I don't know why it happens but I had the same experience and left a review here on it. One way to work around it is (and this only works if you're only making 3 or so cups, otherwise you'll have a mess) to not put the carafe in until it's done brewing. I kept the dumb thing but ordered the glass universal which works fine.

I have never had that happen with any of the Mr Coffee machines I would get in touch with the company looks like thermostat or connection
1665131
Well...You are welcome...and Congratulations on figuring it out...I strongly suggest pre-warming the carafe with hot water before brewing. That's the only way we get hot coffee from the carafe. ENJOY! Heck, I think I'll go make myself a cup of coffee.

I'm sorry. Mine does that also. It only brews a couple of cups and shuts off completely. I kept turning it back on until it got to be a nuisance. So now I make the coffee in the glass carafe and transfer the fresh coffee into the stainless carafe when it is done. The stainless carafe has a magnetic bottom so the machine "knows" when you are using it. The warming plate doesn't turn on when using the stainless carafe. Seems to be a defect in the design. Maybe someday the manufacturer will figure it out.

Same here. When using this thermal carafe the machine makes 1 or 2 cups, then turns itself off. I have to manually re-start it 4 or 5 times to get 8 cups made. Doesn't happen with glass.

We are sorry to hear that your coffee maker is not completing the brew cycle. For assistance, please contact customer service directly. You can send an email through our website at www.mrcoffee.com/contactus.

I'm not sure why it turns off while brewing. Our coffee maker senses the carafe and know to not turn on the bottom warmer. So when the brew cycle is finished the machine shuts down. Also, you can only brew 8 cups in the carafe, so if you are trying to brew 12 cups, I'm not sure what happens, but it may know to shut itself off? Sorry I can't be more help. Our carafe brews the full 8 cups every time.

Unfortunately, I don't have an answer for either question. I have never just sat there and waited for the blue light to go green (green being done). It will brew with a slight perking sound, and when I don't hear it any more, I'll check and its usually ready. Still can't give you a time. As far as going dry, I will check periodically (depending on how many are here drinking coffee), and when its down to 10 cups or less, I will unplug it. I haven't seen anything saying it will shut off when dry. That's why I mentioned I will check. Don't know if I helped with your questions, but hope I did.

Glad to help. Also, the machine does not turn off when you shut the lid, I made that mistake a couple times. It will run itself dry and you wont see its on because the lid's is shut. So always remember to flick the switch toward you to off.

I find that it stops brewing... Then I would remove the grounds...and maybe occasionally it will kind of sound like it's trying to rebrew but actually is just reheating... I personally think you wouldn't want to leave it plug in all day or it would taste old and burnt... Hope this helps!

No, great machine. Mine was faltering so I bought a second one before they discontinued them. I now have them in two locations and I have to unplug one after each use as it will not shut off. Great coffee

Hi there! I've now had (3) of these machines and for the price it is a Very good machine. I would guess your grind is either too coarse and the pressurized water is going right through - but also, if too fine the water can find its way around the coffee and find a 'channel' to flow through making it way too weak.These variations led us to "ESE Pods". They are very consistent and VERY clean, especially if you need multiple 'shots'. That machine has a special disk just for pods. The downside is they are more expensive (try Miscela'd oro at 1st Line abour $.33 per if in bulk), but the time savings and cleanliness during a busybusy morning makes it well worth it!!Good Luck!PG Hi there!

I'm going to call them today about mine. I got mine last September for my birthday. I have been having pump issues, as well as it has started to leak underneath. I'm glad to hear you had a positive experience with them. I emailed their customer service department today. I guess I need to call instead. I will do so when I get home. I love my coffee brewer, and I descale it every 4 months religiously (even though I only use bottled water). I will let everyone know the outcome.

This sounds like a defect to me. I would contact Hamilton or see if Amazon can replace the coffee pot. I've never had this problem.

Ok. Your coffee maker is still under warranty. Return it to where you bought it and get another. If they don't cooperate, contact Mr. Coffee, online, and they will make arrangements to send you a new one. I just did this very thing because of a bad heating plate that rusted out. Best of luck!

I am sorry you have had problems with your coffee maker...Have you made sure the beans are on fine grind and the cup selection is on the darkest...I love coffee and this coffee maker does make good strong coffee it is a hair lighter than an espresso. Maybe you should look at espresso machines too.

you must have a different model. All I have is the on/off - heating - brewing lights. Sorry couldn't help.

Rebecca, Use the scoop to measure your ground coffee and put it in the small basket. Behind the basket is a small open tank and that's where you put your water. I just use my own measuring Tablespoon and follow the amounts given on my coffee can (Folgers regular coffee + 1Tablespoon coffee grounds per 6 oz water. Then flip the red button and it will light up so you know its on. It wont do anything for several seconds but then you'll hear it start to brew. When its done brewing you have to flip the switch back to the off position. It will not turn off by itself. Don't leave it on as it could be a fire hazard if left long enough. After using it for awhile if the brewing gets slow you can brew a cup of half white vinegar and half water (no coffee.) Let half of the vinegar-water brew and shut off the machine. Let it sit a few hours or overnight. Then turn the machine back on and let the other half of the vinegar-water brew all the way. Then shut it off to cool a little. Then run a cup of plain water all the way through. Repeat the plain water brewing until it doesn't smell like vinegar anymore (usually just 2 brewing cycles.) It will run like new again after you do that. Doesn't need it very often. I adore my Caf Uno and hope you enjoy yours.

Eric it sounds like when you initially set it up you did not add enough water and there may not be enough water in the reservoir. Or you do not brew coffee enough and water is evaporating off between brews. I would check the Bunn Web site as they were quite helpful when I needed them.

Bob, Sounds like you got a brewer that has a defect in the manufacturing by Keurig. As we have tested this unit in every brewer and it works and closes every time. Reach out to us by clicking on the contact seller button for Ekobrands LLC and we will get you taken care of.

Call Breville directly, If you've had the coffee machine less then a year I would call the company tell them whats going on with yours, my first one did that after 30 days Hope you are still in the warranty time frame. They are junk! Im on my 3rd one and I really would just rather get my money back.

It it came off it's likely broken. Contact Amazon for replacement instructions as they are very good about that and other customer service issues I have had. If you have had the maker for a relatively short time... 30 days or less they will replace it without question I'm sure... or a refund. If less than a yr, (I recall the warranty being either 90 days or 1 year, not sure which) then Mr. Coffee will stand back of it in conjunction with Amazon. Give 'em a call'
