232,
Sorry to read about your issue.

The brewer should be de-scaled at least every 3-6 months. Scale is harmless, but if left unattended, it can hinder optimal brewer performance. De-scaling your brewer regularly helps maintain the heating element, removable water reservoir and other parts of the brewer that come in contact with water. Better water quality and water heating means a better cup of coffee, tea, hot cocoa or iced beverage. We recommend de-scaling your brewer at least every 6 months (every 3 months if your water has a high mineral content). The de-scaling process involves using 48 ounces of undiluted white vinegar.

Take 48 oz of white vinegar. place in tank. pretend you are making coffee (Do No Use K Cup). let the water fill you mug. then empty that mug. Do it again until tank is empty. then let sit for 4 hours.
Then fill with fresh water to the top. let that tank of water run thru. towards the end taste the water.
If you taste vinegar..use more clean water, until the taste is ok.

I tried to help you. Please help me and Vote/Rate this response. Thanks and good luck

My Saeco Odea Go makes coffee very slowly

If the water pressure coming out of the steam/hot water arm is fine, then the issue is likely with the brew unit or the grinder. Here are a few things you can check:
  1. Clean the brew unit: A dirty or clogged brew unit can slow down the flow of water. Remove the brew unit and clean it thoroughly, making sure to remove any coffee residue or buildup.
  2. Check the grinder: A dull or clogged grinder can also slow down the flow of water. Make sure the grinder is set to the appropriate setting for your coffee beans and check that the grinder is not clogged.
  3. Check the water flow meter: The water flow meter measures the amount of water flowing through the machine. If it is clogged or damaged, it can affect the flow of water. Try cleaning the water flow meter with a soft-bristled brush and see if that helps.
  4. Check the water filter: If your machine has a water filter, it may be clogged and affecting the flow of water. Replace the filter if necessary.
If none of these solutions help, it may be a more serious issue and you may need to bring your machine to a professional for repair.

Slow process

I had the same problem with my Mr Coffee ISX23. I took it apart and found a little chunk of something was stuck in an in-line check valve from the fresh water reservoir to the heater thingee. After disconnnecting the hose from both ends it slid out of the hose I pulled the little black (maybe rubber) thing out and reassembled it. Works great. Be sure to replace the check valve oriented the right way. I tested this by blowing on it.

Low steam pressure

Hi,
you have to put a litle quantity of vinegar about one botlle and rinse it trouuth hot water knob and then refill the water tank with fresh water and rinse it all water. That must help you. Instead of vinegar you can use liquid for descaling if you have.

Our bosh washing machine does not seem to be rinsing properly do you have any solutions? I was wondering if the water pressure has any thing to do with the problem.

If your machine has 2 water hoses connected check to see if both water valves are connected and switched on, if so the you may have a faulty cold water valve. If you have only 1 water hose then the cold water valve on the twin or triple valve is faulty. You can change these easily buy removing the top panel and removing the valve, usually only 2 screws. low water pressure shouldn't affect the rinse just make it slow filling. Hope this helps.

Our new faucet, water comes out very slow

Hello there:
i would first double checkl all of the connections that you made to see if a filter may have been put in backwards also you may want to check the owners manual that vcame with it to see if it is a water saving type which means there will be a significant pressure decrease ok so please check that too and also check the pressure regulator for the system pressure in the home a simple adjustment can cure most home low water pressure problems. ok?
best regards michael
