I picked up one of these from a rummage sale for 3 bucks, and after I got it home the coffee tasted like shit and the clean light remained illuminated. This lead me searching and then to this video. I ran through this routine and changed out the charcoal water filter and now its performing like a boss, so THANK YOU! Best 3 dollar coffee pot ever.
Thanks! I had this in a furnished rental. My guests told me it was broken. So I bought a new one. But I brought the new one home to see if it just needed a cleaning. Yep! Thanks for the help. Now I have a nice spare.
Thank you for this!! I’ve left my coffee maker sitting on the counter for months and needed a straightforward tutorial on cleaning it. This video was perfect!😊
I have this video saved. I keep coming back to it just to make sure that I do the cleaning process correctly. I appreciate your efforts. Thanks for sharing.
This video was very thorough and helpful. I know I have done the cleaning cycle in the past, but wasn't sure how much vinegar to use now that it's time to clean it again.
You are so welcome! Thanks for Taking the time to leave such a nice and positive feedback!!!! What is your favorite coffee? I like dunkin Donuts medium roast right now.
Excellent video, much easier to watch your video than to dig out the instruction manual. this is the second time I've cleaned mine , I'm assuming i'll remember come my third cleaning... but if not, your video has been saved on my desktop - Thank you!
Appreciate you taking the time to show us what it takes. Amazing how many helpful people there are despite what they try and get you to believe on TV. ✌️💖
I have the coffee matter. After I run the clean feature, I turn the whole maker, without the pot, upside down. This will allow more water & some scaling type minerals to drain out
Thank you for your very concise video. I did it wrong before I looked you up...didn’t remove the water filter. I have a reusable mesh type filter in ours - should I leave that in during the cleaning process? I’m thinking I should so that can be cleaned as well?
Thanks! I forgot how to do it, and I don't know where my manual is. By the way, thanks to Bidenomics, vinegar is a lot more now. I love this coffee pot and I am looking forward to my next post-clean, cup of coffee.
Hi. Just got the machine. Looks very nice. Thank you for the very informative video how to clean. Well, mine is a new machine and I still use vinegar to wash it before I use it. Thank you very much for sharing your video.
If you want to know for sure if all the vinegars washed out all you do is add a little cream into the water if it curdles you still at vinegar left in there just thought that's a nice little fact for you to know
Thanks for the video. After close to 10 years, ours is so clogged that it can't get through a cleaning cycle without a steady alarm tone going off and stopping the process. I can see some minerals coming out of the top dispenser that goes into the coffee filter bucket. Need to find a way to take this thing apart and clean it.
Just ran into the same problem with the alarm going off. I unplugged it for 5 minutes to see if it would resolve but not such luck. Then I took the coffee maker over to the sink and turned it upside down and could not believe all the debris that came out of the "top dispenser" as you called it. Since the cycle never completed there was still vinegar in the reservoir and inside the machine. I rinsed out the top dispenser area with water. I was able to run cycles through with no alarm! I always put a paper filter in the basket during a clean to see that all debris has been removed.
Helpful video, however I've cleaned mines about 3 times and the cleaning light just keeps coming back on, what do I do? Should I just unplug the machine and plug back in?
My coffee maker clean light stays on and when I try to push it to get the clean started nothing happens in the display window and it doesn't start to clean. Help!
I bought one of these coffee makers because of his videos, DON'T waste your money, two weeks after I got this machine so I followed the instruction in this video and two hours the clean light came back on so I unplugged it, made 1 pot of coffee and the clean light came back on again, then this piece of crap start making 3 cup on a ten cup fill, then it started leaking park of the water on the counter, I went through this exact procedure 3 times on a Saturday still 3 cup on a ten cup fill DON'T waste you time, money it will only make your blood pressure go up and late for work, better buy a $15.00 Walmart closeout special it will work way better the MR. Crappy
I thought I might find a solution to why mine stopped working after 7 years. It sounds like it's going to brew and after you hear a slight suction it stops. the light stays on but no water comes out. Always a sad day when you coffee pot stops working. :(
Yes even bottled water has minerals in it. you need minerals in you water for your coffee maker and the coffee to taste correct. Only Distilled water does not have minerals in it and that is why you are not suppose to use distilled water. Bottled water is just fine to use since it still has some minerals in it. Is won't need to be cleaned as often but it still will need to be descaled.

