Nespresso producing watery coffee (brand new)

Purchased a new machine one week ago and the machine has only produced watery espresso (in single shot and lungo volumes). I have tried different capsules to see if that was the issue, though it is not. Water flowing per my previous nespresso essenza, and no other clear indication of red flags. Please help!

SOURCE: nespresso essenza problem

It's not supposed to make holes in the capsule until the water comes through. So, basically, when you put the capsule in, it pierces the capsule in three spots, on the top. The aluminum part will not pierce until you press the button and water comes through. If water is not coming through, then you can clear the air bubble by opening the lever on top of the machine, pressing the coffee button, and then closing the lever once the water begins to come through.

My nespresso c190 makes coffee watery

Have you decalcified the machine? They need descaling about once every year - 18 months, and one MUST use the Nespresso Descaling Pack, which is designed for all Nespresso machines. I can't understand why the capsule holder is tight, unless you have used so-called "Nespresso Compatible" capsules, which can cause this. The machines are designed for use only with genuine Nespresso capsules.

My nespresso machine won't froth the milk

Brand of milk definitely matters... Here in Canada I used Sealtest 1% when I first used it and the froth was thick light and luxurious. Then one week picked up Neilsen 1% and found it produced absolutely ZERO froth. Back to Sealtest...back to froth. Milk brand matters....but don't know why.

My magimix coffee machine is so slow producing the coffee. please let me know what you think it is thanks

Hi Tracy. Fill the pot with half vinegar and half water and run that through the machine without any coffee. This will clean it on the inside and the speed will be back to what it was when it was new. Joe

My single cup portofilter on my ECM Giotto suddendly is pouring more coffee then it should. I'm using the same grind I've been using forever. My other portofilter (2 cup) works fine and still produces the...

How old is the coffee being used? Normally if you change baskets, the grind should be the same, because the single basket has finer and less holes in it than the double basket. The only difference would be the tamp then, since the coffee grinds works great with the double basket. You would also have to use a different volume of water to produce the coffee. To produce 2 ounces of espresso you need about 3 ozs of water,(about an ounces of water will remain in the coffee).

What does the coffee produced taste like, is it bitter and watery, is there any creama on the espresso shot. Try adjusting the grind and the coffee level, maybe a little coarser.

Just set up a recently purchased used Astoria argenta single and can't get a thick Espresso

Try adjusting the grind on the grinder to a finer setting, and make sure that the machine ins producing about 9 bars of pressure on the water pump(check bottom gauge on manometer).
