'Automatic maintenance on the screen = ground coffee ejected
All of these automated coffee machines need regular maintenance. When was it professionally services by the dealer? My 6 machines in an airport environment needed service every 4 months. At home, probably every 12 months. Seals need replacing and moving parts cleaned and lubricated. In my opinion these machines are totally unsuited for home use. So many issues show up on this website and all makes, but Saeco are the worst..
Dolce gusto krups infinissima red light
The blinking yellow-green and solid red light on a coffee machine typically indicate an error or problem with the machine. Without more specific information about the make and model of your coffee machine, it is difficult to say for sure what the problem is. However, here are some common issues that can cause a coffee machine to display these lights:
Blinking yellow-green light: This light may indicate that the machine is in a warm-up or preheat mode.
Solid red light: A solid red light can indicate several different problems, depending on the machine's model and brand. Some common causes of a solid red light include a low water level, a clogged or dirty brew head, or an issue with the machine's heating system.
It is recommended to check the user manual for your coffee machine to determine what the specific light sequence means and how to address the issue. If you don't have the manual, you may be able to find a copy online by searching for the make and model of your machine. If you are unable to resolve the problem, you may need to have the machine serviced by a professional.
Krups XP4050 brews but stops midway (after 4-5 secs) & then the beeping sound + blinking button lights comes on. Anyway to resolve this? Thanks mate!
There are a few potential causes for the issue you are experiencing with your Krups XP4050 coffee maker. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the problem:
- Check for any blockages or obstructions in the water line or pump. Make sure that the water line is clear and that the pump is functioning properly.
- Check the water level in the tank. Make sure that the water level is above the minimum level required for brewing.
- Check the filter for any clogs or blockages. Make sure that the filter is clean and free of any debris.
- Check the coffee grounds for any issues. Make sure that the grounds are fresh and not stale or clumped together.
- If the issue persists, you may want to try running a diagnostic test on the coffee maker. Consult the manufacturer's manual for instructions on how to do this.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, it is possible that there is a problem with the coffee maker's internal components. It is recommended to contact a professional for further assistance in diagnosing and repairing the issue
Krups Blender 577 replacement of rubber coupling
Krups Blender 577 - first try it not easy but next time it will be.
Replacing the rubber coubling is extremely difficult with this model.
After almost destroying the air in/outtake grill on the side in pursuit of a good lock of the axe, I tried so hard to use a nose plier to grab the post and unscrew the coupling counter-clockwise but it just didn't fit (it needs to be long and narrow/needle like). So I ended up cutting off rubber on the coupling and also cutting of plastic from the black plastic cover which is just under the rubber coupling. In the end I was able to cut that plastic and remove it so that I could actually take off the whole casing (you need a torx 20 with a hole in it to unsrew the 4 bits at the bottom underneath the rubber stands) with the rubber coupling still attached and detach two power cables so that I had much more space to properly grab the post and then it was very very easy to unscrew it counter-clockwise. But up until then I lost my insanity twice :-).
Now I know how to so the next time will be easier.
