Barry thanks. I read the whole threads!!! On top of that, Todd replied telling me that he would email his customers soon with detailed instructions in how to descal the machine. He said that draining the steaming boiler is very easy, just heating up the machine, then turning it off and finally opening the water knob. In addition to that, to drain the brew boiler the machines has to be cold. Then remove the large nut on top of the group along with the spring and plunger, and finally face the back the back of the machine towards the sink being careful no to scratch it.
As I said the detailed instructions are about to be released. On Jan 27, 11:34 am, Barry Luterman <[email protected]> wrote: > I would. However, WLL advises against owners doing it.
