When was it last serviced? All these home machines need service every 6 months if used a couple of times a day. They are made to a price point, not to a professional catering standard.

Hey, Follow these instructions to reset the program on a Faema X30 coffee maker. Make sure the machine is turned off first. Next, simultaneously push and hold the "Stop" and "Steam" buttons. Press and hold these buttons to start the appliance. Hold the buttons down while waiting for the display to say "Reset." To finalize the reset, let go of the buttons and push the "Stop" button. The computer will restart, and the program's settings will be restored to their original values. Always refer to the user manual for detailed instructions tailored to your particular machine model. Thank You!

Hey, Check the power supply and make sure it is connected properly before attempting to fix your Faema X30 coffee maker's non-heating boiler issue. Next, check for any flaws or malfunctions with the thermostat and heating element. If necessary, think about swapping out the defective parts or hiring a pro to fix it.Thanks!

Vibration pumps usually make this when they stay long without work, sometimes they are remaining useless after this, you can try to open steam valve and to try pumping inn the water, if it does not helps, YOU MUST open the device, remove pump and blow her with compressed air few times, (they have two sensitive non return valves on the outlet). After blowing try it with water outside the device and see if she draws. If you recover the old one just put it in place and continues to work. If not than you must buy new pump

This is a link to the page (page 40) in the user manual to perform a reset. Note that this link to the manual has a table of contents hotlink that may help you further. The manual can be downloaded as a PDF file. Near the start of the manual is a page of tips to a service tech. That said, if the machine is damaged, the manual expressly indicates you should contact a qualified service person rather than try repairs yourself. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/947491/Faema-X2-Granditalia.html?page=40#manual

Do a google for owner's, parts or service manuals. There's websites that have manuals that you can view or download for free.

If you don't have an obvious control for grind type then it doesn't have the option.

What is this garbage?

First, I am NOT a Faema repairman, Though I've worked on some Faemas, and similar espresso machines. ** Your question is a bit vague so I will try to provide info. The 'semi-automatic' means you don't have to watch the brewing of the coffee. The machine will 'Dose' out a per-determined amount of water through the portafilter. Manual machines require to operator to turn water on and off to dose. Full automatic will grind the beans, measure and pack the coffee, then brew the coffee with water. Some have the option to froth and dispense milk directly into the cup. The industry usually refers these machines as 'Super-Automatics' They are very expensive and are designed for untrained personnel (not a Barista) to make coffee. There are a number of Home use machines now that provide a similar function but can only produce a cup for personal use and not multiple cups. ** I have come across automatic milk steamer and frother. This can be a simple cappuccino attachment to your steam tip. More updated version have an auto-frother that replaces the steam wand and will do a fair job (IF THEY ARE KEPT CLEAN!). Some machines have modified steam wands with sensor probe that will measure the milk temperature and shut off the steam when heated to set point. You will find all these features handy at first as it gets a novice worker quickly up to speed to produce product. But once they get the proper Barista training, most will not use these features as it's generally faster to produce orders the standard way. (also a good Barista will always present a professional looking cup!) ** I've noted that repeat customers appreciate the effort that goes into a properly brewed cup of coffee. Otherwise we would all go to a coffee vending machine (with instant coffee, Yuk!) Aloha! youtube; ukeboy57
