filter on the group head

Troubleshooting
Solution
The tip of the steam wand is
clogged; unclog it with needle.
This problem is caused by the
way the tip is put into the milk.
Possible causes:
1 – The group head gasket is
worn or encrusted.
2 – The portafilter is incorrectly
inserted in the group.
The problem can be caused by
an excessive dose of coffee in
the portafilter.
Once inserted on the group,
the handle of the portafilter has
shifted to the right. The group
head gasket is worn.
The coffee is dispensed drop by
drop, the output time is too long
and the quality of it is not good,
the cream is dark.
Possible causes:
1 - The coffee is ground too
finely.
2 - The coffee has been pressed
too firmly in the portafilter.
3 - The dose in the portafilter is
excessive.
4 - The group shower head is
clogged.
5 - The portafilter filter basket is
clogged.
6 - The pressure supplied by the
pump is low (< 9 bar – 0.9
MPa) or does not work.
