Cannot find an 8 cup !!

Since the maker is less than 6 months old, you should try to get a warranty replacement.

Hi,
mix half white vinegar and water together...then pour this solution in just as you would if you were making coffe....minus the coffe grounds of course... then run it through a cycle and then run clear water through again... and you will be good to go...do this once a month or so to keep it working great...

What are the simptoms? Once you pour the water and add the coffee it should start when you press the coffee button.

on my 12 cup kitchenaid coffee maker, i can press and hold the Auto button to enable/disable the alarm

if you have water out brewing without handle with coffee, than you check this 3 things:

1. how fine is grinded the coffe, is it too fine for your machine?
2. does pump make enough pressure to brew your coffee(you can measure if you attach an gauge to handle or steam pipe.
3. by any chance your boiler security valve opens too soon and dont let pump to get the needed pressure. (perfect pressure is from 7 to 9 bar)
   

It's probably time for a good cleaning. Follow the procedure in the manual, or get some commercially available coffee maker cleaner. When the minerals build up enough, the water flow and heating is reduced enough to keep it all from passing through.

Please take a moment to rate this solution if it's what you needed, and thanks for asking here!

An ERR 2 may be cleared by a simple reset of the coffee maker. This means unplugging the unit and plugging it back in. When powered back on, select a brew function to see if the error reappears.

If the code does reappear, ERR 2 indicates an internal error with the computer of the warming plate. This may be covered under Kitchenaid's 1 Year Hassle Free Warranty. I would advise you to call Kitchenaid Customer Service to see what options are available to you. Repair is not recommended, as it is not cost effective for the company or the consumer.
