Possible Causes

Clogged air intake on frother, Blocked milk nozzle, Incorrect milk type or temperature, Scale buildup in steam circuit

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the machine and allow the steam system to cool before disassembling the frother.

  • Clean frother components: Disassemble the milk frother nozzle and soak parts in warm water with a little dish soap. Use a fine brush to clean air holes.
  • Check air intake: Ensure the small air hole on the frother is not blocked by dried milk.
  • Use cold milk: Use fresh, cold milk (3–3.5% fat) for best foam.
  • Descale steam circuit: Run a descaling cycle focusing on the steam function to restore proper steam pressure.
