If you have cold coffee everyday chances are your heating coil has gone bad. There is a small chance that a wire has been broken off the heating coil which could cause the same result. Either way you will have to take the heating coil out of the coffee maker to make repairs or replace it all together. To successfully complete this guide you will need to know how to solder.

Unfortunately replacement heater tubes/coil do not seem to be available. If anyone has a link please share.
Mine corroded through and leaks through a pinhole allowing water to flow all over the counter.
My Cuisinart chw-12 coffee pot came from a local hospital who had decided to throw it away after many years of use due to a small leak that has worsened over time. I figured I could save it, and after removing bottom cover, I discovered that there is a small pinhole link on the side of heating element due to rust and corrosion, with another forming right next to it. Hope I can find another heating element like this one!!
