No water comes out of one spout. I have already tried to unclog it with a skewer but it doesn't help. How do I solve this?

I have regularly run the cleaning programs, but it grinds the beans and the coffee falls into the drawer below. No water is coming out. What is the problem? Sincerely, Birgit Reuter

Dear Madam/Sir, The coffee outlet of our Caffeo Solo is blocked. When trying to clean it with a skewer, it broke inside. How can I disassemble the outlet to fix this? Thank you in advance, Wim Dirkse

I wanted to rinse the brewing unit before we went on holiday for a week. I had recently run the cleaning program, so I was just going to open the unit without any cleaning program. The problem is that the handle got stuck and I can't get the unit out. I also can't brew coffee. I have tried turning it off and on again repeatedly and pressing the off button and cleaning button simultaneously. I remember there was some gadget inside that needed to circulate one notch further, but nothing is happening. The cleaning program button just blinks and nothing else happens. How can I get the handle back down to the brewing unit or get it to brew again?

I can’t re insert the pod as the spindle from the motor is out of alignment as it was stopped halfway through a clean program.

I can’t get the brewing unit out for cleaning. It feels like something is not shifting on the inside when I rotate the arm to remove the brewing unit. Any ideas please?
