Jura Capresso 553.01 Electric Burr Grinder - Page 4 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
I have a Magnifica S machine and the milk steamer flow is diminished compared to a few months ago and it seams like steam is not coming out of the bottom of the machine. Any ideas?
Here are some possible reasons why the milk steamer flow is diminished and steam is not coming out of the bottom of the machine:
Clogged steam wand: The steam wand might be clogged with milk residue, which can restrict the flow of steam. Try cleaning the steam wand with a damp cloth or a pipe cleaner.
Faulty steam valve: The steam valve might be faulty or damaged, which can cause a decrease in steam pressure. In this case, you may need to replace the valve.
Blocked milk frother: The milk frother might be blocked with milk residue, which can prevent the milk from frothing properly. Try cleaning the milk frother with a damp cloth or a pipe cleaner.
Faulty milk frother: The milk frother might be faulty or damaged, which can cause a decrease in milk flow and prevent proper frothing. In this case, you may need to replace the milk frother.
If none of these solutions work, it's best to contact DeLonghi's customer service for further assistance
How do you increase the temperature to make the coffee come out hotter on the jura A1
Usually descaling the heating reservoir takes care of that. You know best if this servicing is required but perhaps already after a couple of years. Don't use vinegar. Suitable, apart from descaling powder supplied by the manufacturer, are diluted lactic acid and citric acid but the commonly used citric acid is not lemon juice, it is a white powder or it consists of small crystals and is to be dissolved in water. Note that the water will taste acidic even after rinsing and use for a couple of times since those acids are very (!) strong. Do not breath in the fumes that come out of the coffee maker and use the - pump water only - function when your machine has one. This also serves protection against frost. For me it is pressing two buttons combined. Descaling is done, being applied, when water comes out clear.
Espresso part not working, even without coffee. Not building enough pressure?
Question edited for funky spelling of Iv'e rather than I've a contraction of 'I have', the apostrophe replaces the letters 'ha'.
By your own diagnostics the nozzle itself is blocked. Look inside for a filter matrix that gives the 'Crema'.
Although you don't mention make and model (all questions need that), typically these machines need dealer service every 12 to 18 months in a home setting. Of course they don't tell you this when you buy them. In a commercial setting, my coffee machines were serviced in house every month. One machine did a thousand cups a day!
Coffee beans grind but water comes out clear. No coffee.
When a grinder is jammed, generally the motor won't be able to spin the burrs to grind the beans. This can happen for a couple of reasons: coffee oils and debris can easily build up in the burrs if they have been left to collect over time.
