This glass knob BLOCKS the coffee from hitting the top, when it percolates.I cannot put a finger on the inside,and touch the top.Is your knob similar?

The knob that originally came with the Coleman 12-cup coffee pot worked great until it broke. The coffee came up and you could tell when to turn down the heat. The replacement fits-all glass knob with it's metal adapter plate is clearly smaller in diameter than the original. We haven't actually perked any coffee yet. The Fitz-all covers the hole and i'm hoping that will be sufficient. I know there are several coffee pots that don't have a glass knob at all and they seem to work, so I'm hoping this will work even if we can't see the percolating action.

When I take off the cover and look, mine has a fingernail deep "well" in the glass. Have you tried yours? Mine works great!!

I do not have that problem. Could it have so sort of packing stuff in it? My knob was packed very secure.

The glass knob does not block the coffee, we can see it perk. I cannot touch the inside of the knob especially when cleaning it.

No. Mine is not like this. It sounds like you have a defective top. I'm sure they will replace it.

Hi, check that the siphon tube is connected fully and that no coffee ground "gunk" is in the small strainer. Cleaning this part with a toothbrush helps. The other thing is to see that the silver dispenser bar is engaging all the way.

My Keurig is black and so is the top of the stand. I actually don't have mine on the counter though because when I set my Keurig on top of it, it's too close to the underside of the cabinet for me to be able to open the top of the coffer maker and put in the pod.

I already responded "yes" you can see it jumping up and down in the top. However, the coffee leaks from around the see-through bubble, and runs down the top and side of the pot. FYI. I mailed mine back for refund.

However, I looked a little closer at mine and the "stem" in the middle is not round so it might not fit on the stem in the Percolator! Check that out first before cutting the hole!

I am not sure since I use mine in a bunn drip coffee maker but I did see that and wondered why they had that in the middle now that you ask that it makes sense that it would be for a percolator. I say give it a try!

Sorry you are having that problem, I have bumped, dropped in sink, etc., and never broken a one. The sure way to solve your problem is to buy the Stainless Mr. Coffee DRD 8-cup....It is great and keeps coffee hotter for much longer period of time.

I've had this happen on occasion. If some grounds get stuck in the lid opening, it blocks the coffee from entering. Just a bit of debris can make the little moving flap stick in the closed position. Rinse out the lid under running water and shake it to make sure you can hear the flap move. As I've noted before, this coffeemaker can be very temperamental because it has a number of little parts that, if even slightly blocked, can mess up the whole operation.

No. I had one before that allowed the coffee to kinda run behind the spout, this one doesn,t.

Not really becuse you press the coffee below the top. It maybhit it when you pour. Not sure..

Both will only touch glass. The plastic top is used to hold steam in and to hold up the top part when coffee is done. Best coffee maker Iv ever owned.

Same problem, also contacted seller and was sent replacement carafe with no improvement. I suspect it's just a design flaw, although interestingly when the coffee pot is freshly cleaned the dripping is minimal (maybe coffee deposits on the lip of the plastic pour change the surface tension/capillary action? idk...)

Yes. There is a spring-held plastic catch device that "blocks" the grinds from falling from the top portion into the carafe.

Try just turning the selector counter - clockwise. We always leave ours on strong and adjust the strength with the amount of coffee we put in.

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.

not really. also, since there is a pour spout, coffee splashes out of it while pressing.

Hi Victoria:I delayed answering your email because I wanted to be 100% sure I was correct. I went home and made a pot of (Mountian Blue) coffee. I filled it up to 5 cups - on the glass carafe it was just a tad under the max line and not a drop spilled. So short answer your pot is defective :(
