My Portafilter handle sits sideways under the brewer unit. Yes, I have it locked in place and then the handle pops backward. Any suggestions?

Do not have much of an answer on this other than throw it away and purchase something better. My whole unit broke 1-month out of warranty over a year ago (what a waste of $240).

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

it looks that you overfilled the the cup with ground coffee,try to have at least 3 mm clearance from the coffee grounds to the edge of the cup

Did you take your portafilter apart for any reason, because it sounds as if you have the bottom assembly off by 180 degrees when you put it back together.

Call Bunn and order a soft water spout. This will fix your problem. It will add 20 seconds to the brewing cycle but no more overflows.

The sleeve clamp that holds the tubing to the keg coupler is crimped to tight. Need to cut it off and redo it with a regular tubing clamp.

loosing the screw that hold the unit to the flange. Pull it right down.... push it back in during install

OMG! Me too! I can NOT get the spout to line up between the handles. It always ends up over the handle no matter where I start to spin the top on. I have had some cups that need to start in a certain spot in order to end up in the middle. But this one will only be between the handles if I don't twist it tight. And when I do that, it LEAKS. I do have the handle in the proper position between the little slots too. Grrrrrrrrr!!!!! I think these are going back to the store.

No, if you pull the handle to the out position, it should lock in place until you push the button to release it! If this is happening, I would send it back for a replacement.

I had the same problem. The outside handle has to be vertical. It doesn't look so great but it works. The spring in the inside of the original handle must have been stronger.

I was using this for the 3rd time in my B40 and apparently I bent the needle in the black peice of the Keurig, causing us to go through several K-cups of hot chocolate for my kids before realizing it was messed up. We bent the needle back & it'll work, but there's no doubt that it's just a matter of time before I'll need to order that peice for the Keurig. I'm hesitant to use the ecobrew again...what did you do to ensure it was fitting right?

never had that problem. However there is a mechanism that shuts off water flow thru the filter if the glass pot is not in place. My guess is this mechanism is falsely reporting the absence of the pot at some pint during the brew.

This is part of the issue I have had from the beginning. Try turning the knob situated above the handle. It locks the unit in place if you have it seated properly. I hope that helps...

I've had the same problem. Bad design. The workaround that I've found is to close the top before putting the carafe in place. If you put the carafe in first and then close the top, it doesn't seem to work as well.

Unscrew that black piece on the top of the plunger. You have to feed the plunger part up from the bottom to get it in right.

Hmm never messed with the stock portafilter on these machines. You can take the whole inside assembly out and put in your basket, tamp and run it unpressurized. It pulls a much better shot if you have a good grind and beans. Sorry I'm not more help!

Make sure the attachment is pushed all the way in, then turn the locking ring at the top of the handle. It can be difficult to turn!

What happens to the brewer? Are you using the kcup adapter or your own grounds?

The only thing I can think of is to make sure the "ears" on the lower part of the carafe butt against the pegs on the mixer. That leaves the handle at a right angle to the face of the base. Hope that helps.

Mine didn't initially want to go on, but I pressed down on it, hard, and screwed it in place at the same time. Two things, make sure that you tighten it in a clockwise direction looking down on it, and firmly grasp the section just below where you're screwing the end cap on so that you don't accidentally bow or break the handle.I hope that's of some help.
