    If the burrs are not turning, first thing I will do is to check them. I bought cheap coffee beans from Lidl, just for testing purposes. I took my time and check the entire bag, you do not believe how many bits of wood I found. All those pieces end up in the grinder and block it.

    I cleaned the boiler in place with a big syringe, filling it up and emptying the boiler several times, with different strength of lime scale remover & citric acid . There was some aluminum particles coming out through the hose attached to the syringe. I might remove the boiler to see how cleaned...

    I was doing the same thing today. Thanks to the Lidl parkside Cordless Cutter Grinder, i could get the job done easily. I tried first with the Dremel, but too slow process. Now I have to make a few threads and add a nut to hold the axel in place while opening it, although i have already ordered...

    Finally I found the best way to do it. No silicone of any kind, the softness could be damaged and is not food safe stuff. I used the glue gun and melt o bit of plastic in the hole. It is harder and safer compare with the soft one. I am very pleased wit it.

    Thanks for reply, well, the one I am using in the bathroom is not that hard when it hardens. Usually when there are a lot of wear, I remove it easily (the rubber thing) and turn it with the inside out, but this time it broke :(

    Fix it using some of the strongest glue, Scotch weld DP 490 3m, working great so far.

    Google says that "3 to 5 cups daily, or up to 400 milligrams of caffeine is moderation". I drink just two coffees, morning and afternoon. 5 cups daily is too much.

    I just came across with Sage Barista Express, the fault was, no steam coming out through the steam wand. The first starting point of troubleshooting it was checking the steam wand, amazingly it was blocked with bits of limescale. That was quick fix...well I did a proper descaling, it has never...

    Hi, Is not that difficult, if you dismantle it, and you are confident, the default factory settings are visible marked somewhere.....on the grinder, If the settings are OK, than requires a bit more skills.... you have to tighten the upper part of the grinder down until is locked to the bottom...

    Hi all, Has anyone any idea if I can source the infuser part from the picture attached? There are two "gear arms" , the small one, two teeth broke as a result of the infuser jam. I try to get it fixed, if I do not find I have to buy a new unit. Overall the infuser has not much wear, therefore...
