Why Is Your Nespresso Vertuo Next Blinking Orange?
The Nespresso Vertuo Next is a coffee machine that is part of the Nespresso range. This coffee machine is designed for use with Nespresso coffee capsules. The Vertuo Next is a newer model of the Vertuo coffee machine, and it has many improved features. One feature of the Vertuo Next is that it has a built-in water tank. This means that you do not need to attach a water supply to the coffee machine. The Vertuo Next also has a larger water tank than the previous model.
The Nespresso Vertuo Next also has a Milk Frother. This means that you can make milk-based coffee drinks, such as lattes and cappuccinos. The Vertuo Next also has a higher maximum coffee cup size than the previous model. The Vertuo Next can brew coffee in four different cup sizes. These are: espresso, double espresso, gran lungo, and mug.
The Vertuo Next has a touch screen display. This display shows you information about the coffee machine, such as the water level and the capsule size that you have selected. The Vertuo Next also has a built-in automatic shut-off feature. This means that the coffee machine will turn itself off after a period of inactivity.
What Causes the Orange Light of Death?
There are two main reasons why the OLOD occurs:
1. The machine is not getting enough water.
2. The machine is not heating up properly.
If your machine is not getting enough water, the OLOD will occur because the pump is not able to create enough pressure to push the water through the coffee grounds. The solution to this problem is simple – just add more water to the water tank.
If the OLOD is occurring because the machine is not heating up properly, it is likely because the heating element is not working correctly. This is a more serious problem that will require you to contact Nespresso customer service for assistance.
How to Fix the Orange Light of Death?
If the OLOD is caused by the machine not getting enough water, the fix is simple – just add more water to the water tank. If the OLOD is caused by the machine not heating up properly, the fix is a bit more complicated. Here are the steps you’ll need to take to fix the heating element:
1. Unplug the machine from the power outlet.
2. Remove the water tank and empty it completely.
3. Remove the drip tray and coffee grounds container.
4. Locate the two screws that hold the top cover in place. Remove these screws.
5. Lift the top cover off of the machine.
6. Locate the heating element and disconnect the two wires that are attached to it.
7. Use a multimeter to test the heating element for continuity. If the multimeter does not register continuity, the heating element is faulty and will need to be replaced.
8. If the heating element is faulty, contact Nespresso customer service to order a replacement.
9. Once you have received the replacement heating element, follow the above steps in reverse to install it.
10. Plug the machine in and turn it on. The OLOD should now be gone.
