1: Depending on how long you've had your machine, it may need descaling. The machines are preset for hard water - if you're in an area with soft water, try pressing and holding the Lungo button while you turn the machine on. Hold until the lights stop flashing.
2: The Pixie can be reset to factory settings by holding both buttons down before and when you turn the machine on, again until the lights stop flashing - this will reset to factory settings.
3: The temperature is preset to be the optimum temperature for the extraction process. If, after following the above steps, the temp is still too low, call the Nespresso Club and they will advise you.
Hope this is of help to you!
Try resetting to factory settings by holding both buttons down while turning the machine on - hold till lights stop flashing. Then programme both espresso and lungo buttons again in the usual way.
Hope this helps!
Faema Due depending on the model semi or auto has either 6 buttons for auto and any where from 1 to 2 for semi. There are 2 short level cups single and double and 2 long level cups. They are for ristretto or restricted and lungo or long, but if you only use 2 ounce or 3 ounce shots depending on your preference. I usually set all buttons to shop preference because in the US most shops either do 2oz or 3oz espresso shots. The cup with the dots above it is continuous run and ofcourse the stop is... On the semi you have one cup and stop or a push button.
Ok, what you have done is programmed your machine. If you hold down the button for 3 secs you get 3 secs of coffee, so turn on your machine wait for it to warm up then without using a capsule press and hold the button until you get 110mls for a lungo and this will be stored in the memory. If this doesn't work there is a on/off switch on the right handside turn it on with your finger down on the lungo button for 5 secs and then release the button and this will take it back to factory settings.
The amount of water is programmed by holding in the button. Put your cup below, and press the button. Keep holding until you are happy with the amount of water that came out - and then let go.
Next time you use it, you just need to do the normal short press on the buttom.
(Both the Espresso and the Lungo button can be programmed.)
Hi The trio is set up for pods. There is nothing wrong with it. The positions on the brew head are for different shots. The 3 rd position lets a lot of water through, and the 2nd one lets less and the first one lets the least water through, and makes the strongest coffee.
I had some coffee grounds stuck up in the cone shaped hole that the water comes from at the top. I had to use a very long toothpick but it broke up some of the grounds that happened to get caught up inside. Before doing this, I went through 24 oz of vinager ;) .. the toothpick worked!
I had very similar problem and found the fix here.
Did you try the reset process? Place an empty cup, insert a coffe pod, press and keep pressing the "Lungo" button until the cup is filled as desired then release it. Next coffee, just press once, it should be now set at the desired level.
