We are sorry to hear that your coffee maker takes 20-25 minutes to perk 6 cups of water into 4 cups of coffee. That is certainly not the experience we want you to have. No worries, we are here to help. A coffeemaker will experience slow brewing if not properly cleaned. It is recommended to clean the coffeemaker after 40 brews for hard water use and 80 brews for soft water use.&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;To decalcify your Mr. Coffee&amp;reg; SC12 Series Coffeemaker, please follow the instructions below:&#13;&#10;Minerals (calcium/limestone) found in water will leave deposits in your&#13;&#10;coffeemaker and affect its performance. It&amp;rsquo;s recommended that you&#13;&#10;regularly remove these deposits using vinegar.&#13;&#10;1. Remove the water filtration system from the coffeemaker.&#13;&#10;2. Prepare 4 cups or 20 fl. oz. / 592ml of undiluted, white household vinegar. Pour the vinegar into the water reservoir.&#13;&#10;3. Place an empty 10-12 cup basket-style paper filter or Mr. Coffee&amp;reg; reusable filter into the brew basket and close the coffeemaker&amp;rsquo;s lid.&#13;&#10;4. Place the empty carafe back in the unit, centered on the warming plate.&#13;&#10;5. Brew prepared cleaning solution through the coffeemaker.&#13;&#10;6. Discard the cleaning solution and rinse the carafe thoroughly with clean water.&#13;&#10;7. Fill the water reservoir with 12 cups of clean, fresh water.&#13;&#10;8. Place the empty carafe back on the coffeemaker, centered on the warming plate.&#13;&#10;9. Remove and discard the paper filter used during the cleaning cycle. If a Mr. Coffee&amp;reg; reusable filter was used during cleaning, remove it and rinse it thoroughly before replacing it in the brew basket.&#13;&#10;10. Turn the switch to ON and allow the full brew cycle to complete, rinsing the coffeemaker with hot water.&#13;&#10;11. Discard the water and rinse the carafe thoroughly with clean water.&#13;&#10;12. Repeat steps 8 through 11 one more time, to ensure it is fully rinsed.&#13;&#10;Your coffeemaker is now clean and ready to brew the next pot of&#13;&#10;delicious, hot coffee!&#13;&#10;&#13;&#10;Your Mr. Coffee&amp;reg; 12-Cup Coffeemaker has a 1-year limited warranty.
