I am wondering if this could also be the cause of the issue that I'm having with my machine? The coffee is extracting too fast, even grinding At the finest setting the pressure needle wont risee above 1/4 of the gauge. I would appreciate your input thank u

Nice!! Thanks.

I just cleaned water filter and start working, repair store sold me pump and wasnt working ,The test for the pump is not accurate, in my case was flow little bit , but was the water filter or you call inner filter, thanks for the video

My water is going into the big cylinder fine (steam and hot water via wand is okay) but not a single drip of water comes out where the coffee is meant to go. Suggestions?

What is the bottom part on the thermo coil? With the two yellow wires? is that a 2nd thermostat? do you know the parts no? mine broke off...

Had exact same issue. Just put that piece in Dezcal solution and put back together and works perfect now!

how can I order o-ring for this machine?

Hi Chris, thanks for all your material about Breville Espresso Machines! It is really great!! I have Breville BES860XL Barista Express Espresso Machine with Grinder and once a plug the machine and I turn it on I got a tripping breaker. Any suggestion? Thanks!

BES870XL Incredible! This is the best video I found because this "fellow" was exactly the thing that needed a cleanup. Thank you much!

This is my second Keurig Coffee Brewer. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxBrV-RbF5Nk0Rlt9i15aao-YMzqzTG8Vf The first one lasted 6 years. It worked beautifully until the day it didn't. It was hard to go back to the drip coffee for a couple of days while I waited on my Keurig to get here. There is a huge difference in the taste. Keurig makes a really good cup of coffee. This new one is a little different from my old one. I find putting the water filter in was easier than on the old one. Attaching the water reservoir was also a little different but once I figured it out, it too was easier. This new one has the auto off feature but is not programmable like the old one. Only three cup sizes instead of four. The odd thing for me was how much lighter in weight this one is compared to my old one. More plastic and much less metal in the construction of this one. The price is so much less than the original Keurig that I bought and the coffee tastes the same so all in all I am satisfied.

Hello, many thanks for your very informative video. I have the low pressure problem in my Sage Barista Express. The pressure briefly goes up to the bottom end of the "espresso range" but then immediately drops down into the 'pre infusion' range until the water stops. It makes a full double espresso. It does the same thing on a single espresso. I have tried replacing the solenoid valve block and also cleaned out the little in line filer as you showed in your video but the problem is still happening. What would you suggest I try next? Many thanks!

Where to buy solenoid block assemblies? Genuine Breville?

Hi Chris, thanks for the video. Very useful, I successfully diagnose the problem and ordered the 2/3 way solenoid and solved the no water from head group issue. However, the steam and hot water came out from the group head as well. I tried to pull out the live cable if the solenoid and the steam came out from the wand. Not sure if it’s another issue instead of the new solenoid? Not sure if it’s controller issue but the original solenoid doesn’t works this way as the new one.( no water from group head with the original solenoid) That’s very appreciated if you can help me out. Thanks

Thank you so much for this. I also replaced the pump then when it didn’t fix it found your video and exact same issue. This inline filter was almost completely blocked. Tested and all good now.

Hi, didn’t get the start of the video so I don’t know what the coffee machine symptoms were to begin with.

Bless your heart, your video has solved our problem! We were having trouble with our BES870XL - with pressure at the group head, resulting in incomplete shots and poor crema, and the hot water spout was steaming, spurting and causing a real mess. I replaced a lot of parts - pump, safety valve, solenoid - and we were still no better off. After watching your video I took the machine apart again (I'm an expert now) and found and removed this filter. I put it in a mason jar with 100% Simple Green and immersed that in an ultrasonic cleaner for half an hour at 40ºC. Afterwards it was rinse, blow out with compressed air, repeat - about 5 times - and reinstall. Having made the other repairs I though this one was worth trying and I was hoping for the best but not expecting much. Lo and behold, everything is as new. Thank you so much!

Awesome

Thankyou Chris!!! You just saved me about $800 for a new espresso machine mate! Merry Christmas!

Great info! Your video really helped me identify and fix the inline water filter issue. Was able to take it off and back flush it (used a water pic)…especially since Breville doesn’t seem to make replacement parts (from my search).

Yup, I blew the filter (which is discontinued) out with air, and it works like new!

