FAQ

Why is the hot brew or over ice button flashing?
Please wait until the button is no longer flashing before brewing your cup of coffee.

Why is my milk not frothing?

• Make sure your whisk is properly inserted at the bottom of your frothing jar.
• Ensure you're not adding milk past the latte/cappuccino line in the frothing jar.
• Try using a different kind or brand of milk. My iced or hot coffee isn't strong enough for my taste – what now?
• Try adding an extra 1/2-1 scoop of coffee grounds.
• Try using finer coffee grounds.
• Try selecting the "OVER ICE" setting for Hot Coffee, as this pre-infuses the coffee for best extraction.

Is the tumbler dishwasher safe?

No, the tumbler, lid and straw should be hand-washed only.

Why is there no ice left in my cup after brewing iced coffee?
Try using bigger ice cubes when making your iced coffee – these will melt slower and give you ice in your drink for longer! Also be sure you have filled your tumbler all the way to the "ICE" marking.

Why are there coffee grounds in my coffee?

You may have over-filled your reusable coffee filter with coffee grounds, and they could have spilled over the top. Although this is uncommon, try using a little less grounds next time and that should solve this problem! Decaf coffee can also cause grounds to spill over the top, try using a little less grounds next time. Using a paper filter inside of the permanent filter can also cause grounds to spill over the top.

Can I use a different tumbler or cup for making iced coffee?
Sure thing! Just ensure you keep the same ratio of water-ground-ice to create the best tasting iced coffee!

Why does my coffeemaker continue to drip after the light turns off?
Using paper filters can cause dripping to continue for longer. We suggest using the included nylon filter.
