Machine became noisier and coffee doesn't come out as easily as it was, any suggestion?(beside cleaning the machine, I already did this), Thanks

I think the machine is just noisy... If the coffee is not coming out that easily.. Try unscrewing the strainer in the espresso cup and cleaning out the tiny hole in it... Also, perhaps you're packing the espresso too tightly?

Reread the instructions and make sure you didn't miss something. Then call Krups. You may have to hang up and call back in a few times until you get someone that bothered to learn the machines.

We took the handle and cup part and took the inside cup out. Then took a small straw abd pushed it through were the coffee exits into the waiting cups. We found that these small tubes get gummed up

If you've gone through all the cleaning steps described in the manual, it seems it might be time for descaling. The procedure is explained in the manual, and you could use something like DeLonghi EcoDecalk: De'Longhi EcoDeCalk Natural Descaler for Coffee MachinesHope this helps.

The only thing I can think of is that you my be using too much coffee or the holes in the bottom of the filter might be some how obstructed or not properly made at the factory. There is a good instructional video on you tube that I recommend watching. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DwPGkq8SFE There might me something helpful to you in the video. This is how I learned to do it.

Make sure you get the carafe directly under the basket all the way in. It's a little stiff at first. If it's not all the way in the shut-off valve may not allow the drip/brewing. Otherwise I can't imagine what's wrong.

I had the same problem and was told by Keurig customer service to run a mixture of vinegar and water through the machine. That solved the problem. I can't recall the mix but Keurig should be able to assist

hi chris. my coffeemaker doesn't seem to vibrate loudly. i have noticed that if you put the cone with the coffee in before sliding in the carafe it seats itself better. there seems to be a little ridge at about 11:00 so if you pop in the cone and then turn it slightly to the left it kind of locks the cone down. you'll notice that the carafe slides in smoothly if the cone is is locked down. my husband did not do this the first time he made the coffee and it made a bit of a mess. it could be vibrating if it isn't seated right. i wasn't home to hear it but got to clean it up. :)

Make sure you're cleaning out the little float valve on the lid. It can clog up with coffee grinds from time to time if you've put a little too much in the filter area.

Yes -That's what mine sounds like as well...much quieter than a traditional espresso machine... Enjoy!

my percolator is pretty loud also when brewing. seems normal although I cant hear mine "throughout the house"

There is a lever on the brewing basket which regulates the flow of the coffee into the pot. It has settings of off, half on, and full on (up). That might be your problem.

In our case, we have never had that problem. Other than it being louder than our Keurig, we've been very happy with the unit. My advice would be to exchange it, but not return it. When you get the pods directly from the CBTL brick and mortar store, at $.60 a piece, this machine is a joy and a great value.

Run the cycle of brewing a cup of coffee, you should be able to open the lid than, it happened to me once and that's how I fixed it. Good luck!!

Mine started making a lot of noise, at all times of the day, not just while brewing. Then it started brewing incorrect water sizes. Finally it just stopped working completely, no power at all. I called Cuisinart and they offered to send me a new one for $10. I had to ship the old one back, but it is still worth it.

I had the same problem, the machine made the pump noise but no coffee. The cause of the problem was the water tank was not seated properly. I pushed down the tank as far as it went and the problem was solved.

It's crazy, huh! I thought I had broken it or burned out the pump motor. My "mistake" was not filling the water reservoir all the way to FULL. And it was making a horrible sound, too. Funny thing was, I could get steam to come out of the steam wand, but not the coffee maker. So I unplugged it, let it rest for awhile, read the (poorly written) directions again, and then made a second attempt. This time I filled the water tank completely full, turned it on, waited for the green light, and then flipped the switch. Success!...(Although it still makes the horrible grinding noise). I am currently looking for another (different model) espresso machine, I don't like this one AT ALL. It's crazy, huh! I thought I had broken it or burned out the pump motor.

I had this issue as well. I emailed customer service at Krups and they said "The settings are fine to coarse, left to right." I decided to see for myself and ground coffee at each of the extremes. Frankly they don't look that different, maybe the right-most setting seems more coarse, but it's not obvious. I'm wondering if my machine isn't working correctly.

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.

I'm sorry to hear that but I don't have that issue with mine. I'm very pleased with the way my machine operates. Maybe check to make sure there are no clogs in the cover opening.
