Siemens Surpresso TK56001 coffee spout distributor replacement

Inleiding

If the coffee only sprays weakly out of the two outlets, or only pours out of one of the two outlets, then they are probably clogged with coffee fat. It's difficult to properly clean the component as the aroma of the coffee will always suffer. The replacement part costs less than 4 euros, the replacement is pretty easy and will be described here. Unfortunately, in contrast to the Surpresso Compact, the housing has to be opened.

Note: the opening of the device is shown on a Surpresso Compact, but it is basically the same. Pay attention to any cables to the sensors.

These instructions may also help with other Siemens/Bosch models and with coffee makers from Nivona, Melitta, and Miele—they have a very similar design.
