Step 3

              Vacuum out the hardened milk in the carafe.               
  • Take off the rubber ring so it wont get sucked into the vacuum. Put the running vacuum up to the small so its sealed. Pour water into the head and suck it through the passage. Tada! No blocked carafes anymore.

Step 4

              Keep out bugs!               
  • Bugs invaded my machine because the cup warmer gave them a nice home. Unplug it nightly. To kill them use white vinegar so you wont poison yourself. (Those are only a few of the bugs in my machine last week)
