Nespresso lists irregular blinking as a fault the owner cannot fix.

What Nespresso says to do
- Send the appliance for repair or call the Nespresso Club.
If that does not fix it: Call the Nespresso Club (the manual’s wording).
From Essenza Mini — My Machine (user manual): Machine operation, Energy saving mode, Reset to factory settings, Descaling, Emptying the system and Troubleshooting. This is the Essenza Mini’s pattern; another Nespresso machine may use the same light for something else — check the manual for your model.

Fault or blockage on other machines
The same need shows up as a different light on each machine — which is why a light cannot be read without the machine.
