Thank you so much for your explanation! We were ready to ditch our expensive coffee machine until I learned from you how to clean and change the silicon gasket. It didn't even need a new gasket, just cleaning. P.S. I am a home handy-woman.
Watching this because my breville is spraying water out of one side of the brew head. So when the group head is on, it pushes the water down one side of the puck resulting in poor coffee. Was curious how to remove these parts. Excellent demonstration. I’ve had my machine for years, and have flogged it hard. Time for a new one, but I’m very attached to this machine so keen to set it up in the shed 👌 Thanks for the demonstration. 👍
You made this so simple and I too was scared it was all over for my expensive machine…but you sir showed me it was all of 8.99 and 15 minutes of my time. Thank you for this valuable tutorial!
Thanks a ton. It was so easy to do do following your explanations. I had waited 5 years and the joint to link prior to embarking in this change. I will definitely give more care to my favorite machine from now on.
Thank you, sir. I needed to see what that gasket looked like to make sure I was getting the right one; didn't realize how dirty it could get up there! I'm gonna try cleaning it before replacing it and see if my machine performs better. Thank you!
Excellent step-by-step!!! Thank you I will say, instead of long nose pliers, I used tweezers. Smaller and easy to work in the space but same difference imo. They were just closer than my tools haha.
Thank you. Just what I needed to see. I have two Breville espresso machines, one out of action due to age, but probably also needed the gasket replaced.
This is awesome. Thanks so much for making this video.

Funky you warn us for That we should not pay more then a few dollars but you put only Amazon link. But yah 10$ to save my morning is good for me. Thank you
Thanks for the vid. A few additions and warning from me; I did this and had a Phillips head, not hex, all good! However, I performed this while the machine was still a little warm inside, I'm not sure if this impacted what happened, but the screw head stripped off! So I had to drill it out and re-thread the hole! Just a warning to folks, wait for the machine to be completely cool before trying to remove the bolt/screw or the laws of thermal expansion may bite you like they did me!
I am hope this helps me with pressure problem I am having. I did test using double walled filter and pressure was low. Thank you for posting video with instructions and parts needed.
Great explanation. I was able to pop out the cover with light prying of a spoon and twisting it with my hand. I used tweezers to pull the gasket out. I couldn't believe how dirty the cover was after 2 years despite regular cleaning cycles. I guess before I do cleaning I need to manually take that off and and clean it manually. The most difficult part for me was the alan wrench, the one that came with it was small and I couldn't get leverage, the screw was in there tight and was a bit clogged up with coffee.
Sometimes they come in for repairs here and have been way over filled for many years so the coffee grinds get all up under the screen and block the other small hole that leads too the pressure gauge. It's important not to over pack or over fill the porta-filter:)
How do you fix that if it happens? We have had our machine for just over a year and we and it keeps losing pressure and leaking out the sides of the Porto filter- we have replaced the seal multiple times.
Just to share with you, instead of using the wooden chopsticks, I use tooth brush handle, it works perfectly well without scratching or damaging the group head.
Thanks for this. You also answered a question I had about whether the gasket getting older could cause the filter handle to get tight. Which is can. So double thanks
Good job on the vid. Could/should have been done in half the time. Glad to see presenter had as much grief getting screen and seal out as the rest of us...Chinese engineering?
Hi, thanks for your demonstration, however my concern is the hexagonal bolt which requires the allen key to undo it is stuck tight and cannot be unscrewed. As a last ditch effort I've even tried using WD40 etc to try to lubricate the thread...to no avail. Looks like my Breville BES900 is finished...glad I only paid $400.00 for it on E-bay. Amazing...15 mins later in a do or die effort, I inserted the allen key into the slot as shown on your video, then I held the key with a pair of pliers to give more strength to my efforts...voila !!...it unscrewed, however the allen key is now hideously twisted! So before replacing the silicone seal I sprayed a little WD40 into the allen key hole replaced the silicone seal and with the now hideously twisted allen key, replaced the screw, but not so tight this time and reassembled the machine. I gave the machine a 'clean cycle' run to make sure all traces of WD 40 are now gone. Thanks again for your video...Mike in Australia.
Good! I have a dual-temp that really leaks all around that area. I have replaced the gasket to no avail. I think the problem might be inside. How do you open up that model to get to the inside?
