Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓This will keep clear the passage from the milk to your coffee, eliminating bacteria and blockage. So save money and have better health.

Switch the clear soft tube they have in the carafe for a hard syringe tube. You can clear it out by pushing the plunger through and clear out the tube. Mine has lasted 2 years already and I can replace it for $1.

Take off the rubber ring so it won't get sucked into the vacuum. Put the running vacuum up to the small so its sealed. Pour water into the head and suck it through the passage. Tada! No blocked carafes anymore.
