Tubes like this split, kink or go missing, and without one the machine can't pull milk through. De'Longhi uses tubes of different lengths and end fittings, so check this number against your model's parts list or the tube you're replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNo milk coming through the frother\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you make a milk drink, steam passing through the frother creates suction that pulls milk up the intake tube, where it's heated and frothed. Any air leak or blockage in the tube breaks that suction. Signs include milk that won't draw up, spurting or sputtering froth, thin or no foam, or milk dripping back into the jug. Dried milk inside the tube is a frequent cause, so rinse it after every use. A split end or a tube that no longer grips its fitting needs replacing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine De'Longhi part 53132C8204\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMilk intake tube\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor De'Longhi coffee machines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the milk tube\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTurn the machine off and let the frother cool. Pull the old tube off its connector and check the connector for dried milk, cleaning it with warm water. Push the new tube firmly onto the fitting so it can't slip off, and make sure the free end reaches the bottom of the milk container. Rinse it after each use to keep milk residue from building up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I cut a longer tube to fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's best to use the tube made for your machine. The diameter and end fittings need to match to hold suction.
