How do I clean my espresso/steamer machine?
Sunday, March 29th, 2009irishbarfight asked:
My husband bought me one of these guys for Christmas two years ago, and I used it every day for about a month..then put it away…never to be heard from again until today lol. I remember reading in its instruction manual that a once-a-month cleaning is necessary to keep it working great..but i can’t find the manual..and i don’t remember HOW it said to clean it. I usually use watered down white vinegar on my regular coffee maker, but I’m not sure if I can use it on this. If I can, how does it work, do i just let it process through like its brewing espresso? how do I clean the inside of the steam wand? I’d really like to use it again this evening, if at all possible.
Lon, you need to start leaving more than just 1 or 2 word answers to questions, and not just random words that don’t make sense to the question just to get points. Please show some respect.

problems when making espresso?
Friday, March 13th, 2009robby lim asked:
I just got my new espresso machine yesterday but i am having a few problems with it. whenever i make my espresso at home, i noticed that the ground coffee is always soaking wet whenever i remove it from the machine. from what i know, it should be dry and when i discard it, it should be intact and should fall out in one piece. i don’t know why but mine’s been really soggy and wet. Does anyone know how to fix this? it would really be of great help
thanks!

What should I use to protect my electrical appliances in a developing country?
Sunday, March 1st, 2009cant figure it out asked:
I am in Ecuador, with American appliances. Current here is 110v like in the US. I don’t know if I should use a surge protector or a voltage regulator. Electricity here goes on and off regularly and several people have had small heating appliances (coffee makers, hair dryers, etc.) break down… I have an expensive espresso machine and would die if it broke down!
