Coffee machine


Recommended Posts

You might need to take the brew unit out and clean it - this is one case of please read the manual on how to do it - on my wifes full auto, I wash the brew unit under the tap and dry it with my air gun, as well as followng the cleaning cycle on the device.

I wonder if its a case of confusing the brew group with the grounds container?

Otherwise possibly a faulty sensor.

No - there is generally a BIG piece of the workings of the machine that can come out - the brew goup - it's the bit that compresses the coffee and the water comes through - excludes the heater and the grinder, but it's basically the rest of the machine's moving parts - you will need to take a side cover off most likely - like I say - read the manual - there is probably a section on removing the brew group.

I know about that, have to do it often on my Saeco, just wasnt sure if Help.Me was possibly confusing the two.

Still your vid should make if clear if my assumptions were way off or not.

It's just me - confusing you and Rocket-boy  with help.me... :)

 

Still - the video should help I guess - might just be overkill...

Tweaking brew pressures. At idle is settling at bar. Is this okay. Will post first attempt at milk steaming now. http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/12/15/01cb6e3bf19154bfd40405d669351366.jpg
