The Coffee Taste is Unsatisfactory

You may need to adjust grinding or temperature settings. After trying the suggested adjustments if you are still experiencing unsatisfactory taste we recommend changing the type of coffee you are using.

The coffee is too bitter.

• The grinding setting or the pre-ground coffee is too fine. Adjust the grinding level to a coarser setting. Watch the video for a tutorial on adjusting this setting.

The coffee is too acidic.

• The grinding setting or the pre-ground coffee is too coarse. Watch the video to learn how to adjust the grinding level to a finer setting.

The coffee tastes burnt.

• The brewing temperature is too high and must be reduced. Please refer to your owner's manual to learn how to reduce the temperature.
• The coffee grinds are too fine. Adjust the grinding level to a coarser setting. Watch the video to learn how.

The coffee is too weak.

• Use stronger coffee beans.
• The ground coffee may also be jammed in the coffee drawer. Remove the coffee drawer. Rinse under running water and dry thoroughly.

The coffee does not taste fresh.

• Old beans are being used. Replace the old beans with fresh beans. The coffee taste will change after 2 brewing cycles since old beans may still be in the grinding unit.
