Good day together,
on Monday my watchdog struck.
After I started running, I could actually make loot and am now proud owner of a Quickmill 5500 OA "Super Cappuccino".
Announced for 40€ DEFEKT, it then changed owners for more than twice the amount!!
I disassembled and cleaned the machine in the brewing group area. The outlet in the brewing cylinder was completely clogged and coated with 1-5mm thick "coffee charcoal". The machine service did a lot of "work" here. Housing removed and some coffee modder removed from pump area. Otherwise no leaks, rust or other abnormalities.
Today I put the machine into operation and am very impressed how the machine can conjure up an espresso. Also the milk foam is usable but with a bit of coarse-pored foam.
Now a few questions to the experts:
Where can I find a useful spare parts service for the Quickmill (I already found O-rings for 8€ .
The milk foam release becomes somewhat inconstant after approx. 5 sec. (there is also some water flowing next to steam in the hose to the cappuccinatore), something can be optimized here?
I would also like to flush through the brewing unit, WITHOUT starting the grinding process. Is there a trick here?
Greeting,
Funcross
