Dolce Gusto Genio: Unit does not discharge water, even without a pod in place.

Fri, 13 Feb 2026 07:08:56 -0700

Tried cleaning the jet - no improvement.

Sounds like the pump is working. Maybe an air-lock in the water system?? Unit has been idle for at least one month.

Can someone provide detailed steps for identifying and correcting a possible air-lock? This would be helpful in narrowing down causes for no water discharge.

Franke A300: Can anyone tell me what this is?

Thu, 02 May 2024 11:15:40 -0700

Does anyone know what part of this bean to cup machine this is? It is the clear tank behind the hoses. It looks like it is dripping from that tank into the drip tray and may need cleaning/replacing.

Thanks

Dolce Gusto Oblo: The machine switches off when starting

Fri, 20 Sep 2024 09:14:07 -0700

The heating element works. The pump works fine with cold water, but when I switch over to hot, the whole machine shuts down after about 1 second. I have tried descaling, although not easy to do with so short pump bursts. Any ideas?

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: Not working, no sound from pump.

Wed, 14 Aug 2024 01:31:56 -0700

My Dolce gusto machine switches on but there is no longer any sound from the pump and it's not drawing water. Eventually the light goes from green to red without producing any coffee. We live in a soft water area so it's not timescale, there wasn't any issues with it yesterday.

Kitchen Gourmet XQ-673H: My pot drips like crazy when I pour the coffee

Sat, 27 Nov 2021 21:46:14 -0700

I use this product all the time. However, when I pour my coffee it pours all over the counter, I usually pour over the sink because of this ….but the pot is already small and i hate the mess not to mention the mess it makes.

Any suggestions? I have tried to pour slow and I have checked it for cracks or chips. None

Dolce Gusto: Machine unexpectedly stopped working, button doesn’t light up at all

I have a KP 1006 machine, and at some point, it just stopped turning on. The button doesn’t light up. I checked the fuses at the input – both have continuity. When connected to electricity, the heater starts heating up. Could you tell me what else could be the problem?

dolce gusto majesto: Recieving error of injector blocked?

Fri, 18 Mar 2022 13:01:11 -0700

Hi Guys,
I have the above Dolce Gusto machine, and it is saying the injector is blocked.
I have had it a couple of years, and never had the pod bin which apparently holds a tool that can unblock the injector.
Has anyone else had the same issue and has been able to resolve the issue without the specific tool?

Many Thanks
