Frother doesn't froth
I've got a brand new machine but the frother doesn't seem to put out enough steam to properly froth the milk, and seems to drip water continuously. is this normal. I was hoping enough steam would come out to swirl the milk around the frothing jug.

Does not seem normal! You should get plenty of steam for the frothing. Since the unit is new you should take it back and get a replacement. The unit needs to increase the temperature for steam, route the steam away from the espresso group to the steam unit and the pump needs to activate to create the high pressure. Any failure in this areas will create your condition. It also possible that your steamer is blocked but this is a new machine so this is unlikely but you should make sure that it is not blocked.
