Clive Coffee Videos are great. Thanks for them.

My gaskets didn't seem to last as long as I expected and will leak after a short period use. I found that my portafilter basket was not polished smooth around the sealing area. I took a knife sharpening stone with a coarse and very fine polishing side and polished up the portafilter to create a larger and completely smooth sealing area. Viola! No more leaks using the old gasket.

Fascinating! This is definitely something I want to further research. Do you mind letting me know what gasket, portafilter, and basket you were using, as well as approximately how long you'd been using the gasket? -Charles

Just watched a video featuring La Spaziales "major technician" who designed this model. He just explained how the double screen prevents the need for a backflush. And only recommended rinsing the screen with hot water every three days (depending on use). Any reason you show using detergent and backflush?

I would like to know Clive Coffee's response to this as well.

The back flushing is needed on 3 way solenoid valves,as the water with coffee goes back in through the group head. Unless the grouphead design is different, you cannot avoid a backflush cleaning.

Is descaling needed? How often?

@530steve Жыл бұрын

I'd like to know more about de scaling. Is that necessary and how do I do that?

@clivecoffee Жыл бұрын

Hey there! We actually don't recommend descaling nor have any resources on it. We recommend a professional technician perform it if you need to descale. Otherwise, we recommend using filtered and soft water immediately-the easiest preventative maintenance you can do for your machine. clivecoffee.com/blogs/learn/the-importance-of-water-and-your-espresso-machine
