Yes..after I got my new coffee pot I wasn't sure how much to put in if it worked different etc...the first pot I made smelled so good but was much to weak..I really don't drink it very often though...just when I have company!

Yes that is what happened with this one. But we got it to where we make good coffee but every now and then my roommate makes weak coffee. Now mine is good or to srtong. But if he would stop changing what kind of coffee that would help. You have a good day. Your friend onlydia

Nope not I. I have forgotten the grounds so I guess that would be considered weak huh? I've also forgotten many times to turn it on. Waiting for it to brew then go get a cup only to find it's still waiting to be turned on. Hahaha! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB!!~

Yes I have done all of the above. I did that one morning before I went to work I made coffee and went to go have a cup before I had to leave no coffee didn't have time to wait and drink. So went to work without. Made me not a happy person. You have a good day.

This happens to me many times. I just have to have my nice cup of Darjeeling tea in the morning and many times I do not get it right. My mom prepares just fine but there have been days when I do it i make a mess of it. And guess what, I do not get started without it.

I had that happen at Starbucks and I handed it right back to them. No one else complained about it but I knew there was something off with it. The guy wouldn't taste it to see if it was weak, "I don't drink coffee". How can you work at a Starbucks and not drink coffee. That's like working at the M&M plant and hating chocolate.

I would like it if I owned The M&M plant as the product would be safe. But The coffee not so sure on that. He told me he didn't know what happened so he drank it. My son makes the best coffee and he doesn't drink coffee. I wish he had been home. You have a nice day

Ugh!! I can't stand my coffee too weak! I am so disappointed when I am waiting for a cup and it doesn't turn out right! If I am at home, I just pour it out and make another pot!!

I would rather have a coffee too rich and strong then too weak. At least if the coffee is too strong I can add milk or a little extra water to it for the perfect coffee taste I desire. I personally do not like weak coffee, it's a teaser to me to smell coffee then taste it then find out it's water with a coffee scent.Hopefully you and your roommate can sorted out this weak coffee problem.

I have never had that happen to me personally as I really don't like coffee. I will drink the occasional Starbucks Frapaccino but other than that I don't drink it. I don't even own a coffee maker. How does the coffee turn out weak? Is not enough coffee added? Or is that too much water is put in? I'm just curious as I think I am going to end up breaking down and buying a coffee maker just for company. I have no idea about making coffee. Have a great day and happy myLotting!!!

Yes to little coffee grounds. And it could be to much water. say you was making coffee for six cups and you put in the right amount of coffee but put in 12 cups of water way to weak. start out with 3 heaping tablespoons and if not strong enough go for 4. For 11 to 12 cups. You have a great day. Your friend onlydia

I'm a chef when it comes to coffee. I'm making coffee to my friends all the time, and they love it. It happend to me once when I was wating for a coffee, and a guy there said that he makes a good cofee. I was waiting for my coffee badly, and I got so dissapointed when I first tasted it. It was extremely bad!

Oh yes~~ But the difference between your experience and mine was, i wa the one that made bad coffee that day..lol I think i just got up from a nap, and was still sleepy and maybe i added too much water or something. I can't really remember but the taste was extremely awful...i don't know how you'd describe a cup of watery coffee....just watery coffee i guess?

It's just horrible and there is nothing you can do. But drink it or dump it. It is better to have strong coffee and add water. That is what I do if it is to strong. You have a good day.
