Nut/ring that goes inside cover and holds glass knob on top of cover has disappeared from our model MEU 45 coffee maker. Is it possible to get this part/piece, or one that might be similar and that will work? Or would entire lid need to be replaced. Thanks.

To descale the coffee maker, it is recommended to use a liquid descaling agent which is labelled as suitable for coffee machines.

What is espresso?

Espresso is a small amount of concentrated coffee.

How long can I keep coffee beans?

The best-before date can be found on the packaging of the coffee beans. This best-before date applies as long as the bag is closed.

What is the best way to store coffee?

It is recommended to store coffee in an airtight and clean container.

What does the grind say about the taste of the coffee?

How do I clean and maintain the Melitta MEU45 coffee maker?

To clean and maintain the Melitta MEU45 coffee maker, follow these steps: 1. After each use and before washing, unplug the power cord from the wall outlet and allow the unit to cool. 2. Carefully remove the cover and all internal parts. Be cautious as the parts, coffee grounds, and remaining coffee may still be hot. 3. Wash the inside of the coffee urn and the parts with warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and dry. Do not immerse the base of the coffee urn in water. 4. The pump tube (with spring), basket spreader, and cover with the glass knob can be washed in the dishwasher. When washing the pump tube, ensure that the washer on the bottom remains loose. If there are coffee grounds trapped in this area, hold the pump tube under running water or use a wooden toothpick to remove them. 5. Periodically, clean the glass knob using a non-abrasive cleanser. Rinse and dry it with a towel. To replace the glass knob after cleaning, align the tabs on the glass knob with the notches in the hole of the cover and screw on the nut. Tighten the nut using your hands only, without over-tightening or placing it on while hot. 6. Wipe the outside of the coffee maker with a damp cloth and dry it with a towel. Remove the urn cover before storing. 7. If there are coffee stains or accumulation of oils causing a bitter taste, use a coffee-stain remover or special cleanser (such as "Dip-it") following the package directions for cleaning. Rinse well after cleaning. Avoid using abrasive cleansers or pads on the outside, inside, or any parts of the coffee urn to prevent scratching. 8. Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be performed by a qualified appliance repair technician. Remember, if any parts are missing or defective, do not return the product. Instead, contact the Customer Service Department for assistance.

Why is the coffee not brewing properly in the Melitta MEU45 coffee maker?

Refer to the provided chart in the manual for the recommended amount of coffee based on the number of cups. 5. Place the basket on the pump tube and cover it with the spreader.
