Problem with Mini Vivaldi II

[Aracel]

Hello everyone,

I got a problem with my machine. I hope you could help me on this. The brewed coffee is not that hot. I brewed again to find out the temperature using the stick thermometer that I use for steaming by putting it on the brewed coffee. The temperature was 120 degrees, the bar was on 8. There is paddle of water on top of the puck. I tried setting it on 94C and the temperature was 140F. When I tried adjusting the coffee bean to a courser setting, the bar is on 4 when it was brewing and the brewed coffee coming out was too light and too much. I also have problem with steaming. When I steamed the milk, it stretched too fast that the milk spills over the pitcher at 100 degrees or less. Before this things happened, I did not have problem, although, the bar goes to between 7.5 and 8 when it is brewing and to 9 bar when it stops. The steaming was great. I did not have this kind of problem.

I would appreciate it very much if any of you could give me your comments. Thank you so much in advance.
