Special Etc mentioned, it was because I hadn't pushed down on the filter enough to create a seal. I could actually see water leaking out the bottom, in addition to it pouring out the 4 holes. After pulling it out, re-inserting it and pushing it down hard, it sat much better and the filtering was back to normal again.

Hey Dennis I have not had this problem however if you are or they are not using the water that is being filtered and stored in the reservoir then they maybe the issue! I have been in the habit of pulling all the filtered water out once a month to ensure water quality! Simply let the faucet run until empty ! By the way if you have a older unit with out the pressure switch for the light that could be the problem they have offered a fix to that problem and is available from ispring! Richard

I that happened to me.. basically you over filled it and the pressure pushed the top tank up.... fill up to the top of filter, or just below. It's good to go

Most likely you are overfilling the water container. Fill it up to 1/2 inch from the top.

I fill my unit I/2 inch from the top. If the water still flows poorly, check the pump, it may have a blockage. Rinse the pump real well. Hopefully this will help.
