I have milk gushing out of the slot in the side of the stand...why is this doing this?

The problem is that the top and bottom parts of the metal separator cone aren't properly sealed. The raised dot on the top cone should be lined up with the notch in the base cone. Righted the round nut at the top tight enough so that the top cone completely closes the notch in the bottom cone. That should cure the problem.

Check the assembly of the separator rotor parts. There is a dimple which must align with the slot, otherwise when you screw the base on, it will not seal the O-ring. Also be sure that you have inserted the float. Turning the handle in the wrong direction will make the assembly unscrew itself.

We'll I think you need to turn the crank first before u add the milk the separator . Try that and see if that's the issue first get it spinning and then add your milk u should see a lil go past or out that the hole a lil bypass is norm see if that helps. Good luck

We had this happen when we turned the handle in the opposite direction it was supposed to be turned. It would still make motor noises, so we thought we were operating it correctly. It's much easier to crank when turned in the wrong direction than when turned the correct way, that's the only way I can remember which direction to crank it. I'm not sure if that's happening with your separator. My other guess would be that it isn't being cranked fast enough or long enough before letting the milk through. I hope that you can get it to work, good luck.

Just bought it so not much experience, but it could be a result of the type of milk you use? I used 1% with no spills. Perhaps a thicker milk like 2% may thick up more (and spill over more) than others? Try experimenting and post back. good luck!

The top spins off the base. If it has been awhile it is probably stuck on the sealing surface of the base...good luck

Sometimes mine is like that. Angle it upward and push in firmly. You don't need to have a perfect fit. Just test it before you put your food on it so it doesn't fall.

Hum, not sure. I do the hole in the other end, but not sure that is the problem. You are putting the lid on, right? If so it might just be a defective unit.

I didn't find this to be a problem since the holder can be pushed down by finger pressure as you go, which lowers the food until there is next to nothing left. However, skinny things like carrots can be trickier to mount in the holder just right so it happens correctly.

Try unscrewing it and make sure it's not clogged, I've not had this problem, so I hope this works for you. My daughter loves this stuff.

The clamp on the bottom should be preventing this. Make sure it's locked and tight enough (but not too tight -- it snapped on me and made the stand practically useless).

I have not had that probelm but perhaps the spout is not cleaned of old milk. I also make sure the cup is close to the drain spout and place a cloth napkin over the top just in case.

Mine does that if I movenit without filling draining it. It stops though. For me its only happened when I have traveled with it.

I've never had this problem with mine. In fact, I don't even use the lid anymore. I just put milk in until the stirrer is barely covered, and the the milk doesn't slosh over the edge. Is the lid's rubber gasket seated correctly? Be sure not to fill it above the "Max" line?

my case hasn't either. that's not really normal. it should fit enough so that it's not too big or too small. sorry! :( maybe you could try using a debit/credit card to space it open!

I dont think it is normal, but i hear this particular item has this flaw compared to other models. I started to double check the rubber ring and the lid for any food debris left, and normally the leaking didnt happen. Hope you try that.

Mine just slots in and out. There are a couple of buttons on each side to depress when you remove it. You might try holding those in when you pop it back, although mine just clicked back into place without doing this.

I've never had this happen. I think your container is defective. I would return it.

I don't recall anything moving in mine. Look through the slots and see what it is. Are you shaking it or just moving it around to hear the sound?

No. I haven't had any problems with that, the seal is really tight. We make almond milk, and it settles, and my daughter (14) does the shaking. I LOVE this item, and having read other reviews, clearly I wouldn't 'make' hot items in it. But duh! It only took me 2 reviews to figure that out! : ) Bottom line, it looks and feels great, and fits nicely in the milk door shelf. Hope this helps!
