My Minima has been happily making great coffee for a few years now, thanks to help from this forum. This morning I decided to give its regular flush clean.
I put in the blind filter and with 3g of cleaner in it I turned it on for 10 seconds, then let it rest for 20 seconds and turned it on again planning for 10 seconds. However, it blew the house electricity fuse after 3 seconds and I had to reset. Reset done I tried again with the same result.
So, I gave up, thinking it might be related to the perhaps higher pressure of the blind filter. I took out the blind filter and thought I’d run it a few times to clear the cleaning agent from the porta-filter. Once again it blew the fuse in the house fusebox. It now blows as soon as I try to pull any shot, virtually instantly.
Might anyone have any ideas what’s causing the problem and how to fix it. At the moment, apart from the worry of not having a working machine, I’m concerned about a Sunday morning with no coffee!!!.
