I prime it but only steam from the froth comes out no water comes out as you push clean or double cappuccino can you tell me why_ or by any chance you know
Tamper sucks, once I modded my barista kit out (Calibrated Tamper, WDT, Bottomless Portafilter (Portafilter Basket size is 51mm by the way which customer service will refuse to tell you because they don't want you to mod the experience.) And coffee scale (15 gram basket, measure no more and no less than that) also an $80 Grinder from Shardor on Amazon around the 5 setting on it served me very well) Keep the grouphead clean and and that set up brings out the best in this machine. Once dialed in with that correct setup, it makes wonderful espresso. I used double shot espresso on it, and measured milk in a froth and steamer from Farberware for many different espresso drinks. I finally moved on from this machine and gave it to a friend. I now stepped it up to a Semi Automatic machine from Ultima Cosa. Chefman Barista Pro is in my opinion the best for absolute beginners who are just starting out
My issue is when I select double latte it puts out about equal part milk to coffee, that is NOT a latte, and it’s on a brand new machine that I followed the directions on operating, primed first and everything. Feel like this machine is falsely advertised as a “touch once and it’s done” when in reality you have to press double latte once, then press froth about 4 or 5 times to get the proper amount of milk for a latte.
@@ceej93 like I said above, get a separate thing that both froths and steams, much better results. Get the whole correct setup I mentioned above and dial it in perfectly for best results
I did the prim and I kept noticing it had some sort of salt looking residue on the bottom. The very first one came out cloudy as well.

I just tried mine out. I hate it. It sucks. It seems weak AF.

@@2NDFLB-CLERK manually stop it. That will make it stronger. Try putting in an ims basket too for better extraction
