Frequently Asked Questions - 15010 KORONA

How do I descale my Korona 15010 coffee maker?

Mix equal parts water and white vinegar or use a commercial descaling solution. Fill the water tank, run a brew cycle without coffee, then rinse by running two cycles with fresh water.

Why is my coffee not hot enough?

Ensure the carafe is properly placed on the warming plate. The warming plate may need cleaning; also, preheat the carafe with hot water before brewing.

Can I use a permanent filter?

Yes, you can use a reusable #4 cone-shaped permanent filter instead of paper filters. Clean it after each use.

What should I do if the coffee maker leaks?

Check that the water tank lid is closed properly and the carafe is correctly positioned. Examine the anti-drip valve for blockages. Clean if necessary.

How do I clean the carafe?

Wash the glass carafe with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Rinse thoroughly. The carafe is dishwasher safe on top rack.

Why does brewing stop prematurely?

This may indicate mineral buildup. Descale the machine. Also check if the water tank is empty or if the filter basket is overfilled.

How many cups does the 15010 make?

It has a 10-cup capacity (1.25 liters). A cup is typically 125 ml.

What type of coffee grounds should I use?

Use medium-ground drip coffee. Too fine may clog the filter; too coarse may result in weak coffee.

Does the machine have an auto shut-off?

Yes, it automatically turns off after 1 hour of keeping the coffee warm for safety.

Where can I find spare parts?

Spare parts like the carafe, filter basket, and water tank are available from the manufacturer's website or authorized dealers.
