    • The machine I used this morning is my ancient Krups, which I got in the early 90s and retired, not because it didn't work, but because it was getting old
    • I don't know if it's because the little strainer is so much smaller than the adapter, or if the whole machine is just defective

    • I really wish the company would fix this as it's a great little affordable machine.
