Use less water, or more coffee. And it really does take out the bitterness.

You need to buy the Nespresso brand of pods. I had one of these machines but it did not keep the coffee hot enough. It was just sort of warm... I sent it back.

Well...You are welcome...and Congratulations on figuring it out...I strongly suggest pre-warming the carafe with hot water before brewing. That's the only way we get hot coffee from the carafe. ENJOY! Heck, I think I'll go make myself a cup of coffee.

The coffee is hot enough. I had two of these units fail on me, however. (Which is too bad because I really liked them while they worked.)

The coffee is hot when brewed but after five or so minutes sitting on the warmer, it is not as hot. I usually nuke my second cup.

I myself have no problem with the coffee temperature. I always warm up the coffee cup with hot water first, dump out the hot water, then make the coffee. Easy breezy.

Try (with the aid of a dishtowel) tipping it upside down onto a coffee basket filter in your sink; this lets you pour out any excess water still in the chamber and easily remove the basket while hot, but keeps the grounds inside the filter and easy to dispose of. Works for me if I want to clean it while it's hot. If I can wait 20-30 minutes for it to cool off a little, I just lift it up with a fingernail.

Yes, any source of heat will work ...If the heat is too high, coffee may have a burnt taste. Getting the optimum temperature for brewing may take some trial and error.

Just add more coffee or get stronger coffee. We use different kinds of coffees. This has been perfect for us! Hope this kind of helped in some way!

It sounds like you are either not using enough coffee, or you are using a filter, which is not needed. It takes at least 6 heaping tablespoons of coffee.

Have you tried extra bold or french roast coffee. That is what I have done, but I am only using a 12 oz cup.

Regular ground coffee works good. Take out plunger...put in coffee...( I use 4 scoops ) ....carefully pour in hot water up to the top chrome of the handle...... replace plunger pushing down halfway then pull back up to top of water.....wait for coffee to steep.... 8 or so minutes....push plunger all the way down.....and pour into favorite mug. Enjoy !

More than likely your milk is not hot and cools off the espresso. I have had that problem too. You need to keep steaming for almost 2 mins to get it hot.

Either the coffee is already cooled offm or you haven't got the milk hot enough. Quick test if milk is hot enough is to lightly touch the side of the stesming cup if it is too hot to touch it's hot enough.

Only solution I've found is don't fill all the way to the top which effectively makes it a 10.5 cup coffee maker. Otherwise just make sure lid is attached correctly

I do not see how you could....maybe scoot it down? I don't use mine anymore because it didn't keep coffee hot.
