I want to brew
espresso from
ground coffee, but
no espresso comes
out of the appliance.
You have put too much
ground coffee in the ground
coffee compartment.

brewing unit and thoroughly clean the inside
of the appliance. Brew espresso from ground
coffee again, but do not put more than one level
spoonful of ground coffee in the ground coffee
compartment
You have not selected the
ground coffee function.
As a result, the appliance
has become blocked
because it has tried to brew

the inside of the appliance. Brew espresso from
ground coffee again, but make sure you select the
