      Breanna MillerAug 16, 2025
      If water leaks from the hot water outlet or a product outlet of your Douwe Egberts Coffee Maker, it's likely that scale particles are blocking the outlet valve, preventing it from closing completely. Perform the "Flush" program. Contact service if the problem persists.

    Why is my Douwe Egberts Cafitesse Excellence drink delivery blocked due to energy saving mode?
    • M
      Mary ThompsonAug 22, 2025
      The drink delivery may be blocked because the energy saving mode is activated. This mode will end automatically at the set time. Alternatively, you can press a drink button to increase the boiler temperature and dispense the drink as soon as the correct temperature is reached. The energy saving mode will become active again 10 minutes after the boiler was heated up or the last drink was dispensed.
