Problem
The milk sputters when
it is dispensed. Hissing
noises can be heard
when milk is being
heated up or frothed.
Although the milk
should be frothed, only
hot milk comes out of
the main dispenser.

Possible cause and remedy
The milk pipework was not fitted correctly.
 Take note of the seam on the double hose when
fitting it to the central spout.
 In case you have detached the milk tube from the
rinsing valve: the double hose has different
diameters. Pay attention to accurate assembly.
The milk temperature is too high. Good milk froth can
only be achieved with cold milk (below 10 °C).
 Check the temperature of the milk.
The central spout is not fitted correctly and is
drawing in air. Or the spouts are blocked.
 Check whether the central spout has been
assembled correctly. Make sure that all parts are
tightly connected to one another.
 Clean the central spout. Rub the spout under
running water to remove any dirt.
The milk pipework, connection pieces, the stainless
steel tube on the milk flask and the milk siphon are
blocked.
 Clean all parts thoroughly with the cleaning brush.
The steam jet on the central spout has a blockage.
 Clean the steam jet with the cleaning brush (see
illustration).
