    Hello.
    The nozzle through which water flows into the capsule is clogged. How is it cleaned?
    The coffee flowed slower and slower until it almost stopped.

    I just made a needle with a very thin tip and a little pushing on both sides and it started to fly, I have no instructions so I did not notice that this nozzle is in the capsule holder, I thought it was coming out of the tube with the express.

    one more question after removing the water container inside is such a tiny strainer, do you take it out for cleaning?
    I tried to pull it out slightly, it went up and how would it suck the water that was still in the strainer, pressed it back and it goes, but what is it and does it take out /

    the strainer is there to prevent any strange sediments from falling to the coffee machine, e.g. a stone from the tank. I recommend that you always let cold water through the handle after the milk capsule.
    besides, sometimes descale the coffee machine with some brand-name descaler ... jura saeco krups, etc.

    I don't know why you are writing about some branded descalers. After all, the Polish ones have the same chemical composition, and they are much cheaper. See at www.odkamieniacz.pl For 1 liter you will pay 30 zlotys, not 100.

    down Dolce Gusto can you use a liquid descaler, eg Saeco?

    I am asking because only the powder sachets are available on the manufacturer's website ... and I do not want to damage the equipment ...

    How much of this liquid should be poured for a one-time descaling?

    I have Dolce for over a year and I do not use a descaler, only once the nozzle gets choked, as I wrote above, but it is probably coffee. Somehow I have no conviction for such things.

    Hi!

    I am the happy owner of Dolce Gust - coffee is actually very good. I like the orange Lungo and the yellow Grande Aroma the most.

    unfortunately, like most of you - I had a problem with the nozzle. The coffee was brewing for a very long time, it literally burned by a drop, which made me angry - because I usually don't have that much time for my morning coffee ;)

    Clipping the nozzle - unfortunately it did not help me, so I decided to use the old, effective in other situations method :)

    namely - I added some vinegar to the water (I had only the wine on hand :) ). I turned on the coffeemaker iii .... it unplugged itself. then I rinsed it with only water - I just poured it - as if I were making coffee, but without the capsule.

    Hear! revelation! the whole procedure lasted 20 minutes, without picking, digging, getting tired or afraid of breaking something! :)

    Now I drink a cup of coffee (for the first time after the treatment) and I don't feel any vinegar. even if it is there, it is not harmful to the body in that amount.

    The only disadvantage of this method is that you smell vinegar at home :) and it needs to be aired :D

    Best wishes! :)

    The manual is beautifully described on the Internet. For coffee to run, the nozzle must be clean and stony from water and coffee. These coffee machines have a descaling function :) just read the instructions. I will not describe it exactly because a lot of it, but in short, you press 5 seconds, the switch starts flashing, you pour a sachet into 1 liter of water. Later 45s on hot, it stops on cold, same anyway. And it's ready.

    patent with water + vinegar works 100%! I have an old krups that did not have a cleaning function yet. I pour a solution of water with vinegar, pour hot water over the entire container, then rinse the water container thoroughly, pour in clean water, pour 10 seconds hot, then cold to the end and you can put a capsule - you don't smell the vinegar anymore. I've always cleaned this way and it works :)

    Solution 2 (water) to 1 (vinegar) works wonders! My Dolce Gusto coffeemaker spewed less and less water until it stopped completely. It was just humming. First, I decided to descale it with proven citric acid, but nothing helped. Only the vinegar method helped, and it did so right away. You don't need to buy any fancy resources. Thanks for the advice! I'm going to have a cup of coffee :-D

Topic summary

The discussion centers on cleaning clogged nozzles in Dolce Gusto coffee machines, specifically models by Krups. Users report issues with reduced water flow and slow coffee brewing, often leading to complete blockage. Suggested cleaning methods include using a thin wire or needle to clear the nozzle, and employing a vinegar solution (1 part vinegar to 2 parts water) to effectively unclog the system. Some users recommend regular descaling with branded descalers, while others suggest that cheaper alternatives with similar chemical compositions are effective. The importance of maintaining the tiny strainer inside the water container is also highlighted, as it prevents sediment from entering the machine. Overall, vinegar and proper maintenance are emphasized as key solutions to restore functionality.
