I purchased this coffee maker about 8 months ago.  Unfortunately I did not register the coffee maker and my husband threw out the box/book which also contained the receipt.  The coffee maker is no longer being sold in my hometown so I cannot even look at the floor model to see what I need to order to fix this issue.  This morning it will not brew.  A small spike has broken off of somewhere.  I believe the filter basket where it connects to the other basket but I am not sure.  I tried to look up trouble shooting and parts on the computer to no avail.  Please help!
