Title: Snow foam lance problem - need your help
Post by: brookesb32 on November 09, 2013, 09:25:35 pm

Hi all

I have been using my lance for nearly a year with no issues unit a couple of months back when the foam started coming  out of the side holes in the black section and isn't as thick (if you take it off it is Coming from the 4 holes in the metal).

I have tried cleaning and descaling the lance in case it was blocked but apart from being very clean the problem still persists

Has anyone had anything similar and been able to rectify it?

Pic below is just with water going through as missed taking a pic when had the foam in the bottle so put water in for the pic
