I have a brand new Kitchenaid Artisan, which works perfectly apart from one thing; it doesn't appear to output hot water probably. It does output steam and a lot of it, which eventually will turn into water, but is it true, that I have to put it on max steam and press the button to get a decent amount of hot water for my tea? Thank you!

by frother you mean it puts out steam ? if yes then I need to know how long you hold down the button and have you checked the hose in back to see if it has cracks or is kinked?

Before you press water button to vent you need to restore to factory settings.


First press menu (far right button) then toggle to restore factory settings (using far left button), press menu button then far right again until yes comes up, then press menu button. Press esc button (3rd from left), machine should now be back to normal. Then press water button (3rd from right) and turn steam knob to vent until free water is coming through.

This is the only way I could get mine to work!

Your thermostat has failed. The middle button is the pump. The bottom button is for the steam mode. If you are getting steam instead of hot water when using the pump, then the boiler is way too hot. Either adjust the thermostat or try descaling the boiler.

SOURCE: When the hot water switch is pressed, no water is pumped.

group head is blocked. remove centre screw from the group head remove spring and valve, clean and re assemble.
