Wolfgang Puck 7 cup Coffee Maker

by Brian Forth
(Toronto, Ontario, Canada)

Although I agree that the Wolfgang Puck Coffee maker has several great features it also has a few shortcomings.

1. The stainless steel carafe is super since breakage is almost impossible and being double walled it keeps the coffee hot longer than your typical carafe, but 7 cup capacity is hardly enough if you have company.

2. The water chamber is not sealed well and leaks if you overfill it even by just a little or are not extremely careful when pouring the water in. It also tends to leak while brewing from time to time.

3. The built in grinder is a nice feature although I did wake up to hot water one morning when the grounds clogged up the delivery chute.

4. Do we really need to have the constant beep while the top is open. This feature can be annoying while you are filling the water reservoir or if you have taken the grinder parts out to clean them. Maybe if the beeping was by-passed unless the coffee maker was actually turned on or the timer set.

All in all I would still recommend this product to family and friends.

leaking tank
by: Brian Forth

Solved the problem with the water tank leaking. There is a small hole located just above the full line on the front side of the tank. I plugged that hole with a stainless steel nut and bolt with rubber and stainless steel washers on both sides of the hole.

Worst Coffee Ever!
by: Anonymous

We just got the WP coffeemaker installed in our office and everyone hates it. Even when you use a stronger blend pod and set the maker on bold, the coffee is still weak and leaves an unpleasant aftertaste. Instant coffee has a better flavor. We are all upset and want our old coffee maker back. I'm not faulting the machine, just the coffee itself. Don't know how anyone can mess that up with so much good coffee around.

The beeping
by: John

The User Guide tells you to wash the grinder chamber and cap in warm soapy water and then dry. Avoid use of harsh detergents, etc.

That is, it doesn't explicitly say to not put them in the dishwasher, but by doing them quickly by hand, the sooner the cap gets back in place to shut off the beeper, the better.

I've given up using the built-in grinder because of the cleanup hassle.

Never thought about the hard-to-turn rotating wheel under the lid. Not mentioned in the User Guide. I see it's numbered 1 -30.
Maybe it's for reminding you of the day of the month you put in a fresh water filter. Not that the filter would do much - I gave up on that as well.

So now I can just grumble about the water chamber leaking.

Got it Cheap at Home Depot, Stupid Beeper
by: Buck

Home Depot was selling it off cheap. Last one, no box, no instructions. What on earth is the wheel inside the lid that you turn for? It has numbers around it. Shut up the stupid beeping when the grinder etc is in the dishwasher. I am trying to find the beeper to cut the wires to it. I have no idea why anyone would want this beeper?

Other than that, it makes good coffee and it says hot.

Where can I find this
by: Jason

It seems like a good coffee maker, but it does not seems to be available in the retail outlets here. So, would like to know where can I find this machine?

Better quality control needed, and customer service
by: Anonymous

Yes, the water chamber does leak but not consistently. In our case the leak is on the left hand side near the front. Have emailed the company with a question months ago about the LED fogging up, but have received no reply. Have given up using the grinder because of difficulty cleaning it after every use.
