Dolce Gusto Melody: Melody Dolce Gusto Coffee Pod not being properly pierced

Piercing mechanism appears to have shrunk back into casing, so water does not enter pod. Can piercing mechanism be repaired/replaced?

Dolce Gusto Melody: Power button blinks red and then stops.

Tue, 25 Aug 2020 04:30:12 -0700

Hi,

My machine started having this weird behavior, so when I press the button it starts blinking red till the machine heats up then it should switch to green, but now when I press it, it just blinks red then stops, if I press it again it blinks again red and then stops.

I can only manage to make it work if I keep pressing the button till it starts blinking green.

Do you know if it’s some electronic that needs a fix?

Thanks.

Dolce Gusto Melody: Is it possibleto "transform" a coffe maker voltage?

Mon, 09 Apr 2018 17:26:29 -0700

I bought a Dolce Gusto lumio coffe maker in Japan (100v) and I'm trying to use it in USA. It works at 1460watts. I've been trying to figure out what transformer should I get and I've gotten different answers: 1500watts, 2000w, 3000w and 5000w. I have no idea which one is the correct one and I was wondering if if it's possible to transform the voltage to the machine instead. I mean alter the circuit or something like that to make it work for 120volt.

Is it possible? If so, what option is your recommendation: get a transformer or alter the machine? If it's get a transformer, which one is the right one: 1500, 2000, 3000 or 5000watts?

Thanks
