This coffee maker is now leaking at the bottom of the holding tank. How do we fix this?

If the leak just above the coffee drip dispense area, that is normal. If anywhere else I'm not sure. Could the unit have been over filled?

That's NOT good. My system has never leaked. You should contact the manufacturer.

sorry can't you with this. But I did have to return mine because it was leaking water from the bottom. Cuisinart was very good about the return but we did have to pay the shipping. Oh we had been using the coffee maker just over a year.

I have reached out to thermos as my bottom most o ring has become disabled (falls off, doesnt seal) Ill let you know what happens.

Mine did the same thing. Turns out it was leaking coffee through the metal heating plate at the base of the tank. Tightening the screws on the metal plate did not solve the problem. Possibly I warped it by pouring cold water on it while it was hot? Not something I normally do but it may have happened once or twice.

Because it is leaking. I had the same problem and called Hamilton Beach and they are sending me a new unit. Had a choice of whether to wait until the end of the month when they will have a new improved one of the same model or a different model. I chose to go for a different model. All I had to pay is $13.00 for shipping.

Just put a cup under and drain until no more comes out. Also, the part where the coffee is comes out I believe. It's easy to maintain.

I would try adjusting the rubber gasket on the arm of the frother like Fran Harry suggested and see if that works. If it doesn't improve I'd contact Keurig customer service. Good luck!

I have had no issues with the Carafe leaking. My only issue is that the coffee does not stay hot very long

We don't smell coffee when ours is closed so I would think perhaps it isn't sealing properly and you should contact the seller.

As far as I know there is nothing you can do to fix that other than to replace the part. You might find the occasional well-stocked hardware store that would have the part you are after but the better bet would be to contact Thermos directly at: 1-800-831-9242 or visit www.thermos.com. I have been handwashing mine - not sure if that absolutely needs to happen but so far there have been no issues doing it that way. Good luck!

I don't have a tried and true answer for you because I have not had a problem. But here are a couple of suggestions to try. Make sure you let it cool down before trying to dump it. Make sure to take it all apart (including the rubber gasket) and cleaning really good at least once a week or maybe more. Make sure you don't put more coffee in than you are supposed too. Make sure it's the right grind of coffee and not espresso grind. Hope you get the problem figured out.

I haven't had any problem with mine but if is leaking something other than coffee I would sure return it!!!!

It doesn't appear so. I looked when I checked the leaks, but it seems to be molded with the plastic around it. Maybe someone else knows something about replacing it that I don't. In all fairness, I've had this coffee maker for several years and it just now is rusting through.

Mine lasted for well over a year before it started to leak underneath the bottom, even had it cleaned it out which it seemed to work fine for a few uses before starting to leak once more. Really sad to be having this problem as I absolutely love this coffee maker!

I dont see any way to drain it(there may be a way). They had a super bad problem with pumps on these and Kuerig as they made the internals for both coffee makers.I am now looking for a machine not made by them.My machine just sat there and buzzed , no water or coffee no matter what I did.

If it leaks from the lid when you pour, there are two things assuming the coffee maker does not have a defect. First, pour a bit slowly. Second, when getting the last bit from the pot, take off the lid and then those last drops will come out under control. We like out coffee maker.
