After brewing stops, the machine continues to drip coffee or water from the spout for an extended period.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Worn check valve, Scale in outlet path, Capsule holder not venting properly, High internal pressure due to restriction

Safety: Use caution when removing the capsule holder; hot liquid may still be present.

Wait before removing capsule: Allow 30–60 seconds after brewing before opening the handle to let pressure drop.
Clean capsule holder: Rinse and soak the holder to clear any coffee oils and residues.
Descale: Perform a descaling cycle to improve internal flow and reduce residual pressure.

Persistent long dripping may indicate a worn internal check valve, which requires disassembly and replacement.
