I’ve got the espresso down but I’ve thrown away more milk trying to froth it. How long do I have to wait for the valid button to come on. All the frother does is pour hot water on my counter.

I recently bought the XP2070. I would prefer to make 3 cups or shots of espresso instead of the two. My earlier version which was a lesser model could make 3 or 4 shots. Is that possible on this one? Also, I can not figure out how to froth the milk. You would think it could all be done within the same cycle but do you have to perform two different tasks for espresso and then frothing? thanks!

I have a new machine and have the same problem with the drip tray filling with water on the esspresso side. It seems to be originating inside the machine somewhere. Any suggestions as to how to correct would be helpful

Shaggy – on the espresso side, where is the water coming from before it gets to the drip tray? Can you see it getting in on the outside? Or is it originating inside the machine somewhere?

One year into our Krups xp2070 and both the esspresso side and coffee side are having major issues. The coffee side leaks half the water from the bottom onto our kitchen floor and the other half makes coffee. The espresso side dumps water into the drip tray and until full and then onto the floor. Any idea on how to fix as I am sure the warentee is up.

The XP2070 works great until the bypass valves fail and then the espresso maker will send all the water to the drip tray. This is a major problem on this machine.

Ensure water is in left hand removable receptacle.
Switch on machine (Left hand on/off button).
Remove espresso handle and select size of filter – one cup or two cup. Fill filter with coffee and tamp down. Replace handle to machine and press second button down once for single filter size or twice for double filter size. This will then initiate brew. (ensure cup is underneath of course).
When done, you will hear a beep.
Press bottom left hand button to initiate steam function. Display will read “Valid” when ready.
Press same button again to start steamer. Press a third time to stop it.

Hope this helps.
