- I got this Krups FNC1 at a flea market for 100 Kr/£10/$15, without knowing if it worked or not. It needed a good cleaning and descaling and now it works as if it was new! This entry-level model is about 12 years old, but it gets the job done for now. All I need to do is learn more about coffee... :-) In this video I use Lavazza ground coffee and Thiese Jersey milk. Thanks for watching :-)

My mother just gave me one. Must be 20yrs old. Works!
Cool! I hope you will have some nice coffee and enjoy it as much as I did :-) Thank you for commenting!
What size of Portfilter and timper?
😍😍😍😍😍
I really recommend delonghis espresso machine.
Hello . I have exactly the same machine when it is on "O" all water comes out from front and fills all the tray . Any thoughts ? Thank you
That is a problem with one pressure valve stuck. That coffee machine need periodically descale cycle. Buy good descaler coffee machine solution and run few descale cycles and maybe will help and sort that issue. You could try with vinegar 9 percentage concentration in dilution at 50/50 or 70/30 percentage for descaling, or you can use 500ml of undiluted 5 percentage vinegar from wilko. Run one or two cycles, leavit over night and after 12-15 hours, run cycles until finish all vinegar remain in that tank. For cleaning, run ajother 300ml with distilled water until any vinegar taste in water dissapear. You could add and disolve in first 150 ml of distilled water a quarter teaspoon with sodium bicarbonate (baking soda).and another 200 ml run only clear distilled water. After each cycle of cleaning you will need to empty that tray.
HEY GOOGLE ! what's the name of this tune ?
I can't get mine to pump water. It hasn't been used for quite a while, and I was wondering what a fix could be
I have the same! Did you manage to find out why? Thanks!
@@kadinhoneyfield I found the fix. Before you heat up the water, pump it through both the steamer and the main insert where the portafilter goes, then switch it over to the super hot mode. Be careful as the O-ring for the portafilter can melt if you do multiple poor due to the machine getting so hot.
This machine is okay. Mine is old and it doesn't have enough pump pressure to create a crema. I just got a new machine off Amazon today because I want to improve my espresso game so we will see where it goes. Personally, I think there are better options than the FNC1, but it'll do if you just want an espresso.
Advice I can give you regarding the machine is that the grind matters a lot. The more ground the beans the more acidic it may taste, so finding a good balance is key to not destroying your mouth with acid and getting a good, bold flavor, but even then I can't really get a good extraction with a crema and good flavor.
Hey, does any one know the filter basket size for this machine? It should be a measurement in millimeter usually, thanks!
54mm
it seems delicious coffee! where to find one ? thank you.
It sure is! :-) The model is discontinued, but you might find one at a garage sale :-)

There is a krups machine called Krups pump espresso XP3208 espresso machine. I have that and is perfect
I got the xp 4000 at a Thrifty store..for a whopping 13.99.
what a buy.
Please, the model of this machine is Krups.....thank you very much
Not an xp 4000..got to be 4000 something.
Hi! I just got that exact model. By any chance, do you have the user's manual that you could share?
Hi Elena. I think you might have found the manual by now, but just in case you haven't, here's a link to click to download it: e.manualretriever.com/lect.php?ID=3705971&lg=E&h=d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e
Oops! Sorry Elena, I gave you a link for a different Krups. This is the right one: manuall.co.uk/krups-fnc1-espresso-machine/
Bonjour peut-on utiliser avec des dosette ?
Bonjour Monique! My french is not good, pardon, so this answer is in english. I think you can use pods (dosette) but I haven't tried that myself. Thank you for watching the video!
Do you know how to clean the inside of this machine as the water won't run through mine :(
Hi Zoe. I use citric acid -about 1/10 to 9/10 water. Pour the mixture into the tank, turn on the machine and "pretend" to make a cup of coffee. When the first cup is filled, I turn the machine off and wait for about an hour so that the mixture can work inside the machine. Repeat the process. Don't forget to clean not only the portafilter, but also the filter that sits above it. It can easily be removed with a screwdriver. PLEASE: Make sure to make several cups of "fake coffee" using ONLY water afterwards in order to rinse the machine properly! Please let me know if it works for you :-)
Where to buy citric acids
@@mehransamsami8967 in the supermarket in with baking ingredients
Hola es normal que al calentar la leche haga ese ruido de cloc, cloc
SI
We want to buy a holder for aliexpress. Can you tell me the size?
Hi Daulet. I'm sorry I don't know what you mean by "holder" ?
Alguien puede decirme si es normal que al calentar la leche se escuche plon plon,
SI
Is it good l
Well, I've used it for some time now, and it works fine :-) It's a very basic model and it has its flaws, but I'm quite happy with it :-)
Thomas Rasmussen heh, I just got one off an old friend, wasn't too sure how to use the steam wand since I'm only used to cafe level machines. Thanks for the video!
YW :-) I'm sure you'll like the machine. Just make sure the amber (bottom) light is off before you start frothing milk -it takes a little while, but otherwise steam teperature might not be sufficient :-) Have fun :-)
This video made me cringe. Don't even know where to begin telling you how to do it properly.
y2keable Useless comment. Instead of criticizing him, why don't you just explain the steps on how it could be improved?
Nice, I just inherited exactly the same machine from my grandparents, care to explain how to use it "properly"? I use it the same way as OP and it makes pretty good coffee IMO
Nothing wrong at all w said procedure considering the machine. Just got one from me mum and it works well. Again for what it is.
