Thank you so much for your lessons and tips. The world should better with people like you who teach to fix and not destroy things. thx! 🙏

Hello.This worked out well for me! After I used descaling solution which leaked out all over (as you describe), I looked for help & got your youtube to show me what to do. Now my pixie is unclogged and making good coffee again. Thanks for your great help, nicely explained. I truly appreciate your expertise! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Toothbrush worked. Used an old electric toothbrush head on the plate. Used the toothbrush to buzz it too. Worked a treat! Thank you! 👏🏻

Oh my, you are a legend. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. At first I did clean this with just some toilet paper and brushing it with my thumb. To no result. Now I tried with an old toothbrush and it released so much old coffee grinds. Then when I went to go for one cup of just hot water, I also brushed the nossle as it was coming out and it released even more old grinds. Did this 3-4 times. Now the machine doesnt just work again, it also tastes brand new. Thank you.

Thank you so much buddy! We took apart the machine, cleaned everything but we were not aware that we could remove the diffuser plate and clean it as well. We were about to order a new part for the machine (replacing the whole capsule holding part) but after we removed the diffuser and cleaned each hole with a needle, there is not a drop leaking! Thanks again, you saved us £50.00!

If you don't want to disassemble the machine; Use electric toothbrush and baking powder to clean the diffuser plate. Then get an empty Nespresso pod and fill it with baking powder. Fill the reservoir with half water, half spirit vinegar and run 5-10 descale cycles. Clean the diffuser plate again with the electric toothbrush. Run some more cycles with clean water and voila.... No more leaking!! I hadn't cleaned my machine properly in 10 years and the above method fixed it for me :) Now I'm going to regularly descale 😅

So glad to see a close up look at the insides of my machine (I have the same as shown in this video). The first few months of using my new Nespresso machine, I knew nothing about rinsing or cleaning, and consequently the coffee oils and layers of dried espresso built up and clogged everything. After a major deep cleaning with brushes and rinses and cleaning capsules, seeing flakes and chunks of dried espresso coming out of the brewing chamber, I figured out that going forward, simply running a few clean water rinses through after every morning espresso - *until the water runs clear* - keeps the layers of espresso inside from drying and building up in the first place. For a diffuser plate to get so clogged as to require a wire poking through the diffuser holes to manually clear them - is a sign of ages of use with no rinsing or cleaning whatsoever. Nespresso instructions only tell you how to brew or descale - they never mention a thing about simply rinsing after each brew - so it's no wonder nobody suspects you need to do more to keep it clean and everyone ends up with clogged, coated breaking down machines.

Hello! Have that exact problem on my machine!Was going to replace that part but now will follow your advice instead 👍 Subscribed!! Thanks a lot 😉

You totally fixed my machine. Thank you. I also used a disposable new mascara wand. ( They come in packs from the drugstore) I put it up the spout a thousand times like a pipe cleaner. Oh my. So much also came out. Coffee chunks. You are my hero. Thank you again from BNE Australia

I just used the toothbrush, pushed the button as if I was going to make coffe but with no capsule and then blowed the nozzle with an air compressor. 5min job and it was perfect. Thank you!

Thanks Adrian! Toothbrush worked. Just to be sure and because I remembered my Quickmill manual I repeated the proces with a steel wool pan sponge and the handle of a dishwashing brush. Works like a charm. My alternative method would have been using a bike pump to blow through the nozzle and hence cleaning the diffuser plate ;-)

Thanks for this awesome video. Mine has a small stream behind the nozzle. It fixed the problem with a brush the first time. After a few years, brush won't fixed it. Like another user commented, I used an electric duster/blower to blow alternately through the nozzle and the diffuser. It is fixed!

Fixed my machine in about 25 seconds after I saw this with the toothbrush first - now as good as new - awesome!

truly appreciate it. i had a bit of coffee in the cup and lots of water around the machine :) think it could be the same problem of clogged outlets. Nespresso was willing to pick and repair for S$120/- with 6 months guarantee. :/ n was pushing me for an upgrade. will try your way 1st with toothbrush.. suggesstion: for those who have the time..maybe they could sock that diffuser disc in some vinegar solution overnight and it shd be cleared. just rinse properly after that :) take care stay safe all.

Wow. That trick really works. The first time, I only cleaned it with a tooth brush which helped a little. (It went from a steam to a drip). But after removing the piece with the holes and cleaning each hole with a sturdy push-pin, the leak is gone. Thanks!

Thank you! I was about to buy a new machine and your video enabled me to fix it! Thank you!!

Omg SUBBED you have noo idea how grateful I am.. thank you sooo much!!! I just fixed my 18 year-old Nespresso. This lady has been with me since I was single, so it was hard thinking it was her end. Must admit I haven't descaled in two years, plus I've been using non Nespresso capsules. Firstly, I got a toothbrush and cleaned the plate, didn't work. It was too complicated to disassemble a 1st gen Nespresso, so I got a toothbrush, then a toothpick and carefully cleaned the spout. I was scared that I was poking the insides wrongly, but it worked!!! The toothpick unclogged whatever was blocking the flow. I was so ready to use my Karcher steam, but I didn't need to. Cleaning the spout did the trick! I'll probably clean it more with a thin needle and perhaps a steam cleaner tomorrow. Yay, now we have coffee tomorrow morning. Bless you!!!

The toothbrush method was enough for me to fix it, thank you!

Fabulous! Just fabulous!! Thank you!!

This looks like what’s happening to my machine. Thank you!

Hi Adrian, Thanks for your video's. I have a C-100 model Nespresso and the brew mechanism is just like you are holding in this video, I've cleaned the diffuser plate just as you discussed. However, I still have a leak from this brew chamber. Is there an "o-ring" in the C-100 brew mechanism? I removed the "silver cylinder" that holds the pods to try and see if there is in o ring behind this cylinder.....but I didn't see one? Also, is the silver cylinder that holds the pod suppose to be easy to be removed? maybe this should be "glued in place"? Thanks for any advice. Pete

Hope this will work on my old D111 so I do not need to throw it away, thank you for the tip.

Had the same waterproblem, cleaned the disk in vinegar using a brush (9 of the 25 small holes were blocked and others might have been partly blocked) After cleaning the disk the leaking was history. Problem nr 1 for most people wil be opening the device with its exotic screws.

Grrr.. I hate when things break unexpectedly. Mine got clogged after following the descaling tutorial, it was working well before that so I regret even starting that process. Now I have to disassemble lol 😅Thanks for the advise!

Hello ....you need to change the orign also.

I suspect this decreases the pressure inside the machine. Therefore, if you make wholes larger than default - because the metal inside is so squishy - you decrease the pressure, say from 19 bars to 14 bars, the coffee will flow easily and machine would not leake. But in that case you sacrifice high-pressure coffee to some extent. If the mesh inside is just cloged with coffee, rust, etc. then ok, perhaps you won't decreese the pressure. But enlargening the wholes with pins, that is not recommended.
