Thanks! I got the C90 second hand for free and had no idea that it was strictly manual, I was so confused because I know that all the machines now are automatic
Thanks for the video, I have another question about the compact brewing kit, I accidentally put the wrong capsule in and somehow brake the compact brewing kit that the thing doesn't push the capsule all the way through which means the capsule can't poke holes correctly. can I fix it? or I need to replace it with a whole new part? Thank you
I also have a C90 and I’d like to know how to remove the metal plate with holes that the large end of the coffee capsule is pushed against and is where the water pushes the coffee through. I think I need to clean all of the holes as water that is not going through the capsuleis dropping down into the capsule bin when I make coffee. I’m able to remove the spout on the front but apparently I need to disassemble the unit to get to that part? Thanks in advance for your help.
@@uaremymuse1 vinegar will descale the coffee (its whats in the descale solution). Taking if apart is an option. See here ruclips.net/video/UA-9t364Mus/видео.html
Thanks for the video URL but it didn’t show how to remove the circular metal plate. It was about the pump. How many times do you think I’ll need to pass vinegar through the machine for it to clear the holes?
I’ve run vinegar through the machine by filling the water tank about 30 times. After the 2nd tank, the water stopped dripping out from within the machine so I thought the issue had been resolved. So I opened the handle to let the excess water to escape, closed the handle (as if it had a pod inserted) and started on a 3rd tank of vinegar and the dripping from within began again. It’s as if a vacuum is occurring after running a couple of tanks and not opening the handle and that vacuum is stopping the leakage. So in effect, the usage of vinegar after 5 tanks had not cleaned the holes in that metal plate. So I ran around 25 tanks of vinegar without opening the handle, and again, the leakage stopped on the 2nd tank. So after running an additional 23 tanks without opening the handle, again, there was no leakage. After those 30 tanks, I again opened the handle to allow any leftover vinegar to escape, I closed the handle and began running a new tank and the leakage started again. My question is this. After removing the sides of the machine, as well as removing the spout, what do I remove to get that circular metal disk out to clean the holes with a wire and what size wire do I need to use? (I forgot to tell you that I also used a toothbrush in the aforementioned process of running vinegar through the machine.
The trick with the old pen to open the panhead screws was just great! Thank you!

I am having trouble removing the water tank from the back to re-fill. All of a sudden it' stuck and doesn't want to shift! Any suggestions?
Thanks for that video! I need to find a piston for a C90, seems impossible to find! Any places where I can get one!
Thanks a lot
Please can you tell me how to reset a Nespresso Delonghi en90m
Not familiar with that model. Sorry.
Is this machine same de longhi EN97.W ? Thanks
I believe that is the euro equivalent. Yes
Thanks for the video. Can you tell me the big capacitor voltage. Thanks
I found a repair kit on eBay that lists the capacitor as 680nF, 275V. That's for Europe.
I have a model GCC1. Stopped working.
Tried descaling the machine. Water will not flow through the machine. Any suggestions?
Sorry, dont know that model. Suggest you open it up and carefully disconnect hoses, see if water flowing along path.

Not sure, me repairs were limited to electrical problems. Sounds like you need to replace the plastic housing though.

My experience has been taking it apart is not worth to clean. Suggest a toothbrush and simple vinegar. Run vinegar through the machine too.
1. Why would vinegar go through it if water won’t? 2. Is it that difficult to disassemble? Thanks for responding.

Mine seems to blink twice fast then pause? The pump works if I turn it off and hold the button down and turn it on. So pump seems to work. Any ideas?
My guess would be, first try changing the capacitors.
Mine is blinking fast… never stops blinking. Wtf
Check the user manual to make sure its not in Cleaning Mode. If not that, its likely one of the capacitors.
