How do I stop my coffee maker from making coffee that tastes like plastic?

I just bought a 4-cup coffee maker to replace my broken Krups. The directions mentioned that, before making the first cup of coffee, I should run water through the system first. I did this, but even after a month of using the coffee maker every day, the coffee tastes like plastic. I’ve been using the same filters, water, and coffee as I did in my old machine, so it has to be the new coffee maker. How do I get the plastic taste out of my coffee?

    1. Contact the manufacturer. It might have been recalled. In that case they should off to replace it at no charge.

    2. Try running a coffee pot cleaner thru it. You can also use diluted vinegar.

    3. Return it to the store for exchange or refund.

    Plastic coffee is the worst!!!
