Why is my HAYGAIN HG-600 Kitchen Appliances taking longer to steam forage?

  Your HAYGAIN Kitchen Appliances may be taking longer to steam forage because the ambient or water temperature is lower than usual. In this case, steam the forage longer, ensuring the thermometer reaches 80°C. You can also use hot water in the steam generator to reduce steaming time. Another possible cause is limescale buildup on the heating element, which reduces efficiency. Clean and descale the steam generator after it cools down. Finally, insufficient electrical voltage can also cause this issue. Check the power supply and try turning off other appliances. If voltage is the issue, steam the forage longer, ensuring the thermometer reaches 80°C, or use hot water in the steam generator.

  If the steam generator trips the circuit breaker, it might be due to an insufficient power supply. Ensure the steam generator is connected to a sufficient power supply and try turning off other appliances. If you are unsure, contact a qualified electrician. Another cause could be a damp steam generator. Allow it to dry for 24 hours in a warm, dry environment, keeping the floor nearby dry.
