ECAM 26.455 MB no milk foam

Hello to the advice of the wise :-)

I replaced all 3 solenoid valves of my ECAM 26.455MB with new ones, the milk coupling has the 3 seals new and with 3 foamers no proper milk foam can be achieved. 2 foamers make a little thin foam (even just by turning back and before turning the foam consistency knob on the foamer) and the third only lets out hot steam. Since I have already swapped the parts listed above, I would be grateful for advice on where to look for and solve the problem.

Many thanks in advance

Order a new milk clutch and it should work, you won't see why and why, but it's due to this clutch.

MfG Chris

thank you very much for the info. I've already thought about that and have ordered as a precaution. Should be there tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Then we know more. I wouldn't have had another idea either.

New clutch is installed and the result is better, but not yet perfect.
I tried another foamer, where the result was even better.
So the problem is probably a combination of clutch and foamer.
Since I can live with the result, the problem is solved.
Many thanks for the hint.

Thanks for your feedback

MfG Chris

Moin people, maybe I can give you another approach.
It doesn't always have to be the valve or the milk coupling.
I also had the problem with my ECAM 26.455 that there was very little milk foam and it spewed more out of the output tube.
Finally, a thermostat of the steam heating also burned through.
I had already checked and cleaned all solenoid valves, replaced the seals on the milk coupling and reinstalled the temperature sensor of the steam heating with heat conducting paste.
All this didn't help.
Then I noticed by chance that one of the wires of the temperature sensor was not in order-it wasn't completely cut, but the wire was a little damaged.
After I have replaced the temperature sensor now it works again with the milk foam - wonderful.
