A Hamilton Beach BrewStation is a coffee maker that brews coffee and dispenses the coffee directly into travel mugs or a coffee cup. The unit does not use a traditional glass carafe --- instead, it holds the coffee in a warming tank and allows users to dispense the coffee one serving at a time. Available for purchase online or in select department or home retail stores, the BrewStation should operate well with normal care and maintenance. Nevertheless, if problems occur, some troubleshooting may be effective in helping you resolve the problem. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Make sure the BrewStation is completely plugged into a working power outlet if the unit is not working. Press "On" once the reservoir has been filled with water and there is ground coffee in the filter basket.
2. Turn off the BrewStation and pour 2 cups of vinegar into the water reservoir if the coffee maker is leaking, "Clean" appears in the display panel or the brewed coffee does not taste good. Press "On" and wait 20 seconds. Press "Off" and wait an additional 30 minutes. Press "On" again and let the coffee maker brew the vinegar through the system. Empty and rinse out the water reservoir with clean water and dispense until there is no lingering scent of vinegar.
3. Set the coffee maker to "Automatic Drip Grind" if the coffee does not taste good or there are coffee grounds in the brewed coffee. Adjust the coffee-to-water ratio, and use bottled or filtered water for improved taste.
4. Reduce the amount of ground coffee used if the coffee is overflowing. Make sure only one paper filter is placed in the filter basket. Adjust the grind setting to "Automatic Drip Grind" to ensure the coffee is ground correctly.
5. Pour water into the reservoir if the device is beeping constantly or "Pour Water" appears on the display.
6. Turn the coffee maker back on or brew a new cycle of coffee if the coffee is cold when dispensed. Adjust the amount of time the unit automatically keeps the coffee warm by pressing the "Keep Warm Hours" button to one, two, three or four hours.
