  There could be several reasons why no steam is coming from the steam tube, or why it stops before frothing is complete: * Allow the machine to cool completely. * Ensure the boiler is filled. * Verify the switch is turned on. * Confirm the Espresso/Steam Control Knob is in the Steam position. * Close the Steam Control Knob, remove and wash the Steam Nozzle. * Unblock the Steam Tube using a straight pin, then try again.
