DeLonghi Icona Pump Espresso ECOV310 (Vintage) Questions & Answers

Hi, Kerry, your referring to the top red light, mine stays on until I turn it off, mmm, maybe a fault with the unit . The second light, green, will come on once the unit it hot enough, I still get water out of it even when the light switches off ( I like a large latte).hope this helps, Linda

Hey Sigrid,
From my experience with the machine and what I've noticed there is 2 reasons why this handle is tight, first one when the machine is brand new the seal is new and tight but it gets softer as you use it and second reason is overfilling the container with coffee makes harder to lock in place, nothing to worry you won't break it, the machine is tougher than it looks. !!!!
Cheers

Hi Danieli

I just found out this machine is only good for 1 coffee a day??? Go figure!!! Is your handle clean?? (Where u put the coffee/pod)??? You might need to get a pin and clean every little hole and pull it all apart and scrub it clean. Hope this helps ???

Check if the machine is levelled

If that is happening then coffee is grounded too coarse. You could tango it firmer but coarser ground will do much better. Use the double with a coarser ground and fairly firm tamp. Should be about 20 second lag after pushing the button before coffee starts to flow

I've never had a problem with the crema. Try trouble shooting this on the internet. Good luck.

I only use a cheap grinder and although I am pretty good at getting a consistent grind, I have found that when I am a bit off (tired or just rushing) I have messed up my grind and it has affected the crema (too fine).

Other than that, as already stated - troubleshoot
