When the gauge shows low pressure or the coffee drips instead of running, there are only a few common causes. Start with the simple ones.
What to check first
- Is there water at the tap and in the tank, and is the supply open?
- Is the basket blocked or the grind too fine?
- Are the group gaskets worn?
- Can you hear the pump working?
Common causes
- Blocked baskets or a grind that is too fine.
- Scale in the pipes and solenoid valves.
- Worn pump or pressure regulator.
- Worn gaskets and leaks at the group.
When to book a service
If pressure does not return after the simple checks, a technician needs to inspect it. Our coffee machine service includes descaling, group checks and replacement of worn parts.
