Brand new Nescafe Dolce-Gusto Circolo...leaking.... Hi guys - has anyone else had this problem?

Mine is leaking the coffee from bottom when brewing. I can foresee more leaking problems in near future. I only had it for a few weeks too.

The unit I received was missing one of the o-rings on the water tank (there should be two), and was leaking immediately. After receiving a replacement from De'Longhi I haven't had any leakage. The bitter taste is probably due to the coffee grounds you are using...

I sent this coffee maker back..it leaks water or coffee all over..I read this in the comments and bought it anyway. They were right and I should have taken them seriously. Not having the coffee maker anymore I can't advise on the cup but I will warn u against buying it.. A word to the wise should be sufficient.

I dont think it is normal, but i hear this particular item has this flaw compared to other models. I started to double check the rubber ring and the lid for any food debris left, and normally the leaking didnt happen. Hope you try that.

Hello,I had the same problem, THREE TIMES!!!!!!!!! All three went back! There seems to be a glitch with the machine. Here is what to do.1st make sure it says no water and you do have water. 1nd, return it to the place where you bought it and complain. If that is not possible call NESCAFE Hot line from 8am to 8pm EST. Tell them the problem and demand that they fix it. They will send you a return address label (no charge to you AND INSIST ON THAT!) and box it up and wait for the label. When it comes (it make take a week or so to come by e-mail), box it up and wait until it is repaired. THEY KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM, SO THEY SHOULD REPAIR OR REPLACE!!!!!!!!! INSIST THAT THEY FIX IT!

You guessed it! Finer grounds and just keep packing it into the portafilter. I was having the same issue, it looked more like a cappuccino than an espresso. I'm using a different scoop from the one that came with the machine. After an initial scoopfull, I keep sprinkling more coffee in there, and give it a tamp until it's right to the rim. I'm also being careful to clean the gasket after each time I use the machine. Good luck!

Try filling the basket to the top and litely pack grounds down with the tamper.Are you using the finest grind of expresso? If the grind is to large can cause the problem.I have had mine for a year now an from day one it was great,what impressed me mostwas the amount of crema you get on each and every cup. I think the design of the basketis the reason for all the crema.One more think,every now and then wipe the screen where the basket and machine meet.

I am not sure, but I am having a similar problem also mattres has been fine in every way holding air and firm, but in the past two days it keeps looking air similar to yours leaking on one side and eventually goes down completely. Guess we both need to figure it out unfortunately cause I really like it a lot.

Nope. I've owned three, zero leaks. Could it be overfilled? If you can verify the leak (maybe from a line?) I'd send it back. Good luck!

Something must be wrong with it, I've never had any bad tastes with any of the bottles that I've purchased. Maybe contact seller about a replacement.

I would recommend soaking the lid in vinegar for awhile, and i have even cleaned the float valve (? - circular stop valve) w/ q-tips -- clean that area out really well. I would also recommend highly to use coffee filters vs. the reuable gold filter. Once i cleaned and used disposible filters -- it stopped the leaking. Good luck to you~!

Sounds like you need to return it. There is some steam but it doesn't affect my coffee. I love the machine by the way. I've started using organic half and half and buying more expensive cafe. I've recently tried/enjoyed espresso from trader Joe's & juan valdez.

No! That is absolutely NOT normal. It must have leaked (this happened to me once). Contact the company through amazon and they will send you a refund. They need to figure out a better way to ship these bottles to prevent leakage!!

Mine leaks too! I used it once (so far) and the liquid stared to leak right on out. I just contacted the seller and am waiting to hear back. I don't know if the one piece jar is such a good idea. ugh

I would call the Company, I have one and it has done really good. I have had mine for about two years and love it. I use it every day, I make all my coffee and tea with the water and that is the only water I drink. I hope you can get it fixed. Wish I could have been more help.

I had one of these for a while and it was a bit of a pest. Eventually started leaking so I disposed of it. I'm sorry you are having trouble with the Keurig Vue. Keurig has a new machine called the RIVO that looks really cool but I've had no actual experience with it.I've switched to Nespresso and highly recommend it instead. Many more coffee types and pretty good quality machines (above Pixie model). Pixie tends to have leaking troubles but models above Pixie are very good. Hope this helps.