Hi . thank you for your video. My coffee maker is a Breville model BES870XL/B unfortunately the pressure does not rise. The gauge is working. The pump worked by taking out an output pipe from it and turning it on, and it had a good output pressure. All the pipes are clean, and I cleaned them twice with special tablets. The steam works and there is no problem. I still could not find the problem. If I find it, I have the possibility to repair it. I have two guesses, one is the external stream ring and casket and the other is the solenoid valve. In the first case, the device has no leaks at all, neither internal nor external pipes. Thank you for your advice in advance

Mine had gunk in it - but for people watching this video, don't CUT your filter - Whack it in an ultrasonic cleaner to dislodge it... Then run it under a tap / high pressure stream. then back to the ultrasonic, but held vertically so the gunk just vibrates out!

Hiya, when you had this issue, did you only experience low/no pressure from the group head? Were the steam wand / hot water dispenser working? Reason I ask is Ive got an 870XL right now with ZERO water coming out of the group head, but the steam wand works, as does the hot water dispenser (and it is also hot).

Great video, My old breville BES870 will not get up to a decent pressue, it seem to max out just in the espresso range after the infusion , I have tightened the OPV (right in) but it doesnt make any difference to the pressure . even with the blind basket shot. Do you think the pump may be weak or the guage is not reading correctly? many thanks

appalling instruction video..

I have another unit - Barista Express-BES870XL- the water coming out of the wand just stopped. I don’t hear the motor any more that controlled the water distribution from the wand. The motor is working that sends the water through the coffee grounds. Can you tell me what is wrong with my unit? Where can I get it repaired? Where can I get the parts? Texas

I have a Duo-Temp Unit. I have around 1.5 cups of water coming out of the unit that goes through the coffee grounds. Normally it’s supposed to be around 1.5 oz (shot glass). Why is there so much water coming out? Any suggestions? Where can I order the replacement part? Thanks again. Texas

Thought I would ask the advice of others who have gone through this first before going into disassembly diagnosis of my 870 XL. The key info being my pressure and water pouring the shot is great but steam wand and hot water just dribbles out. Any ideas I should try first?

Thank you for this! We were getting very little pressure, a teeny bit of steam, a drip of hot water. Obviously we were not enjoying a nice hot espresso for the last few days. Came across your video, and went through the trouble of soaking the solenoid valves in vinegar overnight, didn’t do the trick. So clear the valves were not the problem. Then I took out the online filter - BINGO! Machine works again! You are a lifesaver! Can I send you a bag of beans?

Thank you for your very good video showing the problem with the BES860. My daughter asked me if I would look at her unit which would not indicate pressure or give a coffee. Like you I suspected either the pump or solenoid. However as these are reasonably expensive and may not give a solution I eventually found your video. 10 minutes later the problem was solved. I actually reverse flushed the filter and now the unit is working well. Up until this stage I had dismantled the unit 5 times with no success. Yes I am retired. Tony

Worked out perfect!! Thank you for making this video. Used a little drill and the stuff came right out while I rotated it slowly!! Thanks again!

Hi. Is the Pre-Tank Filter Assy has a direction?

I have the same model that has been buzzing on and off the past year and recently it got worse and the pressure hasnt been good sometimes. I'd love to make a coffee again without the awful buzzing so I attempted to clean the solenoids. Initially, to my surprise, they looked quite clean, but once I opened the same one as in this video, I also found the spring was also full of coffee grind. I thought "Great", so I cleaned it and put it all back together. Unfortunately it's still buzzing horribly and now water seems to be leaking from the solenoid that had the dirty spring (looks to be coming from the top of the solenoid through the thread). I'm sure I put I tightened it all up well, so I am wondering if either I have damaged it when untightening/tightening it with wrench pliers (wouldnt think that would cause a leak), or if the grove down the side of the plunger should not have been re-inserted along the water line. Any ideas? I assume yours worked well again after doing this? Also the fact that its still buzzing loudly makes me wonder if its either something else thats degraded or if the solenoid coils are no good and need replacing..

Replaced valve and pump then stumbled on your video. I was so close to quitting and buying another breville but thankfully ur video saved me a lot of money.

Thanks!

Loved your video, but most of all your honesty, before you found that blocked valve you changed that solonoide, you won't get many people telling you that your a 100% man, people need more honest men like you fixing machines love it all kind regards colin from croydon surrey England 👍 👍 ❤

That part looks more like a non return valve to me.

