Why is my ECM Casa V Coffee Maker producing foam instead of crema?
If your ECM Coffee Maker is producing foam instead of crema, the coffee beans you're using might be unsuitable; try another type. Also, the coffee grinder setting might not be appropriate for the beans you're using, so adjust the grinder accordingly.
Why is the coffee dispension from my ECM Coffee Maker irregular?
If the coffee dispension from your ECM Coffee Maker is irregular, the filter might be blocked; try cleaning it. The grind might also be incorrect, so change the grind.
Why is there little or no crema on my ECM Coffee Maker?
If your ECM Coffee Maker produces little or no crema, several factors could be at play. It might be that the grind is not fine enough, in which case you should use a finer grind, tamp the ground coffee more firmly, or reduce the brewing pressure. Alternatively, the coffee could be too old, so try using fresh coffee. High chlorine levels in your water can also be a culprit, so consider using a chlorine filter. Ensure you're using enough coffee, about 7-9 grams per cup. Lastly, a dirty shower screen can affect crema, so clean the brew group.
What to do if my ECM Casa V Coffee Maker dispenses coffee drop by drop?

You might also be using too much ground coffee; aim for approximately 7-9 grams per cup. Also, make sure that the water tank isn't empty and refill it if needed.
