DeLonghi Nespresso Lattissima I Refurbishing and Deep Cleaning

For the first time I had the opportunity to overhaul a DeLonghi capsule machine. After disassembling, I saw that a lot of parts were installed here that are also used in DeLonghi's large fully automatic coffee machines. All plastics used also felt very high quality. I am sure that this capsule machine, with proper care, will prepare delicious coffee specialties for many years.

Thank you for the comprehensive teardown. This was really helpful. 😊

One of the best videos I've ever watched on KZbin. The previous owner of this machine should be banned from ever owning a DeLonghi machine again.

[@TheFlyingEd]

Thanks so much for posting this video. You helped me a great deal fixing the coffee machine. Ordered a new brewing part and it works like a charm again!

[@jakibros]

I am IMPRESSED! I am suffering with a air lock on my lattissima pro. Working off of your video. Fixed my own Apple lap tops in the past. I am hopeful I can fix this. The coffee at the end was so gratifying!

[@dejedejsson]

Hello, Thanks for the good "how to do" videos, will certainly come in handy as I just bought a Delonghi 22.110b.

[@rolandgunner0124]

Great video, thanks! One tip I can add. At 18:56, I could not get the tube back in at all, not even close. It turns out that at 17:32 I had inserted the clear plastic sleeve the opposite way that it had been originally assembled. Since the "other end" never had the tube inserted, it was fresh and too tight. I removed and reversed the clear plastic sleeve, so the "used" end was facing outward.

Thank you so much 😀

Great job. I love watching your videos

Sehr gut .... Ich mochte ausgezeichnete Arbeit, echt professionell. Ich bin ein Techniker von Lavazza Brasil und schaue mir immer Ihre Videos an und lerne immer etwas dazu.

I‘m ❤ it !

[@juvenalsantos6005]

Very useful video, quite self-explained, good job. Badly I've been suffering with a leak on my Latissima. Right on the top at the joint where it's inserted the capsule. I've already dismounted and cleaned, but the problem persists, could be necessary to replace the entire compartment?

[@yt.myworks]

As a rule, it is sufficient to change all relevant seals. All the others are very robust and last a very long time.

[@rollsroycer123rbx9]

I’m glad to see that this machine was refurbished to a usable and clean state😊 I think it’s sad to see that some people do this to their machines without caring about them. Do you mind telling me more about how you got this machine and how it ended up that dirty?

[@yt.myworks]

I go to a local recycling center every week to dispose of plastic packaging, bottles and other items in an environmentally friendly way. There is a container where you can dispose of e-waste. Sometimes you can find treasures like the machine in my video ;-) This DeLonghi device was calcified and clogged, which is why it stopped working.

[@jakibros]

Reassembled everything but I cannot get the power to pop back into the the circuit board no matter what I do. Any suggestions?

Bravissimo

Great job! Do you know how to fix the milk frothing on one of these machines. Ours is about 6 years old and the milk buttons just flash when connecting the milk container!?

[@yt.myworks]

Hello, unfortunately I can't say that but it could have something to do with the temperature. Maybe a reset can help, you can probably find on the internet how to do it.

[@yt.myworks]

Hello, I thought of something else. If the milk froth does not work, then it is usually due to the container coupling 07:43. You should disassemble them and clean them with a milk system cleaner. Alternatively, you can buy a new part.

[@aris1956]

Ich hätte jetzt nicht gedacht, dass die Maschine in so viele Teilen zerlegt lässt.

[@amq911]

Other than descaling regularly, are there any maintenance needed can be done ?

[@yt.myworks]

I recommend keeping the machine as clean as possible, regularly rinsing it without a coffee capsule, descaling it frequently and generally keeping the device clean. You can also try using a small brush to remove the coffee residue from the top.

[@aris1956]

25:05 Und hier kommt jetzt sozusagen die Stunde der Wahrheit ! Ich hätte nicht gedacht, dass die Maschine, in der Zustand in der sie war und nach dem total zerlegt wurde, hinterher noch einwandfrei funktionieren würde. 👍😊👏👏

[@89castle89]

Excellent video. Pity that after you complete the refurbishment, you didn't show us how you start up the machine and whether you encounter air lock issue, if so how you overcome that?

[@yt.myworks]

I didn't think about that, but as far as I can remember there were no problems with the water flow. Sometimes the water pump makes a loud noise when it runs without water at the beginning. But if there is no water after a short time, then there is another problem.

[@alessandrobriasco5492]

Remember if the gasket was the same on both sides? Let me explain! Since it leaks water from above when I put a capsule under pressure, I wondered if the shape of the gasket was correct and not to be changed. Is it round on both data like a classic gasket?

[@yt.myworks]

I don't know that exactly, but didn't have a seal, a special shape? Did you use original Nescafé capsules? Some have a different shape than the original capsules.

