Is so true. I I returned a coffee maker before and water got all over the
place. Another suggestion would be leaving the maker upside down for 24
hours, that also helps. Basically, any coffee products, espresso makers,
anything just leave upside down that also helps it dries the heck out of it
Great tip, ladies. Thanks! -Chris
No; you just have to make sure you go through the priming process again
like you did when you first got the machine. As long as you do that, you’re
fine. – Kat
You’re welcome! Glad it was helpful 🙂 – Kat
What about filling up the pump with water when you do want to use it again?
I thought that damage would be done to the machine if the machine is turned
on and there isn’t any water in the pump
You’re welcome! Glad it was helpful for you 🙂 – Kat
Thanks for the how-to! But what about a HX machine? It’s basically a single
boiler, isn’t it? How’d draining look like on the NS Oscar for instance, or
any heat exchanger?
Yup! It’ll post early next week – Kat
Good point! I knew there was some instance why one might need to keep it
open. – Kat
Stay tuned next week – we did one for Hx and dual boiler as well. – Kat
Great idea! – Kat
Thanks Gail and Kat!
No, no, no … thank YOU – Kat
Great series ladies; always helpful, as usual… I’ll take spareidentidy’s
comments and raise it to a dual boiler… Will you be including one in your
‘drainage’ series?
Very helpful! Thanks! I didn’t even think of this
Yay! 🙂 – Kat
