The pipes are blocked with build up scale or water dirt. You can try to descale the machine by adding in the water half cup of lemon juice and brew it without coffee leave if for 20 min and the clean it by brew it with fresh water these will make a diference then try this again in a week.

    If it's real bad, kinda sounds like it is..try vinegar/water (I do 4 cups vinegar & 1 cup water) Aprox..If that doesn't do the trick go & pick up a jug of CLR or Limeaway.

Our office has a Gevalia Deluxe coffeemaker. It

Most likely the cycle thermostat that turns off the heating element has failed. It is supposed to reset after the it senses the water temp below 130 deg. If it did not reset or has failed it will not turn on the heating element but the clock will work fine.

By the time you ship the unit to a repair center with parts and labor and get it returned to you the cost would be as much as a new unit.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Coffee maker is not pumping water fast enough. takes over a minute to brew a 8 oz. cup. pumps water real slow.

have you tried cleaning it? Minerals from the water build up inside the tubing and make it run slow. Take a pot full of white vinegar and run it through a brew cycle. follow this by a couple of pots of cold water and you should be good to go.

More Steam Less Coffee

I had same problem after 4 months. very slow brew time, 10 cups of water poured in made about 6 cups of coffee. I used a packaged coffee pot cleaner powder and this fixed the problem (for now).
