All About Coffee Makers
Sometimes coffee makers (as nearly everything) get broken for no
apparent reason. When everything seems to be ok on the outside,
then the problem must be on the inside, so here are some tips to
help you identify the most common problems and, if you are
lucky, repair your coffee maker yourself.
Problem: The coffee maker does not turn on. Symptoms: Light on
the coffee maker does not lit, there are no sounds coming from
it, and it never heats up. Possible causes and solutions: This
may be caused by a burnt fuse, a defective power cord or
something more important. If your coffee maker has a fuse and it
is burnt then replace it, but always do it with the same type
and rate of fuse, to avoid the chance of more severe problems.
If you find no fuse, plug your coffee maker to a different
outlet, just to be sure this is not the cause.
If it still does not work, replace the power cord (you can do it
yourself if you are careful and know the basic electrical
concepts, but if you don't want to do it yourself you can ask a
professional to do it). If, after replacing the cord with a new
one, it still does not work, contact a coffee maker repairer.
Problem: The coffee maker is turned on but you are not getting
any coffee. Symptoms: The maker is on and heats up, but hot
water is not coming out.
Possible causes and solutions: The tubes may be clogged.
Sometimes water leaves calcium and other mineral residues on the
tubes, clogging them after a while. Try using your coffee maker
with vinegar instead of water. If it unclogs, run water through
your coffee maker a minimum of three times, in order to wash out
the vinegar.
Problem: The coffee maker is turned on but you get only dirty
cold water instead of coffee. Symptoms: The maker sucks water
and pours it onto the coffee, but this water is cold.
Possible causes and solutions: The heating coil of your coffee
maker may be dead or dying. Unfortunately, there is nothing you
can do, as replacement coils are extremely difficult to find and
install. Consider buying a new coffee maker.
