ALDI Expressi Machine Questions & Answers (page 4 of 16)

Turn off at the point and then back on after a few minutes, try again. It might be the electronics, if you have cockroaches they can build nests around components. If it's in the warranty period contact KFee in Melbourne and they should replace it. If it's outside warranty remove the cover and brush or blow out debris or insects check everything looks ok, restart and see if you havemade a difference.

It might be fixed by running a descaler through the machine,as coffee residue will build up throughout the machine, causing all sorts of problems.

The machine turns itself off automatically after 5 minutes, or you can switch it off at the plug socket.

The machine turns itself off.

I just bought an ALDI k-fee coffee machine off Facebook Marketplace and the machine is constantly spitting water instead of coffee when pressing the coffee button

Hope the machine is savable and I haven't bought a lemon

I suggest buying some descaler, it's not dear. Fill up your reservoir with water and a cap of descaler, the coffee residue builds up, thus blocking the flow. I hope this helps you.

Thank you so much for your prompt response! It started to work again after it had been turned off for a while, but I suspect it does need descaling as we have never done that up till now (unlike the Caffitaly we used to have that just seized up until you followed the laborious descaler process on a monotonously regulaf basis)!!l Really appreciate your help.

Yes they do and in my opinion the ALDI capsules are the best for taste and value.

Yes they do...

I suggest you run a descaler through your machine, I do it at least once a week, otherwise coffee residue will block the outflow.

The idea of these machines is for making lattes or cappuccino which is why it only dispenses a small amount of coffee, I suggest pressing the low button first, then put your pod in and press the button once again.

Absolute rubbish... My origanal machine filled an espresso cup... This thing is pure rubbish

I have no experience this will work but maybe fill water tank with hot water, fire up the clean/hot water first time use button and then leave it to sit, theory is it’ll clear a blockage, if not get some of the cleaning solution from Aldi and try that.

I suggest you buy a bottle of descaler and run a cap of it through the machine, it is probably blocked by coffee residue.

You need to flush the machine each time you turn it on. AND NEEDS to be FLUSHED FOUR TIMES WHEN FIRST USED.
So maybe this needs to happen when you first use it, or it won't piece the pod ??
The flush button is the far right button. After the flush, try loading the pod. After you have flushed the machine, the other two buttons are usable.
Also try removing the bin (tilt bin backwards slightly, then slide out). Ensure the water tank is sitting properly and full.
The machine will turn off automatically after five minutes of inactivity.
Remember to eject the pods after each use.
You can also program the length of the short and long cycle. From memory you hold the desired button down then left go when the correct volume.
But just get it working first :)

What is the issue? You MUST flush when you turn it on (far right button) Otherwise it won't let you use the other buttons. Lights flash for about 15 seconds, then you flush when the lights are solid.
Then should be good to go.

Water wouldn't come out of it at all when I was making a coffee. And this happened 3 times for 3 machines over 10 weeks.

My replacemmet machine from mckafee has lasted only Eight months, two months longer than the original which I had bought as a replacement to another which lasted 12 months.All three seemed to overheat and then no longer work. The last even buckled the outside of the machine. Never left them on, all burnouts just happened during the process to make a cup Back to plunger coffee for me

You have a faulty machine- this most certainly should NOT be happening.

Blowed if I know. Take it back, they have a really friendly returns policy.

Same problem. did you solve it?

To answer your question on your aldi coffee machine if the water is not hot u have a problem with your machine, return it back to the store, Aldi take back there things without question,

I bought mine at Aldis, I don't know if they work for Nespresso, but I know Nespresso have one too

Thanks-but couldnt find the K-fee pod holder at Aldi

Hello, I am wondering the same, they don't seem to sell the pod holders at ALDI anymore.

Problem solved, the lever needs to be down, to rinse :)

I am glad you solved it

Hi! Yes I have to do the same, I think it’s to flush the system out first. :)

yes the same here, unless you make another one straight away, then you don't need to rinse first

Thanks for the responses.

What sort of coffee are you using?
Have you used any different kinds of coffee?

The Aldi pods. And I have used different ones to test it out.
