How to Clean Clogged & Leaking Milk Tassimo Nozzle!

[@bigvalexander8917]

This is the true power of the Internet. Twitter and all the rest can go away but people helping other people solve every day problems. I've had my unit for 10yr and never knew these parts came out like many others here. I even went to go buy a new machine after mine started leaking everywhere, only to find out the new versions are made much poorer than when these were first released. Now I get to keep old faithful! Thanks so much

[@nadeemafzal8984]

you are a life saver - my tassimo started producing diulte coffee with a stiff cover - 1 year since purchase - i too thought it was all sealed in built till your video -- it feels like fresh and as i purchased on day 1 - massive thank you for the video - massive thumbs up (i used a thick paper clip and opened it up -- )

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad I could help! I shudder to think how many coffee makers are just thrown away!

[@LesD9]

Sir...you are a genius! Like others, I didn't think of trying to 'break down' the central nozzle unit! Being in a soft water area, I don't descale all that often and have been in the habit of just putting the whole thing (the nozzle that is!) in the dishwasher every so often. So you can imagine what the inside was like! Now, here's the thing....what you didn't mention is the need to clean out the 'frother' slot inside the large sleeve! Wondering why our crema was disappearing over the months, I have been searching for clues and have previously come across the need to clean 'the three parts'! But, until now, I haven't found which three parts! We now have our crema back and I can't thank you enough.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Thank you but can you also tell that you my wife LOL

[@JulianneWillis-f8w]

You just saved my life with this video, had milk leaking everywhere?? You solved the problem thank you thank you thank you! Brilliant

[@timforeman2682]

My T20, that we've only had for a month, started leaking water like crazy this morning. I followed your instructions and found a piece of foil from a T-disc blocking the nozzle. Fixed in ten minutes. Thanks for a great vid!

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Thanks for your kind words!

[@ZedTee190]

Thanks for this. Mine was about to go into the bin but I'd just bought a ton of pods for it. Following advice from here, with the use of a cotton bud or several and only a bit of swearing I now have a functioning machine again! The nozzle was totally blocked with coffee grindings and little bits of silver foil from the pods. Thanks again!

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad I could help, I wonder how many do end in bin!

[@jeankristnew7942]

Thank you so much for this! Very clear and gave me the confidence to push and pull on pieces that I never would have guessed would come apart. Like everyone else, I found an amazing quantity of gunk in there (I make lattes so both coffee and milk sludge), very satisfying to chip it off with toothpick and paperclip, and now it's working great. I was about to throw away the machine and about $50 worth of pods, this was a last-ditch effort and I so appreciate the video!!

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

All my career I was frustrated by -experts would impatiently show me how to do something but do it so fast I couldn't follow what they'd done or those paper instructions that leave out a vital step!

[@paulrazzell9386]

Thanks for this. We have had a problem for a week now and blamed the capsule. I have now cleaned the nozzle and have a new machine! Brilliant video

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad it helped , Now I now I regularly give it a quick clean before it gets too clogged.

[@apinat888]

Thanks, this was excellent - have the same model of Tassimo. I had figured out the nozzle is the problem, but I didn't realize you can just take it off. After thousands of coffee pods it was quite clogged in there!

[@ailsasharp4061]

Amazing, thank you! I've struggled for ages with mine. Currently have all bits soaking 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad it helped! When this happened to me I couldn't even work out why/where it was leaking I thought something must be broken, I wonder how many perfectly good coffee machines just get checked way?

[@ailsasharp4061]

@@HowToVideosAndTips I thought the nozzle was clogged but couldn't figure out how to unclog it! 🤷🏼‍♀️ I dread to think how many years worth of gunk was in there... 🙈 It was on the verge of being chucked!

[@markyon8906]

Thank you - I didn't even know you could do this! Mine was totally clogged, but now no longer!

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad I could help! I found I could hardly tell what was dried up coffee and what was actual nozzle

[@mickyarams]

Thanks a million!!! I nearly bought another machine because I could not figure out why the milk kept leaking.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

It was a mystery to me as well.. it just looks like one solid piece. In fact it cleverly snaps together

[@kevinfifield7122]

Brilliant, now the milk is frothing again , didn't know the nozzle came out either .Many Thanks

[@imansfield]

Oh thank God for this video! Didn't realize that nozzle thing came out. Have given it a good clean out and the machine runs like new now! Amazing how much dried coffee was caked in there. Its a wonder it worked at all! Will clean it out more regularly from now on. Tassimo should really mention this in the instruction manual.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad I could help! When I remember I clean the nozzle after my last coffee and leave the nozzle parts in a bowl to soak overnight

[@elainemcguire968]

Thank you I didn’t know these parts came out, all cleaned now so hopefully no more leaking 🙌🏼

[@sarahdickinson9523]

Wow, thanks a lot! what a great video. My Tassimo had so much stuck-on coffee grounds. Like you said, it was clogged, so the milk could not go through the nozzle, so it came out of the top. It would have been nice, though, to see how you cleaned it. I soaked the parts in 2 parts water and 1 part vinegar for at least 30 minutes, and it loosened all the grime and made it easier to clean.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Sarah, I just scraped it clean as I was in a hurry but I'm going to soak all the bits in a vinegar mix (as you suggest overnight). Must get some more descaler as well. & thanks for your kind words.

[@andyb311]

Thanks for taking the time to upload this video. Our unit has just started spitting milk everywhere and have been very frustrated knowing that I can't give it a deep clean. The fact that they pieces come out is a game changer. Was about to buy a new one so really appreciate your video. Cheers! 👍

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Andrew Thanks for your kind words when mine started spilling the milk I didn't even know where it was coming from

[@caramelbiscoff5075]

Thank you so much for this video! You don't realise how helpful these videos are. My machine works fine now... coffee looks and tastes a lot better!

