EM6910 tricks

Isn't it something like 'made with love', maybe we don't love ourselves enough 😉

Huston we have a problem, who can guess what it is and can tell me what the solution is, it's only happened since I've put the temperature up! http://youtu.be/a0dcoCyiS4g

I'll go and turn on the hot tap, ok at least 250ml through the hot water tap and not a drip from the group. I have the parts manual and yes I understand I'll wait for it to cool down and go and have a look. Definitely haven't cleaned it but yes we did take out the shower screens and seal at the same time, checking everything. Shot wasn't really bitter but it wasn't all that good either.

You want crap in there, wait until you see the first lot of photos!!! I'm amazed that there is so much for so little use over a short period of time!!! shower screens by Nic's Stuff, on Flickr top screen by Nic's Stuff, on Flickr group by Nic's Stuff, on Flickr I should add we never took anything else bar what is photographed, we never went as far as taking out the middle section in the group head shot.

Hello AM et al, A question if I may RE the EM6910 steam wand. I'm finding the attached 'holder' for it (the plastic thing that allows you to move it when hot) keeps sliding down when I'm steaming. Do you think a rubber sleeve would work? I'm not around the machine at the moment but I'm assuming a 10mm sleeve would fit?

Hi all, I just hijack this topic to confirm my question. Because I just bought the VST basket from "Muscles", now I am thinking a naked portafilter to go with it for EM6910. After search around, it seems like no other 3rd party PF can fit unless Sunbeam's factory one. If its true, then the naked PF is pretty expensive. (120 from Sunbeam, 80+postage from eBay and 120 from Pullman). Anyone has other solution? I did not want to modify mine old one into naked one. Because every now and then I still brew double shot for friend to save time. (lazy me). Cheers Colin

Normally when I turn on my EM6910 from cold, to begin with it makes a few noises with steam and water coming out through the drip try - I assume some kind of flush? Recently, for whatever reason, it hasn't been doing this. Any ideas as to why!? I'm just doing a clean now to see whether that fixes it??

Could be a bit of crap in the system...

Hope the user isn't a part of the system! Just did a full chemical back flush, will wait and see when cool what it does!

Hmm, after a good clean and back flush, still not happening?? Any other ideas AM?? Thanks. :-)
