What to do if my SOLIS Coffee Maker doesn't work?
If your SOLIS Coffee Maker isn't working, first ensure it's plugged into a functioning power outlet and that the ON/OFF button is pressed until the button frames light up blue. Check the power supply to rule out any short circuits or power issues. If the problem persists, it may indicate a fault with the espresso machine.
Why does coffee only slowly run out of the portafilter of my SOLIS Coffee Maker?
If coffee runs slowly or not at all from your SOLIS Coffee Maker's portafilter, ensure the water tank is filled and correctly installed. Check that your coffee isn't ground too finely, and you're using the right amount. Also, avoid tamping the coffee too hard. Clean the filters if they're clogged. If the steam mode button is lit, press it again until all buttons light up blue.
Why is the coffee from my SOLIS BARISTA GRAN GUSTO cold?
If the coffee from your SOLIS Coffee Maker is cold, pre-warm your cups with warm water. Before brewing, run water through the appliance with the portafilter (with filter but without coffee) for about 20 seconds to warm up all parts. For cappuccinos or lattes, ensure the milk is adequately heated.
Why does the espresso from my SOLIS Coffee Maker taste of descaling solution or sour?
If the espresso from your SOLIS Coffee Maker tastes of descaling solution or sour, thoroughly rinse the machine multiple times as described in “Before first use” to remove any descaling residue. Always use freshly ground coffee, and store it properly in a cool, dry place, ideally in the fridge after opening.
Why is the steam failing to steam the milk in my SOLIS Coffee Maker?
If the steam on your SOLIS Coffee Maker isn't steaming milk, make sure the steam mode button is activated (lights up blue while coffee mode buttons are off). Use a tall, slim stainless steel milk jug. Avoid using skimmed milk; opt for unskimmed or semi-skimmed milk instead.
Why does coffee run through my SOLIS BARISTA GRAN GUSTO Coffee Maker too quickly?
If coffee runs through your SOLIS Coffee Maker too quickly, ensure your coffee isn't ground too coarsely and that you're using enough coffee in the filter insert. Tamp the ground coffee more firmly.
What to do if water is pooled under my SOLIS BARISTA GRAN GUSTO?
