Is there a hole in the cup part that drains to the "reservoir"? Or do you have to drain the spout and then drain the actual cup?

Yes, there is an opening where the base of the carafe drains into the saucer. It works perfectly once you adjust cooking times to bacon thickness. And it is made by an artist's hands in Joplin, Missouri. A gift NOT MADE IN CHINA! Doesn't get much better than that.

There's a hole in the cup part for draining, right where the spout is. You can see it on the second picture at the top of the page.

It mostly drains by itself. The base is tilted so that the water drains away from the highest point (silverware tray). However, at the base the opening is only in the middle and so a tiny bit of water can accumulate on either side of the drainage opening. I tip it a bit from left to right if I see water sitting there. To me it's not a big deal.

It will pass through the spout but the cup comes with a removeable valve that may not let the thicker mixture through. Like I said it can be removed so if you are not concerned about spills from the cup being turned up side down you should be fine using it without the valve.

The drain hole is located on the side about 2-3 inches above the bottom. You will have to pour any remaining water out.

take the lid off before draining for safety.....the pour spout is there so the contents don't splash. the lid is not intended to stay on when pouring.

Not from the bottom but it does leak from the top spout. Sounds like yours is defective. They will ship you a new one if you return it but you have to pay postage to send it to them, if you want to do that. Go on their website and fill out the return form and they will email you a return authorization and the address to ship it to.

There is a cup attachment that partially covers the holes. Be sure you have installed the inside base properly.

I've never had this problem. The spout is a small opening and the cup seal is very tight. In fact, I have the mug beside me right now. No issues here.

Did you unscrew the spout - counterclockwise. You may have to really hold the lid part while you do it. Then fill and pump.

No you drain from the top. I was disappointed in this product. The plastic bowl cracked very quickly,would not buy again,

hold onto both ends and both ends of glass lid and use pour spout to drain water. Very easy. Or justm dump into collander.

Hi,you have to make sure the replacement spout connects the same way as existing spout. There are two types of spouts.

Mine has a glass spout and I haven't experienced any problems with leaking.

It doesn't appear so. I looked when I checked the leaks, but it seems to be molded with the plastic around it. Maybe someone else knows something about replacing it that I don't. In all fairness, I've had this coffee maker for several years and it just now is rusting through.

No. You have to put the water in the carafe to get the right amount of cups first, then pour in the reservoir.

There are 2 small holes in the bottom of the one I have. I find that this is about perfect for how I brew coffee, the most crucial thing is to have the right grind, it may take a couple try's to perfect it, but I've never had a bad cup of coffee out of this thing

Yes, it does come off for filling. You can also (carefully) pour water in to the reservoir while it's still attached to the coffee maker.
