To descale the Korona 10401 Coffee Maker, fill the water reservoir with a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar. Run a brewing cycle without coffee grounds. After the cycle, run two cycles with clean water to rinse.
Ensure the coffee maker is plugged into a functioning electrical outlet. Check the power switch and ensure it is in the "on" position. If the coffee maker still doesn't turn on, inspect the power cord for damages.
Both the carafe and filter basket are dishwasher safe. Alternatively, you can wash them by hand using warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry before reassembling.
Ensure you are not overfilling the filter basket with coffee grounds and that the basket is properly seated. Use medium-coarse coffee grounds to reduce the risk of overflow.
Press the "Program" button until the display shows the clock symbol. Use the hour and minute buttons to set the desired brewing time. Confirm the time setting by pressing the "Program" button again.
Check the coffee-to-water ratio. You might be using too much water or too few coffee grounds. Ensure the filter basket is positioned correctly and that you’re using fresh coffee beans.
Examine the water reservoir for cracks and ensure it is seated properly. Check the carafe is positioned correctly under the brew basket. Inspect the brew basket and water flow valve for blockages.
Yes, you can use the coffee maker to brew tea by placing tea bags in the filter basket and running a brewing cycle with water only. Clean after use to prevent flavor crossover.
Regularly descale your coffee maker, clean the carafe and filter basket after each use, and ensure all parts are dry before storage. Avoid using harsh chemicals for cleaning.
Ensure the coffee maker is on a flat, stable surface. Check for any blockages in the water flow system. Descale the machine to remove any mineral buildup that may cause noise.
