Another thing that I have discovered is that anytime I had a filter collapse it would be at the "twelve o'clock" side of the circle when looking at it head on. Coffee based on the above and you will see that I am correct. just remember to hand push the arm all the way and do not just allow the closing of the cover and the built-in "cam" to do it for you, because it does not. It can be pushed by hand another 3/16 of an inch. Coffee is that the "cam" that swings the "faucet arm" into the middle of the filter does not swing it all the way. I noticed recently after years and years of owning a Mr. Otherwise, google Bunn filters, they are all taller because the inventor of drip coffee, Mr Bunn designed tall filters with flat bottom. Third, you can McGuiver anything if you’re in a pinch or you are stuck with 10,000 shorter filters. Making 6 or 8 cups instead of 10 will work with shorter filter. Either buy taller filters or use less coffee/water. When I use my shorter filters in my taller funnel it overflows a little with too much coffee/water. Some have cone bottom some have flat bottom and they are shorter or taller. Look for medium grind for drip, fine grind for espresso and coarse grind for 24 hour cold brew. First, too fine grind expands like a sponge when hot water hits it and overflows. I can share with resounding experience some tips. I am old and I have 6 different makers, different styles etc. What’s more fun than reading about coffee maker issues back to 2015 while resting from thanksgiving. We currently have a cheaper Mr.Coffee and even the lid is so light it cannot put enough pressure on the basket to hold it down.īUNN filters are taller (Walmart sells them) I have noticed that with plastic getting thinner and lighter the carafe tends to push up the entire basket assembly vs just the pause and serve valve especially brewing less coffee which does not add enough weight to basket to keep basket in place. In one case I simply had to remove the pause and serve valve in order to allow a better brew flow. This is especially true if you are brewing a full pot of coffee and many coffee makers even caution the if you get a serving of coffee mid brew be careful not to remove carafe too long or the basket may overflow. I have noticed some coffee makers seem to have problems either with the basket not being properly positioned or the carafe doesn't strike the pause and serve valve enough to open it. In my experience the pause and serve valve may not open enough allowing a good flow of coffee while brewing.
