Why does my eta NERO 5180 have no foam (crema)?
The lack of foam (crema) in your coffee may be due to the coffee beans not being fresh or being of low quality. Consider changing your coffee brand or using fresh coffee. Alternatively, the grind size may be too coarse. Try setting a finer grind size.
