Coffee grinds in

Using the gold tone filter. The gold tone filter will allow some
fine coffee grinds to fall into the
coffee. This is normal. Switch to
using a paper filter (8-12 cup, flat
base basket style with ~ 3¼”/8.25cm
base) if you wish to eliminate all
grinds.
Coffee basket has not
been properly cleaned.
Residual grinds from
previous use.
After each use, wash the coffee
basket, taking particular care to
rinse the chute area. Dry thoroughly
(especially the chute area). Ensure
there are no grinds in the coffee
basket before lining the coffee
basket with the gold tone or paper
filter.

is clogged.
This can occur for a number of
reasons:

ensure it is a drip coffee grind
and not too fine. Never use

Check that the coffee basket is
lined with only one paper filter.
Check that either the gold tone
filter or the paper filter is used.
Do not use both together.
Check that the gold tone filter
