Have you ever looked forward to unpacking your Nespresso coffee machine, and then having your first cup of coffee for the day from it, only to find its not pumping water?

Well that was my experience this week.

Granted, my Nespresso was packed up over a year ago, and then we relocated and in the apartment we’re living in, I haven’t taken it out for over a year that we’ve been living here, until this past week.

My Nespresso Inissia

Today, at just past 6pm, it finally worked!

I cannot express just how happy I am with finally getting it to work.

Also…. a huge sigh of relief was expressed, because some of these machines, though beautiful, cost quite a bit, and though I love my Inissia, replacing it right now was just not an option.

The reason for it not working, was due to it having an airlock in the pump.

As such, the air causes a block and doesn’t allow the water to get pumped through.

Thanks to YouTube, a combination of videos seems to have done the trick.

The following are links to the videos that have helped me:

As I sit down to enjoy my coffee, I can finally admit that the stress, panic and worry about the machine not working I experienced has left me, and I look forward to using my Inissia quite a lot more in future.

I’d love to know if you’ve ever experienced an airlock in your Nespresso and how you solved it, so do comment below and share your experience.

Also, what’s your favorite coffee capsule brands or flavors? I’d love to try out some new ones.

وعليكم السلام ورحمة الله وبركاته
