## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS NOT GROUNDED: F/A REPORTED LIGHT SMOKE FROM AFT GALLEY COFFEEMAKER. SMOKE CLEARED WHEN POWER WAS REMOVED FROM THE COFFEEMAKER WHICH REMAINED UNPOWERED FOR THE DURATION OF THE FLIGHT.  MAINTENANCE REPLACED BOTH AFT GALLEY COFFEEMAKERS IAW AMM 25-35-15 AS A PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE AND INSPECTED ALL WIRES TO COFFEEMAKERS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION WITH NO DEFECTS BEING NOTED.  A SATISFACTORY OPS CHECK IAW AMM 25-35-00 WAS ACCOMPLISHED WITH NO SMOKE NOTED.
