QuestionMy latte machine only gives me small amount of espresso suddenly. It start pouring out at 10 secondes which before it was 6 secondes and I did not change any settings.
Asked 7 years ago by Marie.
- Answer Do you always run a shot without the filter connected before making your espresso? Sounds like the dispenser might be clogged. Run a few shots without the filter attached and see if that solves your problem.

QuestionWill this make cappuccino and latte?
Asked 8 years ago by Scott.
- Answer It makes espresso shots. To make Anericano, just add more water on the right side, to make cappuccino, add foamed milk (which this machine can make) , for latte, add even more milk with more foam. This machine does it all and all fresh and precise. I love it..
