  If the steam nozzle on your Krups Coffee Maker seems partially or completely blocked, dismantle the nozzle from its support using the dismantling key. Start the rinse cycle for the One Touch Cappuccino block to remove any remaining deposits. Clean the steam nozzle, ensuring that the opening is not obstructed by milk remains or limescale. If necessary, use the cleaning needle.

  If there is water underneath your Krups Coffee Maker, wait 15 seconds after the coffee has finished flowing before removing the water tank to allow the appliance to finish its cycle properly. Check that the drip tray is correctly positioned on the machine and that it is always in place, even when the appliance is not in use. Ensure that the drip tray is not full and that it is not removed during a cycle.

Why no steam comes out of my Krups EA891?
- G

  If no steam comes out of the steam nozzle of your Krups Coffee Maker, first ensure that the nozzle is not blocked. If the issue persists, empty the water tank and temporarily remove the Claris cartridge. Refill the tank with mineral water that has a high calcium content (over 100 mg/l), and then run steam cycles (5 to 10) consecutively into a container until a continuous jet of steam is obtained. Finally, put the cartridge back in the tank.

Why can't I get an extra shot from my Krups Coffee Maker?
- B
  barbarapadillaSep 15, 2025
  If, after preparing a drink, you ask for an extra shot and the machine tells you that this is not possible with your Krups Coffee Maker, the coffee grounds collector is full and the extra shot function is not available. Once your drink has been made, you can prepare an espresso after emptying the coffee grounds collector.

Why is Krups EA891 Coffee Maker coffee too weak?
- B
  Brittney LeeSep 6, 2025
  If the coffee from your Krups Coffee Maker is too lightly coloured or too weak, avoid using oily, caramelised, or flavoured coffee beans. Check that the coffee bean container has coffee and is dispensing correctly. Decrease the preparation volume and increase the drink's strength using the Dark function. Adjust the grinding fineness dial to the left for finer grounds. You might also make the drink in two cycles using the 2 cups function.

  If the water tank has been filled, but the warning message is still displayed on the screen of your Krups Coffee Maker, check that the tank is installed correctly on the device. Ensure the float at the bottom of the tank moves freely; unblock it if necessary.
