FAQs

How often should I descale my Moccamaster?

Descale every 1-3 months, depending on your water hardness. Use a descaling solution specifically for coffee makers.

Can I use reusable filters?

Yes, you can use reusable filters, but they should be designed for drip coffee makers and fit the filter basket properly.

What kind of coffee should I use?

Use pre-ground coffee suitable for drip coffee makers. The KBG Select is not compatible with whole beans or a built-in grinder.

How long does the keep-warm function work?

The hotplate keeps coffee warm for approximately 40 minutes, after which the machine automatically shuts off.

What if the coffee maker is not brewing?

Check if the machine has water. Ensure the filter is in place, and the coffee grounds are not packed too tightly. Make sure the coffee maker is turned on.

What is the warranty period?

The Moccamaster KBG Select comes with a 12-month guarantee.

How do I clean the carafe?

Wash the carafe with warm, soapy water after each use. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Use more coffee grounds or try the Select switch for smaller batches.