[@helmutsilver5006]

Wondering if it's possible to get some guidance. I have this same machine - lovingly used and cared for. We live in a very soft water area, never have problems with limescale. I came to use the machine today as I do most days and managed to make one perfect coffee from start up. I moved on to the second and without any weird noises or drama, you know how you have the kind of 'pulsing' pumping of the milk, well the machine managed about three slightly sputtering pumps of milk which came out foamed and then all the remaining pumps come out as sporadic spurts of water with an odd burst of steam, but the coffee glass, at the end of a full 'latte' cycle has literally a couple of inches of hot white water at most before the coffee dispenses into it. I've tried the routine several times. I've tried the steam cleaning routing several times and it works as expected. But then go back to make hot foam milk and I get the same again - three faltering pumps of white foamy niceness which then gets replaced with occasional random spurts of hot water and steam as the foamed milk cycle runs its course to ultimate failure. I searched this video out on KZbin because I knew my starting place would be to remove the milk hopper and get that cap mechanism open and make sure all pipes and parts are clean, and the thing was virtually squeaky clean in all its parts and after re-assembly I'm still at the same stage. So I'm guessing there's a pump problem? Is that a pump failure or sound like a blockage somewhere? Where specifically should I be looking and can anyone direct me to any parts that I might need. Repairing this sounds a whole lot more viable than spending £350 buying another, especially when it's seemingly in great condition and such a nicely built and robust piece of kit that can be easily disassembled and repaired... Would really appreciate some direction, please.

[@helmutsilver5006]

@@yt.myworks Thanks for that. It was the descaling it needed! Job done. Also stripped the squeaky clean milk hopper head and gave it a soak and scrub for good measure. Job done!

[@BASenok1987]

you use new o-ring in brew group or old?

[@yt.myworks]

I left the old o-rings in, the seals weren't worn out.

Witaj, mam problem z moim ekspresem DeLonghi ecam, przy startowym płukaniu bardzo wolno się płuka, tzn. leci kropla za kroplą przy robieniu kawy tak samo kawa się robi godzinami a wyłania się tak po 10 s pracowania pompy, raczej nie jest to wina pompy bo gdy biorę od niej gorąca wodę(ze spieniacza), działa bez problemu, był już rozkręcany bo poprzedni właściciel oddał go gdyż nie dało się go nawet odkamienić przez zepsute sprzęgło od spieniacza ale wystarczyło sprzęgło wsadzić na miejsce. Pytanie czy mimo że gorąca woda (z spieniacza) leci normalne może być wina pompy że tak woda leci przy płukaniu, czy to jest wina zatkanego tłoka, zaparzacza? pozdrawiam, Z góry dziękuję za odpowiedź

[@milek2020]

Przy odpaleniu, długo się zastanawia, przy ruszaniu zaparzacza tak 5-10 zanim zacznie się płukać, choć może to normalne, nie mam pojęcia, ostatnio przestudiowałem kilkadziesiąt filmików na temat budowy tego ekspreso 😅

[@yt.myworks]

Hi, wszystko wskazuje na to że górny tłok będzie zakamieniony lub jakiś przewód wody. Długie oczekiwanie do momentu płukania oznacza znowu że bojler nie daje rady i potrzebuje długo aż osiągnie temperaturę. Spróbuj najpierw odkamienić poprzez płukanie : zobacz film od min. 7;00 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hXu6mKiJnN6ZasU

[@milek2020]

@@yt.myworks Dziękuje bardzo za odpowiedz, sprawdziłem tłok był cały zasyfiony oraz plastik od śrubki się skruszył, wiec postanowiłem zakupić nowy tylko mam pytanie czy mając model ECAM 22.110. SB a tłok będzie do ECAM 22.110 to będzie robiło jakąś różnice? pozdrawiam :)

[@yt.myworks]

[@milek2020]

Dzisiaj wymieniłem tłok w moim ekspresie (nieco się bałem go uruchomić, haha), teraz kawa leci znacznie szybciej, ale zauważyłem, że pod zaparzaczem (przynajmniej mi się tak wydaje) leci woda do tacy. Podejrzewam, że może to być spowodowane zużytymi uszczelkami w zaparzaczu. Sprawdziłem tłok i uszczelki, ale nie zauważyłem żadnych śladów wody. Poza tym, gdy rozpoczynam proces parzenia kawy, pompa włącza się na 2 sekundy, a następnie coś (chyba) poprawia ustawienie zaparzacza a następnie kontynuuje swoją pracę (choć podejrzewam, że to normalne, ponieważ to mój pierwszy ekspres 😅). Dzięki za wszelkie wskazówki i porady. Jestem wdzięczny za Twoją pomoc!😉 Pozdrawiam.
