Hi,
I'm getting water coming out through the group-head when pulling shots.
Do you know what the likely causes are?
I've had a look but I can see anything obvious,
Water leaking out through the grouphead
Re: Water leaking out through the grouphead
Is it leaking around the outside of the portafilter basket? My triple basket bottomless portafilter was doing that. I just had to tighten it a little more. Make sure the shower screen and area around it are clean, and the lip of the basket and portafilter has no coffee grounds on it.
Re: Water leaking out through the grouphead
Yeah, that's whats happening. What did you tighten exactly?
I notice when the portafiliter is fully tightened with some force that is lessens or eliminates the problem.

The rubber gaskets harden over time and need replacing. If you can find the silicone rubber replacement versions they last much longer.

Thanks, replaced the gasket and that seems to have sorted out my problem.
