It's leaking where it attaches at the face plate. Small drips of water and some steam. I'll try tightening the attachment nut. Not sure if anyone else has had this issue.

For some time, I felt there might be a leak in my steam boiler. My machine used a lot of water, I needed to refill the tank every day.

Now, there is no steam at all. Dead. I guess the board shut down the steam boiler. No steam, but when I push the tea button, I have cold...

Hi everyone- my ECM Synchronika needs some TLC after 5 years, so I thought I'd check here for suggestions so I can be more efficient once I open her up.

About 1.5 years ago I installed the high pressure steam upgrade. In general, I am very lax on maintenance and cleaning and...

I got a new vacuum breaker for my GS3 from a very reputable and knowledgeable espresso dealer. Now, the new breaker (on the top) is actually bigger than the old one (at the bottom).

It's for an Iberital l'Anna one group. Also I've got a ton of lime scale. Any advice on cleaning it out? I might have to see if I can open up the other side of the boiler so I can get in there.

I'm trying to figure out which side is the top on the new heating element. The blue...

Hi everyone

The group output of my trusty Nuova Simonelli Oscar II has started to falter - it will initially pump out water, then it will start getting quite steamy until there is only steam coming out, this will happen for a few seconds and then the water flow will start again...

Hi Everyone, I have a Breville Barista Express BE870 that is only a few years old, and there appears to be a blockage in the group head as only minimal or intermittent water comes through - the steam wand and hot water work fine however. It is however using a lot of water so...
