Krups evidence EA894t plus does not make steam and thus no milk froth,.
It does make tea water, and espresso/normal coffee also works

Coffee and tea is boiling hot, the pump seems to work, but very little, or some nothing comes out of the steam nozzle, even when the plastic part is completely removed nothing comes out.

Hot tea water does come out of this same duct, so the problem is further inside the machine.

If I select the option "frothed milk" and set it to 60 seconds then a very little steam comes out and some drops of water, but at the end of the program the pressure is discharged into the sump, looks like a blockage somewhere.

Anyone have an idea what it could be?

EDIT: I suspect it is in the distributor, the motor does run it in the correct position but seems like there is a blockage somewhere or something)

Hello,
probably never used the right descaler.
Descaler with amidosulfonic acid should run through this several times.

Had opened the distributor and looked clean (little scale build-up), but maybe something else was going on (maybe drainage valve) , couldn't find it so just replaced the whole distributor and now it's working fine again.
