Can you fill the water directly into the water reservoir or do you have to remove it?

You can fill the water reservoir either way. I take mine off and bring it to the sink, I find this easier.

Yes, but you might want to only fill to about one cup from top line to ensure that it doesn't run over. It holds a little water in the machine plus what's in the resevoir.

You can do it either way. Fill the pot and poor it into the reservoir or remove the reservoir and fill it.

I fill water directly into the reservoir without problems. This coffee maker is the very best I've owned to date! I have owned several types and one other model of Hamilton Beach coffee maker, but none of them compare in the least to this model.

You don't have to remove it just to fill it. I only remove it once an awhile to deep clean it.

You can do either. The reservoir does remove but I fill up a pitcher and lift the lid and fill it up. It's a great machine!!!

The bottom of the planter is solid, but about an inch up on the sides are slits in the plastic. If you overfill, the water will flow out. As for the reservoir, I believe you can fill it up to the hole where the watering can would be inserted....see the top two holes above the ribbed area....that is where you fill.

No, do not remove the crystals. You can't see the water level because the water is absorbed into the crystals. As they release moisture, the crystals will shrink. When the crystals have shrunk down below the fill line, then add water to the fill line.

The top separates from the machine. That's what you normally use fill the reservoir.

you lift out the water reservoir and flip it over and fill it .. very easy to do because it is light and has a handle.

Yes, although I have found it is easier to tilt it out and fill it using a large plastic cup or pitcher. Until you do it a few times, it can be a little difficult to get the reservoir back in place easily and quickly.

U can. But it has moving parts that water can get into. Just need to dry it out completely.

You have to carry the reservoir to the sink. The opening for the water is at the base.

Has a reservoir you fill from the tap. No option for direct water line to it.

Nope - none. Put the intake right into the paint can and draw the paint directly into the reservoir. Works quite simply.

Do you completely remove the water reservoir when you fill it? Does it all leak out before or after you turn on the brewer? Is it snapped into place, or is there a gap where the water can come out?

Just lift the water container off the base and turn the water reservoir over so that the underside is now facing up. Remove the screw cap and fill the reservoir with water. The screw cap should be contoured with vertical ridges for extra grip. Hope that helps.

Water has to be filled in reservoir. And to avoid calcium build up use distilled water.

Yes,You fill it with water up to the fill line (about half way). This allows the carbon dioxide from the fermentation to escape while preventing outside air to come in contact with your brew.

Yes, there is a threaded connection between the sprinkling head and the spout, so it can be removed.

Yes. After filling the tank and inserting it into the base, water will fill the base.
