NESCAFÉ Dolce Gusto Genio S Automatic Coffee Machine, 0.8 liters, White by Krups

Product Information

DeLonghi claims the genio s can create beverages in under 30 seconds thanks to its 15 bar high-pressure pump, which it says perfectly extracts the maximum flavour and aroma from each coffee pod, delivering a luxurious, crema-rich coffee. As with all pod machines, the clean up afterwards is minimal; all grounds are designed to stay in the pod for a mess-free coffee every time. The amount of beverage depends on the size of the cup, the position of the drip tray, and sometimes the milk and coffee powders which are natural products that might show a small seasonality effect. Water or liquid is leaking outside the machine during beverage preparation. If the on/off button turns orange/yellow continuously (descaling warning), you should descale the machine. The reason why the capsule holder leaks on the side is probably due to the fact that the connection between the needle and the water tube is not perfectly tight any more. Over time, limescale slows the flow of water through your machine and can reduce the effectiveness of the heating element making your beverage less warm.

Only the capsule holder can be washed in the dishwasher. The drip tray and the water tank must be washed manually. For my manual machine, the user manual states that when you descale the machine you only use the Hot button. Then rinse with both Hot and Cold. Don't we also need to descale the cold water pipe? Above the green bars, you’ll find the cup icon that will activate the extraction process. Below that, a “shower” icon will light up when descaling is due. This can then be used to activate the descaling mode.When the power button is orange instead of green, it means that the descaling warning has been triggered. This feature is available on models produced since 2014. The machine is not supposed to be used as a water boiler. Without capsule the flow is higher, the heat transfer is lower and the temperature will probably not reach the expectation of consumers. Are there any other safety precautions I should take? I have small children and I am concerned about their safety. The frequency that you should descale the machine will depend on the water hardness and how frequently you use the machine.

We recommend daily cleaning to make sure you will continue to enjoy the great coffee experience you deserve. For tips on daily cleaning and more, consult the user manual. Can I put some piece of my machine in the dishwasher? Follow the instructions in your personal instruction manual for descaling your machine as techniques vary according to the model you own. We do not recommend the appliance to be used by children. This information is clearly stated in the User manual. What is the maximum of beverages a machine can make per day?

To ensure your full safety during the use of your machine, follow the "recommendations for safe use" in the manual that came with your machine. At the end of the preparation, the ON/OFF button flashes red for about 5 seconds. Do not open the handle during this time!