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Caramel I find it useful to watch a relevant KZbin videos before starting any job, even when I know what to do.. You can always pick up a few tips

[@dredskikushinga9938]

Thanks very much for your video... like many others I was about to throw my coffee maker away and buy a new one. By the way, mine is somewhat different.. the nozzle came in only two parts but pulling it apart and cleaning was the solution.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad it was helpful! It just looks so undismantlable until you try

[@rfc1795]

Thank you!!!! I've been running a cleaning cycle over and over, and still, I was getting bits of crud coming out into the cup. Google search on how to clean a Tassimo properly brought me here. I've got the newer type, but the concept is still the same for the most part. Popped the nozzle out, that's where my problem clearly was!! Pipette brush through the nozzle and around the spaces cleared it all up instantly on the next cleaning cycle test.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad it helped! The first time I cleaned mine I couldn't tell what was actual nozzle from solid coffee residue!

[@drejam11]

thank you so much had the same problem did not realise it could be stripped down. I cycled cleaned three times with the yellow disc and still had the same problem but I will try this solution now. Thanks

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

i just had to through the cycle about 8 times before the red light cleared then i did another cycle for good luck!

[@rosiemowatt269]

Thank you so much for this. I was on the verge of throwing my machine away! Ive had it a good few years now and didnt know I could take ip apart to clean. The coffee was so compacted at first I thought I was removing pieces of plastic/rubber...once again many thanks for an easy to follow instruction :-)

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Rosie, that was my experience as well LOL, I had no idea my machine could be dismantled and just like you could hardly tell what was congealed coffee and what was coffee machine.

[@TashaLiciousss]

Your an absolute star. I was going to order a new one, but thought surely there has to be a blockage somewhere and now I know why it was leaking.. It was so blocked. Thank you

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Mine was so blocked I was amazed it had worked at all, now I dismantle it and clean it every few weeks

[@tathmew1]

Very useful, thanks. Mine has just started doing this the last couple of days, after I descaled it funnily enough and only since I bought different drinks, which was confusing. For some time it has been dripping after making drinks so I thought the nozzle could be clogged. Never cleaned this part in 5 years, so this was a great reference 👌👍

[@ianjones4116]

Thanks Pal, you just saved a Tassimo flying across my garden,, and saved me a slap off the wife also the £s for a new one lol. Thanks from Wales 😁👍😎

[@maggieonamission]

thank you for this video, was about to bin mine- now works perfect. was so easy to do- was proper flithy

[@nikeerulz]

Wow thanks for saving my coffe machine.was about to throw it away.cleaned it very well and now works as new. Found inside even aluminium foils from the pods that the machine does a hole in it. Cheers

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad I could help! When I first cleaned mine couldn't even tell what was actually part of the coffee maker and what was dried coffee. Remember to dismantle the nozzle every now and again and leave to soak over night!

[@everythingtechnew7400]

Thanks I’m surprised we’re still alive 😂 I’ll remember this & keep it clean from now. I thought maybe it was self cleaning but obviously not 😬😷😁

[@ashleighsaunders1941]

Thank you this video helped a lot! My friend give me her tassimo & when I tested it had old milk bits in the clear water, now I’ve taken the nozzle apart it’s as good as new!

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Glad it helped! Our son donated his Tassimo but without the box or instructions as well so had no idea it could be dismantled!

[@diecconray6426]

Very good clip I have exactly the same problem and after viewing this video I was able to fix it Thanks

@@HowToVideosAndTips can’t believe how clogged up it is in there, surprised it worked at all, they should really tell people this can be cleaned then it wouldn’t happen, your a star thank you so much

Nice video, thank you so much. We were about to order a new one, but after watching this we are back as good as new. I searched on a whim, so glad I did now.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Delighted to hear this and you that you took the time to say that it worked for you. I try to remember to dismantle my nozzle every now and again & leave it to soak overnight. (I try to avoid coffee after midday so I can soak right after my last coffee of the day)

[@Warthread]

Thank you, bro for ths video. It really helped. The milk stopped leaking and the coffee really tastes better!

[@christinaE1989]

That is why i love youtube. Clean mine with a reusable straw brush! Thanks for the video

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

thanks Christina, Even when you think you already know how to do a thing it's still worth investing a few minutes watching a relevant KZbin video.. Sometimes I even re-watch my own videos!

[@martinmchale8069]

[@Zodliness]

Found one today, didn't have the service disc, returned to original dump location and asked around, found the owner and asked if she had the service disc, amazingly she had it. We went home and tried it out, only to find the machine kept shutting itself down every time I started the descaling sequence. Then I thought Ahah Check KZbin, someone would have posted something about tearing one down. That's when zzapper zzapper popped up with the exact solution. Thanks fro sharing, although I don't think I want to get hooked on the blackmail barcode system that Tassimo has adopted on their proprietary beverage dispensers.

[@HowToVideosAndTips]

Thanks Zurkster, I use KZbin all the time for solutions to my problems and if I find a good solution myself I put up a video

nice man. too bad we got a new one - Vivy II...but that one spills coffee even after a couple of months.

I could not push it out... too hard. I won't be forcing it, or I might break the nozzle part. 😔 Guess I just have to chuck this machine and get another single serve brand. I really hate to part my Tassimo. I love this machine, even if Canada stopped selling new machines for years now.
