Carafe Side Is Clogged

We have the Hamilton Beach 2-Way Brewer and we clean it regularly with vinegar as instructed. But today, the carafe side is clogged and takes an impossiblely long time to brew just one cup. Tried the vinegar cleaning again to no avail. Is there anything we can do to unclog it?

Hi. You may have a clogged screen in the bottom of the brew tank. Try using an old toothbrush to gently clean the mesh screen and rinse away the buildup.
