Product Information

Whilst they are super easy to operate and make wonderfully brewed coffee, the Dolce Gusto coffee machine is renowned for having a range of lights blinking on the power button, which all mean different things. Coffee machines combine water, heat, and mains electricity so it’s best you don’t try to fix them yourself! Depending on whichever colour is flashing or glowing, then you may have a different issue with the machine. If priming is not possible after these manipulations, take the appliance to an authorized service center. In the case of a manual machine, you are the one controling the amount of water suitable for your drink.

This means that the coffee machine does not recognize that there is a coffee pod inside, and will therefore not work.A variation of the above problem is that sometimes the coffee machine switches on with the buttons glowing normally but suddenly switches off after a few seconds. When you press the "Power" button on your Dolce Gusto coffee maker, you realize that the indicator light does not turn green as expected. Follow the instructions in your personal instruction manual for descaling your machine as techniques vary according to the model you own. When you press the start button, the Dolce Gusto will flash red for about 30 seconds before stabilizing on a solid green.

The problem is more likely related to the capsule or capsule holder and does not necessarily involve a technical fault. The fault of excessive vibration in Dolce Gusto coffee machines is not very frequent, but the control board is damaged. In many instances, the machine will remain red up until the water has reached the right temperature.To ensure your full safety during the use of your machine, follow the "recommendations for safe use" in the manual that came with your machine.

One of the main reasons why a Dolce Gusto coffee machine has no water pressure is because the coffee machine is clogged or because the build-up of limescale and impurities is such that it prevents the normal circulation of water inside the machine. The cases that have happened are very isolated and have a logical explanation (and to make matters worse, they are far from exclusive and cannot be linked only to the coffee makers or the capsules of the Dolce Gusto system).

Does this mean that the hot water will only be in contact with the stainless steel but not with the aluminum?
