Frequently Asked Questions - Milano ZCM6255 Zelmer

How do I descale the coffee machine?

Disconnect the appliance and let it cool. Fill the water tank with water and descaling solution to MAX level (refer to descaler instructions). Place a container under the brewing head and another under the steam wand. Turn on the machine, press the power button, and wait for the 1 cup, 2 cup, and manual buttons to illuminate solidly. Then, dispense water through the brewing head and steam wand repeatedly until the tank is empty. Refill with clean water and flush the system.

How to clean the steam wand after frothing milk?

Immediately after use, place an empty jug under the steam wand, turn on the steam control knob, and press the manual button to pump water for 30 seconds. Stop the pump, then wipe the steam nozzle and sleeve with a wet sponge. Remove the sleeve and rinse under warm water. If blocked, use a small pin to clear the holes.

What should I do if water leaks from the bottom of the machine?

Check if the drip tray is full and clean it. If the leak persists, the machine may be malfunctioning. Contact an authorized service facility for repair.

How to make cappuccino?

First, prepare an espresso using the 1 cup or 2 cup button. Then press the steam button and wait for the steam indicator to light solidly. Fill a jug with 100-150 ml of cold whole milk. Insert the steam wand 1-2 cm into the milk, turn the steam control knob anticlockwise slowly, and move the jug up and down to froth. Once done, turn off the steam and pour the frothed milk over the espresso.

Why does the machine make a loud noise when pumping water for the first time?

This is normal. The noise is caused by air being released from the system. It should disappear after about 20 seconds. If it continues, ensure the water tank is properly seated and filled.

How do I use the manual button?

Press the manual button to start brewing. The machine will pump water for up to 120 seconds. Press the manual button again to stop when you have reached your desired coffee amount. The manual button also works for rinsing: press it to run water for about 30 seconds.

What does the auto power-off function do?

If there is no operation for 25 minutes, the machine automatically powers off to save energy and for safety. You can restart by pressing the power button.

Why is steam not frothing milk?

Ensure the milk frothing indicator is illuminated (steam button solidly lit). Use whole or half-skimmed milk in a tall, narrow container. Also, check that the steam nozzle is clean. If blocked, clean it with a damp sponge and a pin if necessary.

How to preheat the machine before first use?

Fill the water tank, insert the portafilter empty and lock it. Place a mug under the outlet. Press the power button and wait for the 1 cup, 2 cup, and manual buttons to stop pulsing and stay solid. Then press the manual button to pump water for 30 seconds. Repeat this rinsing process 3-4 times. Also, let water flow from the steam wand for 30 seconds. The machine is now ready.

What should I do if the coffee tastes acidic?

After descaling, run several cycles of clean water to remove any descaler residue. Also, use fresh coffee powder stored in a cool, dry place. If the problem persists, the coffee powder may be stale; replace it with a fresh batch.