Hey friend, thanks for this!! I´m from Brazil, your tip saved my life. 🥰🥰

thanks Chris, this video saved my coffee machine as well. Tips for troubleshooting: (got it from home-barista forum) Do a run with just the rubber cleaning inlet to see if you get any pressure (I got almost 0) Let water run without gasket under to see how the water flow is (compare to video here when ppl do an empty run before making a coffee) See if the plain hot water flow is slow as well (compare to friend machine or video on YT) Cleaned my filter out with toothpick and banging it on the kitchen counter.

Thanks for these videos, excellent explained! Mine is an Infuser 840XL, and I have very low pressure, the water is coming out from the head but after 10-15 seconds and low debit. Also, when I turn on the machine, I have a humming (muffled, not sure how to explain it) sound (before it was louder). I did a pressure test with the cleaning disk wrapped in plastic foil, and I see the gauge moving for a few seconds. I removed the inline filter and clean it, and water is flowing without any problems. Also, I found a spring in the hose between the water tank and the inline filter, is it normal? If the pump is broken, can I still get water through the head?

Winner winner.. Espresso will be served after dinner! - THANK YOU!

Working on this now.. Just found the two screws that I wasnt aware of to open.. ua-cam.com/video/96IuKiuIB5A/v-deo.html

Super helpful, thank you @Chris Melin. I have the BES920xl (the dual boiler), and this video and the comment thread even moreso helped me troubleshoot the problem. I had done all sorts of work (symptom is very low flow from group head, but regular flow from hot water and steam wand, descale indicator always was on). Your comments led me to pull apart the solenoid, and sure enough there was a piece of a degraded o ring wedged in the outlet aperture of the valve ... and it all works great now!

Thank you for this video. I wasn't getting any pressure until about 30 seconds of pouring the shot. I knew that the pump was working because of that pressure. My water spout also was coming out but very little and the water was splattering everywhere. I took off the tank and the back panel of the machine and saw the inline filter clogged (the one referred in this video). I couldn't find any replacement part and so I decided to clean it. I used an air can that has a straw (the type used to air out dust in electronics) and ran water through it until the water flow was good. The ties are important, use new ties. I couldn't get all the muck completely out, only about 80% of it. That is the cheapest solution. It worked like a charm. I hope this helps someone out.

Actually is possible to remove almost all gunk from inside. Flush it in contra flow under the tap. Then you can soaked in vinegar for 15 min. Then flush it again. Put short rubber pipe on clean side and tapping on the sink rotating the filter. Gunk become loose so you can flush it out. Use vinegar again if needed. Repeat procedure till happy with results. Other option is buy new one somewhere. Or delete it.

THANKS!!! I ALMOST BOUGHT A NEW MACHINE . Had my breville for 3 years thought it was time to retire it. I had low water and no pressure, so I pulled the filter like your said. I BLEW THRU IT USING MY MOUTH.... TOTALLY BLOCKED!!! I removed it and busted it open -- iT wouldn't come open otherwise ... the SCREEN WAS TOTALLY BLOCKED WITH SOME FIBERS -- BLACK GUNK. <--- FIBERS FROM THE REQUIRED BREVILLE FILTER...? Should have blew it out with compressed air, or used a needle to scrape the gunk away. It is just a screen filter to prevent large particles from entering the machine. Just took the whole thing out, will replace later with a better in-line screen filter. PERFECT OPERATION........ EVEN BETTER THAN BEFORE!!! PRESSUE UP TO 12 O-CLOCK POSITION ON MY MACHINE, FIRST SHOT EXTRACTion!!! I SUSPECT THIS I WHY MY MACHINE WAS RUNNING A BIT CRAPPY ALL ALONG...

Where did you get the parts??

Thanks for that, I have replaced the group head seal with a brand new one on the same machine, its fitted correctly and firmly, still water spurting out from the handle cup especially at the beginning then it stops spurting , any idea what could be the problems please ?

Awesome! This tip totally help me fix my breville S820. Just cleaned the filter by reverse flushing it under the tap. Good as new!

Hello, there is a fix for low water temperature? Even at the highest setting, the brew temp is under 190° and the shots are very sour and astringent. What to do to reach 200°? Thanks!