You are so welcome!
Can cleaning vinegar be used?
Excellent 👍😊. Thank you
So nice of you
Thank you for your very concise video. I did it wrong before I looked you up...didn’t remove the water filter. I have a reusable mesh type filter in ours - should I leave that in during the cleaning process? I’m thinking I should so that can be cleaned as well?
That would be fine, after you are done I would wash it with soap and water just to give it one last cleaning.
Thanks! I forgot how to do it, and I don't know where my manual is. By the way, thanks to Bidenomics, vinegar is a lot more now. I love this coffee pot and I am looking forward to my next post-clean, cup of coffee.

Thank you for this informative video. If I unplug my coffee maker, will I have to reset my timer?
Why does mine make a shrill noise

You are welcome!
Great video. Thanks for your help. We have had issues with a leaking pot. Ideas to solve?
Where is it leaking, where the black plastic connects to the steal part?
Tenho que usar um filtro para fazer café ?
If you want to know for sure if all the vinegars washed out all you do is add a little cream into the water if it curdles you still at vinegar left in there just thought that's a nice little fact for you to know

@@todayisavacation just did the upside down trick and yeah a lotta white scale ...trying the clean cycle again 🤞
Thank you!
Tks , this video help me , 👏👏
Glad I could help!
Helpful video, however I've cleaned mines about 3 times and the cleaning light just keeps coming back on, what do I do? Should I just unplug the machine and plug back in?
My coffee pot is chipping on the inside. Should I just replace is or there a way to clean it out?
I would probably replace it. Is it the stainless steel inside that is chipping or the plastic?
Does this process clean the water tank before it runs through the machine?
yes a little
Can I use paper filter and what is the best place to put the red thing on the filter lid
after the cleaning cycle is finished, use the vinegar to clean your dishwasher.
Ok thanks!
How can I take apart and reassemble the carafe cap?
There should be a o-ring or plastic washer you can remove and it should come apart.
My coffee maker clean light stays on and when I try to push it to get the clean started nothing happens in the display window and it doesn't start to clean. Help!
Mine started with the 45 min. Then started setting off a high pitched ringing .... Any idea?
Why can't I leave the mesh filter in when I run the clean cycle? Will it damage the mesh filter?
No, its just another part that will need cleaned after you are done, thats all.
Can coffee pot go in dishwasher
Why don't you put the coffee filter (not the paper filter) in with the strainer for cleaning ?
You don't really have to but it would catch any hard water deposits
I bought one of these coffee makers because of his videos, DON'T waste your money, two weeks after I got this machine so I followed the instruction in this video and two hours the clean light came back on so I unplugged it, made 1 pot of coffee and the clean light came back on again, then this piece of crap start making 3 cup on a ten cup fill, then it started leaking park of the water on the counter, I went through this exact procedure 3 times on a Saturday still 3 cup on a ten cup fill DON'T waste you time, money it will only make your blood pressure go up and late for work, better buy a $15.00 Walmart closeout special it will work way better the MR.

Great instructional video by the way.
If you only use bottled water in the coffee maker, is it still necessary to descale the coffee maker??
Yes even bottled water has minerals in it. you need minerals in you water for your coffee maker and the coffee to taste correct. Only Distilled water does not have minerals in it and that is why you are not suppose to use distilled water. Bottled water is just fine to use since it still has some minerals in it. Is won't need to be cleaned as often but it still will need to be descaled.
Descaling with vinegar also kills bacteria and mold. Food for thought.
Pushing clean button but does not start cleaning
did you push the brew button also.
This could have been a 2 minute video.
Thanks for watching
Great through video! Thanks so much!
You are so welcome!
Great video thank you!
My pleasure!
Thanks
