  If your amzchef Coffee Maker isn't dispensing water, there might be a few reasons. First, ensure the water tank has an adequate amount of water. If it does, check that the water tank is correctly placed. If water still isn't flowing after operation, or if the coffee maker has been idle, add water to the tank, reinstall it, and use the hot water function once. Also, the steam outlet may be blocked; try clearing it with a thin iron wire.

Why is my amzchef CM1666 Coffee Maker producing less steam?

  If your amzchef Coffee Maker is producing less steam, ensure that you've pressed the 'Steam button' and waited for the indicator light to stop flashing and remain on. Also, make sure you're not starting the steam function when the coffee machine is cold; try using the double cups coffee brewing function first or wait for preheating to finish in Steam mode before frothing milk. Finally, check that the 'steam knob' is rotated to the maximum position, slowly unscrewing it until steam appears.

What to do if the coffee is brewed slowly or in small quantities in amzchef Coffee Maker?

  Stephanie AllenAug 20, 2025
  If your amzchef Coffee Maker is brewing coffee slowly or in small quantities, it could be due to several factors. Ensure you are not using too much coffee powder and that the coffee powder is of standard quality and quantity, not too crude or too fine. Also, the coffee powder should be espresso machine special coffee powder and cannot be too fine. If there is no water in the boiler, turn the steam knob to the appropriate position to let the water flow out of the steam pipe.

  If the funnel overflows with coffee in your amzchef Coffee Maker, ensure the machine has completely cooled down after frothing milk before making coffee. Additionally, after filling the ground coffee, clean any coffee powder from the edge of the funnel using a brush or by hand.

Why is there less grease in my amzchef Coffee Maker?
- C
  Claudia MillerSep 1, 2025
  If you're experiencing less grease with your amzchef Coffee Maker, the coffee powder may be too coarse; consider replacing it. Also, ensure the coffee powder is compacted with appropriate pressure. Finally, make sure the coffee machine is completely cooled before using if you have just frothed milk.

Why is the coffee from my amzchef CM1666 too cold?
- S
  Shaun WatsonSep 5, 2025
  If the coffee from your amzchef Coffee Maker is too cold, ensure you are brewing coffee in high temperature mode. Also, avoid brewing coffee in a cold state before the machine is preheated; operate the double cups coffee brewing function without coffee powder or wait for preheating to finish in coffee mode before brewing.

What to do if single or double-cup strainer stuck in the amzchef Coffee Maker?
- T
  tvaughnSep 9, 2025
  If the single or double-cup strainer is stuck in your amzchef Coffee Maker, it may be because the bump of the strainer is not far from the funnel notch. To resolve this, insert the funnel into the machine and turn it left and right until the strainer falls down.
