  Your Oster Coffee Maker might not be brewing due to several reasons: the appliance may be unplugged (plug it in), there could be a power outage (wait for the power to be restored), the water reservoir might be empty (check the water level), the filter basket might not be properly inserted (insert it correctly), or the decanter might not be placed correctly on the warming plate (place the decanter correctly).

What to do if my Oster BVST-RDXSS43 Coffee Maker filter basket overflows?

  If the filter basket of your Oster Coffee Maker is overflowing, it could be due to several reasons. Ensure the filter basket is properly inserted. Check that the decanter is correctly placed on the warming plate and that the lid is on the decanter. If too many coffee grounds were placed in the filter, remove the filter, discard the grounds, and replace if it's a paper filter or rinse if it's a permanent filter before beginning the brewing process again. Also, if the decanter was removed from the warming plate for more than 30 seconds, turn off and unplug the unit, allow it to cool, and wipe up any spills. Do not place the hot decanter back on the wet warming plate, as it might crack.
