Steam nozzle provides frothy milk for cappuccinos and lattes. New compact Thermoblock unit for perfect temperature control. 8 bar pump for optimal espresso beverage results. 27 oz. removable water tank. Removable drip tray for easy clean up.
There is a clear echo here, so to simply quote the experience of another reviewer, “after two months the steamer ceased to function properly and steam came out of the espresso head instead.”
Rather than paying to ship the unit to Krups myself—clearly, the company cannot afford to pay shipping on the thousands of these cheaply made units—I hauled the Krups FNP112-42 down to my workshop and found that the hose to the steamer had detached.
Well, fixing that problem did not render the FNP112-42 usable, for now it simply exhaled steam in great plumes like a bull in a Bugs Bunny cartoon. Cleaning the unit per the directions from Krups did nothing whatsoever. Nor did shaking it robustly or inserting various instruments into the nonworking nozzles serve any purpose, but at least I felt a bit better.
