Inspection:

  • Remove the top cover to access the brew head manifold and hoses.
  • Check that the hose from the boiler/pump is securely attached to the brew head and not split.
  • Inspect the brew head for cracks or damage; replace if necessary.
  • Ensure any bypass or return hoses are correctly routed per the service diagram.
