During the rinsing steps, you need to empty the container and refill the water tank before moving the lever to cold. Otherwise it will overflow and empty the tank before it has finished.
Fill the container with vinegar 1/2 and 1/2 water. Move it to the hot position and empty all the container. Fill again the container with water move it to the hot until the water stops and this is it.
This is our second K-Classic. We had our first one for many years, so when we had to replace it, we wanted nothing else but this exact ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf model. We use it for about three people everyday in the morning. The taste and quick brew is one of the reasons we like it so much. There are so many choices of brands of coffee that we would grab what was on sale and test the different brands from there. I would definitely recommend trying different brands of coffee to find the ones you like the most because there are brands that quite frankly taste horrible.
2023 and still not dead, although the tank's seal has perished and water spills everywhere, if left long enough. I should probably buy a new one, or at the very least clean it, but I won't. Not in this economy. Huzzah!
Tried the descaler - still had an orange light so tried a wee bit of washing up liquid in the water container and ran that through on hot - worked a treat!
500ml water + descaler doesn’t fill up to the MAX water levelmarker, so i thought i should copy the video and added more water😅 did i just ruin the descaling solution?🤭😆 got a lot of remaining solutionmixture after turning the hot and cold lever to descale
Nič ne teče-potrebno bo čiščenje po tem prikaztu,ali kupiti nov aparat.1 leto je star,nikoli ščičen od vodnega kamna.Mnogo napitkov kave sem naredil.Aparat Mini Me je odličen!
Anybody know the procedure if the Orange light, is on, but not flashing. I have run 2 sachets of Delongi de- scaler through the machine but cannot get the Green light on.
Step 1 works OK but when reach at rinsing step it's not working. I'm pressing in the right for hot rinse and doesn't start at all. For cold rinse it's just taking out a few drops of water. What is happening? Thx!
Nekünk a hidegnél csinálta ugyanezt, a meleg jó volt a hidegnél visszaugrott automatikusan. Én azt vettem észre, hogy a szintválasztót megkocoktatva úgy marad! Szerintem kikopott az évek során. Lehet hogy nálad is ez a baj?
I had the same issue. I think descaling (cold) wasn't finished cuz water ran out; I tried letting it go through cold (it flowed for a little while), waited for a few minutes and tried hot, it continued on same as the video.
I love my machine and the coffee it makes but WHY are the capsules made of plastic?!?! They are a single-use item so why can't they be made from an compressed organic fibre material that can be composted after use?!?! The amount of plastic I have to throw in the bin each week just to enjoy a great cup of coffee is shocking!
This video actually helped, I didn't even know there was a cleaning needle in the back of my DeLonghi Dolce Gusto machine. Thank you!
Where is it I didn't see ????
@@makeupbymannna It sits in a rounded groove in the lower back of the machine, behind the water tank
I didn't know until I read your comment 😂
Not sure it’s for cleaning. I think it’s to make a hole in the pods.

Just bought a Minime second hand, this was very helpful!

PSA: I bought mine in 2015, have never descaled and I'm not dead yet! Excelsior!
Hehe....put the kettle on, I'll have a cup of tea. Wait....how's your kettle?
There’s time yet 😜
yesh bro and what? If you got very soft water that's a no suprise.

@@TheMitchingHour Health issues will start sooner. Just remember this machine when they show up early.
Save the solution & descale your kettle too, Durgol is really good stuff - I've used it about 8 times before the effectiveness wanes 👍
Tried the descaler - still had an orange light so tried a wee bit of washing up liquid in the water container and ran that through on hot - worked a treat!
Does Mini Me have indication when descaling is needed? I heard that power button should turn yellow when you need descale is that true with Mini Me?
I don't know
No, it doesn't have this function.
Thank you, that was exactly what I needed.
After the all the rinsing/descaling, the power button is not blinking red and green, just green.. is this okay?
That's what I want to know.

Mine pops back to centre after a few seconds then switches off. Impossible to descale
You need to hold the on/off button down for at least 5 seconds until it starts blinking green to get the machine into descaling mode.

Enter in the descaling mode?
just remember after hot or cold, you need to refill the water tank, or you will run out of water
I dont have a button on mine, not sure which type is it! 😢
When do i need to descale the machine bro?
While rinsing, you should fill the tank between the hot and cold steps.
Does anyone knows if I can use Urnex Cafiza E42 tablets for the mini me? I 've done a lot of search with no success. Has anyone use this product?

Same here....I'm stumped
@@ianmiller2349 Until now I couldn't figure where the problem is...
Same!!
Had the same issue but you have to remove the water container and put it back again. Then it works.
@@Emilia-iz8df for next cleaning I will try this. Thanks!
thank you
Ty good video easy to follow
Levver?
2:50 This doesn't work for me. The lever goes back to the center immediately. To the left direction works only. What's wrong?

@@nelsontzb exactly the same. I had to wait before it would switch to the right. (mines a 2015 model).
متى تحتاج لهذا التنظيف وكل متى يجب تنظيفها؟؟؟
كل ثلاث اشهر
Thats what i need. Thx😁
