Keep reading to learn how to reset your Ninja Coffee Bar and get back to brewing delicious pots of coffee! Stop wasting time with a malfunctioning coffee maker and start enjoying your coffee instead.
The 4 Steps to Reset Your Ninja Coffee Bar:
1. Check that your Ninja is set up correctly.
To figure out what’s wrong with your Ninja Coffee Bar, you’ll need to think about where in the brewing process it’s breaking down. Does it turn on? When you turn it on, does it preheat the water? When you tell it to brew, does it start brewing and then stop?
Start at the beginning, checking the user manual. Ensure that the outlet has power and your Ninja Coffee Bar is turning on. Make sure you’re filling the water reservoir to the right line and selecting the corresponding brew size. Check that you’re using a #4 paper filter or the permanent filter and that you’ve filled it with medium-ground coffee. Make sure the brew basket is in the right place and that you’ve put a cup or carafe below it. Finally, check that the Drip Stop lever is pushed to the right.
Misplaced your user manual? You can find it on the Ninja website.
2. Look at the indicators.
If you’ve set your Ninja Coffee Bar up correctly, take a look at the indicators on the brew panel. Are any lights lit, like the cleaning or Drip Stop indicators? Your Coffee Bar is designed to alert you to any issues, so use the indicators as a guide.
3. Run a cleaning cycle.
Whether or not your cleaning light is on, it may help to run a deep cleaning and descaling cycle. Fully cleaning your Ninja Coffee Bar will reset any clogs, helping it brew coffee.
Pour white vinegar or descaling solution into the water reservoir and dilute it with water. Set the brew size to the full carafe, place the carafe under the brew basket, and press the cleaning button. This process will take about 60 minutes.
