If you don’t dry the coffee beans container (even if you just used grounded coffee) the coffee will not brew correctly. There should be a barrier so that moisture does not go into the bean reservoir etc. Also when you add water to brew it’s too easy for drops to fall into that area also. It almost like this machine can’t deal with water or moisture or condensation. I don’t recommend unless you dry the machine parts after each use. Including parts you didn’t even use.
