My drip maker shuts off. This is very frustrating, since no human should attempt the consumption of six cups of coffee within thirty minutes.

I’d like to get rid of this timer, but I can’t see anything obvious on the board. Is it most likely to be in that little processor at the top left of the coated side?

lmao some of these replies are exactly the sort of thing you’d expect from reddit in like, 2011. For reference, even mildly scalded coffee tastes better than that instant shite, and I’m not drinking ut for taste.

    It certainly isn’t on the second PCB. That’s the power supply and I’d definitely keep my hands off that. YOur best chance is to look for an IC with “555” in its’ type number. That’s the most commonly used timer chip. Search the net for a data sheet for the specific type and find the right pin to ground. It should be the one to start the timer; depending on the way the timeout is implemented it might also be the “set” pin.

      I suspect that the IC is the eight-pin thing I saw in the top left. It appears to be the only one there tbh, but it has a coating over it to hide the labeling for some inane reason. Bah.
