Have you contacted Astra? According to Greg Scace's report a few years back, Richard Hourizadeh at Astra is quite helpful:

If you are interested in the Astra I would call Richard directly and talk to him. Prices listed on Astra's website are for reference only. It's worth speaking with Richard about your needs.

That part broke on mine when I had a Gourmet. It wasn't cheap. BTW, on the side of the machine there is probably a small black plastic circle that covers a small hole. If you take that part off, you will notice that the hole corresponds to the gray button on the piece that broke--just use a pen or something else that will fit in the hole, and you can easily lift the tank out without taking the shell off. Actually, I would recommend doing this whenever you are going to take the shell off, otherwise, you might break that fitting--is that how it broke??
