Our coffee pot has been driving us crazy lately, by leaking on the counter while pouring. It was just a design flaw by a Chinese manufacturer.
To fix it, I used some Sugru. It’s like modeling clay when you take it from its packet, and when exposed to air, it cures to a cool silicone thing.
By molding it under the pouring spout, it catches the coffee that was leaking, and redirects it back into the stream. Works perfectly!
clever!
