This guide is particularly useful if the tubing in your Mr. Coffee BVMC-SJX33G is cracked or ripped. This guide also demonstrates how to remove the rubber hoses for simple cleaning.
Make sure your coffee maker is unplugged and empty of all water before attempting to make any repairs.

-
Turn your coffee maker over so that the base is facing up.
-
-
-
Locate the seven 13.5mm screws securing the base to the coffee maker.
-
Unscrew the screws using a #2 Phillips head screwdriver.
-
-
-
Also the front two screws are safety screws: they have a 6 sided star shape with a raised dimple in the center to prevent homebodies from casually opening the machine. (probably from the Sunbeam’s (owns Mr. Coffee) legal dept.) Anyway you will need a security bit to remove the screws and not a phillips screw driver.

Locate the metal clamps.
-
Using a pair of pliers or your fingers, slide clamps away from tube opening.
Where do you get replacement hoses?
How to get replace hoses
Ok I cleaned mine the way you are supposed to, but it is still brewing super slow.

Using a plastic opening tool, loosen rubber hose from metal tubing.
-
Once loosened, grip the hose and pull it from the metal tubing.
-
-
-
Locate the other set of metal clamps.
-
Using needle nose pliers or your fingers remove these clamps by pinching the clamps and sliding them up the tubes.

-
Grip the hoses and pull them straight up and out.
I have the same coffee maker as pictured. I removed the clamps, and the first hose came off easily. The hose housing the valve would not come loose. I ended up tearing the hose while trying. Any ideas for a replacement hose? And how to get this torn one off?
Sadly, you mentioned the size of the screws, but failed to mention the most important piece of information, the size of the actual silicone hose (ID & OD).
Very helpful procedure. All 7 screws on my maker were Philips heads so thankfully did not need that special tool. As I did not have a spare valve, I ran water through mine and confirmed the operation of the valve by blowing on each side. The valve seems clear and working as it should but after reassembly sadly it made no difference. I think in my case there must be something wrong with the heater circuitry and will have to dig a bit deeper to determine what failed and if it is worth (or even possible) to replace the defective part.

how can I buy this part
That is indeed the question. Because of planned obsolescence companies basically assume you will just buy an entirely new coffee maker. My best suggestion is to buy a similar model at a thrift store like Goodwill and use the parts from that.
I noticed red hose - and transparent hose - when one uses one or other - not all are FDA approved as food grade hoses ?
I thought transparent is often food grade FDA marked - and it can be marked high temp up to 500 degrees
But never the red - the red is high temp but it may not be food grade - Question:" How to verify when one has the hose that it is from a seller ?
~~~~~ Two Questions Below: ~~~~~~~~~~~
How is best way to verify hose as drinking water safe ?
What diameter hose should one get for Model : BVMC-SJX33GT [ Mr Coffee Maker ] ? Metric/English -size for it is ?
Amazon: HOS9X13 . You must transfer a valve from one of the water feed tubes and insert into the replacement hose, note the position. It has to be cut out of the old hose. This prevents backflow and the hose from collapsing from a vacuum so its generally close to the water source.
How much life you get from the repair depends on how corroded the aluminum tube is. While there are deposits that can be wiped out , bad metal corrosion needs refinishing to be smooth and prevent the smallest leaks of steam even with a new hose. New tighter spring clamps will help. So even if a major leak is stopped, a steam leak will make the bottom damp.
