Milk frother does not draw milk or produces only hot steam with no foam.

Safety first: Turn off and unplug the machine. Allow the steam circuit to cool.

• Disassemble frother: Remove the milk frother or cappuccinatore and take apart all removable pieces according to the manual.
• Soak components: Soak the nozzle, air intake, and milk tube in warm water with a little dish soap for 15–20 minutes. Rinse thoroughly.
• Clear air hole: Use a fine needle to gently clear the small air intake hole that creates foam.
• Reassemble correctly: Ensure all parts are firmly reconnected in the correct order.
• Test with cold milk: Use fresh, cold milk from the refrigerator and test frothing. If still no suction, internal steam circuit issues may require service.
