    What does it mean if the single and double shot buttons are blinking white and not orange like in this video?

    When I add the descaling product and 1L of water, then press the two buttons and hold for 5 seconds, and set the wand setting, all four lights flash white but never give me the red light to go into descaling mode. Now im stuck not being able to descale my machine.

    The double espresso button does not move from flashing orange to solid white after the first stage of descaling. It just stays flashing. What do i do?

      Same! Maybe the U.S. version has the double espresso button remain flashing? I pressed it and it appears to have finished the descaling process. (?) 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Why does the grinder spit ground coffee around the handle as well as inside the handle. It makes a huge mess of fresh grind

    • @SmegUKOfficial
      @SmegUKOfficial  3 месяца назад

      Hello,
      Thank you for your comment, we are sorry to hear you've been having issues.
      It is important to position the portafilter correctly in the holder. The notches on the portafilter should sit just above the fixed supports. To ensure the best distribution of coffee into the filter, rocking it from side to side can help level out the ground coffee as it falls. We would also suggest using the cleaning brush provided to clean up into the grinder, in addition to the above this will encourage the coffee to fall out as evenly as possible.
      We hope this was helpful.

      Hi There,
      We recommend using liquid descalers, such as the SMEG branded one or alternatively OUST descaler

      Hello!
      We recommend cleaning your portafilter & steam wand after every use and descaling every 6-8 weeks.
