    What to do if Olympia Coffee Maker control lamp is on but water isn't heating?
    • R
      Robin HollowayAug 17, 2025
      If the control lamp lights up on your Olympia Coffee Maker, but the water doesn't heat up, check the water level and boiler to ensure there's water in the boiler. The thermostat safeguard may have switched the boiler off, in which case you should send the machine in for repair. Alternatively, the heating element might be broken and need replacement.

      If the espresso from your Olympia Coffee Maker is flowing out too quickly (extraction time below 20 seconds), check the temperature and pressure. If those are okay, grind the espresso finer, increase the amount of espresso, and/or tamp harder.

      If espresso flows out of the side of the portafilter of your Olympia Coffee Maker, it could be due to several reasons: - The portafilter may not be inserted properly, so inspect it. - There might be too much espresso in the basket, so check the amount of espresso you're using. - The edge of the portafilter might be dirty, so clean it. - The gasket might be blocked, so consider replacing it.

      If your Olympia Coffee Maker is working but no espresso is coming out, there might be no water in the boiler, so refill it. The espresso grind could be too fine, so check the grinder. Also, there might be too much espresso in the portafilter basket, so check the amount of espresso used.
