Aeroccino does not heat
I have an Aeroccino, which does not heat the milk. It stops after a while, then the button blinks, but milk is still cold, and there is no froth...What is the problem?

Sounds like the heating element has burnt out in the Aeroccino (its just not heating rather than actually chilling) and if you open up the Aeroccino you should be able to see where the heating element is burnt out by the bubbles / gap in the circuit board and you may be able to patch the break to make it heat again. Hope this helps
Seems like a.common problem with this product. Another thread exists on it; google aeroccino + freezer. What i found is, just heating the milk yp another way; e.g., the microwave for 1 minute, then, ... use the COLD froth setting by holding button for about 2 or 3 seconds. You'll get a good froth ... because the cold setting goes by time and doesnt use the defective temperature detection.
Try descaling, if the element is covered with scale it wont produce enough heat and pressure.
The machine is Krups, and therefore should be covered with one year warranty. Call the number listed on the user manual, or find contact from websites below:

The descaling doesnt work at all. Problem is the device is no longer detecting a temperature change. Thing is, almost everybody has lots of ways to heat milk. (Granted its pretty easy to frith it too)
