Assuming you didn't disassemble it for cleaning, these should be unrelated. I just had the same problem. Mine was 2.5 years old. There's a 3 year warranty. They sent me a new one. With a new warranty. If it's over 3 years old, it's time to buy a new one.

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.

First did you wash out the coffee pot before use, and second maybe the water. I have never had a problem

Sounds like the water is having a hard time getting out of the coffee filter. Sine the spring is not working anyway try removing the plug entirely. As far as returning it try contacting calphalon directly. They do a good job of standing behind their products. This is unfortunately not one of their better executions.

I'm sorry to hear that you had a problem with your carafe. I know they sell these parts on Mr Coffee.com. I would also write to customer service and let them know what happened. Maybe they'll replace it for free. Good luck!

Make sure you fill water below the spout opening. You could also try cleaning it with 1/4 cup vinegar and fill with water just below opening and run full cycle. Then empty and make fresh pot of coffee.

The Bunn works by always keeping the water inside warm and ready to make coffee all the time, no boiling ever. It does not boil the water for each pot and then turn off. If you don't make coffee often you must either unplug it or add water as after several days it starts to run dry. If you study the subject coffee tastes better if made with hot water, not boiling. Just place pot under the basket, place paper filter and coffee in basket and pour a pot full of water into top reservoir. Hot coffee comes out immediately. Good luck with your Bunn.

Sell the carafe on eBay and put the rest in the garbage. Mine did the same after 3 months.

Make sure you have the grind feature turned off, no water in reservoir, and hit the "on" button. That'll turn it back on. I used to do this with my Krups coffeemaker all the time. It worked!

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.

No mention was made as to how old your unit is. A thermal carafe is only as good as the vacuum seal surrounding the carafe. Have you run your carafe through a dishwasher? If so, you may have liquid in areas where there should be only air or vacuum. The thermal break is gone, coffee does not stay hot. Another consideration, is the brew temp where it should be in the first place? Fouled heating elememts do not heat the water to the same high temp as clean heating elements will. Clean the elements by brewing a pot of white vinegar. It is amazing how much color (crud) the vinegar will pick up. After the vinegar, run at least two or three pots of clean water. I sometimes will run do the vinegar treatment twice. These are only guesses and not answers, but your question could be answered in so many ways. I wish i could help more.

Don't remember sent it packing. Coffee was not hot enough probably because thermal pot needs to be preheated and I only made about 5 cups at one time. Have and old pot just made 12 cups Sunday and coffee was hot, not hot when just 4 or 5 cups made

I doubt it, I'd just replace/buy a new coffee maker, it's very reasonable. Sorry, if this is not the answer that you were expecting.

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.

I've had my machine for less than a year, and lately also have not been able to get the water to push through the grounds as it always has. I've taken the baskets apart, cleaned all the filters, made an attempt at descaling, and still, the water flow stops at the grounds. My espresso machine's constipated! I'll try what Bill says, but I'm doubtful. I think it may be time already to shell out more money for repair or another model.

Water doesn't get hot, at least not on mine. I've only used it a couple of times so far. Sorry can't be of more help.Carol