Hello, do you have a a video on repair or replacing the selector that does the espresso, drip hot water, or steam wand? Our selector is busted and when we select steam wand, all the steam comes though the espresso part or into the catch at the bottom with nothing coming out of the want. We have poked the wand, descaled and cleaned the machine. Any help would be awesome!
Believe it or not I haven't replaced my gasket in the 10 years I have owned my 840 XL. But I'm getting ready to replace the pump for the second time. So this time I will also put in a new gasket. There is a video on how to replace the pump and make sure you're buying the right one. It's not too complicated because I know I'm no genius. I can't imagine how many of these machines get tossed in the garbage because the pump goes out. If you are wondering, the new pump is about $40 on Amazon, a little cheaper than a brand new machine and my machine has run another five years before the pump has started to get a little weak.
Hi there, a great video, I’ve done all that but mine starts leaking around the portafilter, and the pressure doesn’t go high enough, only like number 3. I cleaned it nicely and put it back as before and its still giving me a problem. It worked fine before, I have it like 5 years but not used often. Any suggestions?
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 ?
Would it be possible to use the screw itself to pull off the plate by unscrewing it till it's only in the in plate. Therefore it works as a handle for the plate.
Does clean or replace the gasket do help to the pressure when you making the espresso? I am kinda wonder why or when should I do it. I own a 870. Thanks
It could be 3 things that I can think of. Gasket, pump or the pressure release valve. Watch my review on the Breville Infuser I talk a little about that.
After replacing what I thought was a leaky gasket, it still leaks! I have a similar machine the 800sxl. It doesn't leak when there is no coffee. There is too much water coming out that it dilutes the espresso. I seated the filtr in the the ring and carefully replaced it. After a few attempts and still having leaks I gave up. Any ideas?
@@staticmx I don't know if this is the case for you, but after buying the official gasket directly from breville it fixed my issues (at least 90% better). The one I bought from Amazon was just not quite right I guess.
@@ureviews someone else bought the gasket and I don't see any folds, also when I use a 7 gram scoop in the double shot one it doesn't spray water everywhere and works fine.
Breville 866.273.8455 part #SP 0001474 cost about $2.99 each better order 3 of them shower head gasket or steam ring gasket yes it's the 54mm ID gasket for my machine BES870XL probably others too
If you're technically inclined... Open the machine run it and see if there's any leaks on the inside. There's a post in the description on how to open it.
@@ureviews I found the leak is where you disconnect little rubber hose at the top of the joint where you unscrew pump water is leaking there, so I figure order a new pump as it sounds little different than my cafe Roma pump. Production day on pump 2014 this is Breville duo temp pro
It would help if you mentioned how to install a new gasket- as in which side of the new gasket faces the machine. I bought a new one, but the old one was wrecked so I couldn’t use it for reference. I can fit the new gasket in place three different ways and can’t find any reference as to what is the right way.
First of all, way to be helpful. If you know the answer, you could have just answered the question. Apparently it isn’t obvious, otherwise I wouldn’t have asked. Secondly, he asks for suggestions on how he could make the video better or more helpful. For as long as the video is, verbalizing the proper orientation of the gasket would ensure that the video is clear and helpful to those, who like me, bought the new gasket on Amazon and didn’t receive any installation instructions. For those who have the same question: The rounded edge of the gasket goes towards the machine. See how easy that was, Dave?
@@JoshPSommers Dude, open your eyes next time instead of bitching and complaining in the comment section. The gasket orientation was so obvious it's not even funny.

Thanks a ton. It was so easy to do do following your explanations. I had waited 5 years and the joint to link prior to embarking in this change. I will definitely give more care to my favorite machine from now on.
Thanks, that made it easy. I like that you go at a normal pace so I could follow along in real time. Liked the chopstick hint.
Thank you very much for your explanation, I going replace the gasket for my coffee machine but I don't know how. Thank you
Great instructions...what made it easier to get the seal out was that I had a pair of fine surgical clamps, just perfect for the job. Thanks
Thank you, sir. I needed to see what that gasket looked like to make sure I was getting the right one; didn't realize how dirty it could get up there! I'm gonna try cleaning it before replacing it and see if my machine performs better. Thank you!
You're welcome. I'm still on the original gasket. I make it a habit to clean everything when the light to clean comes on.
Great instructions. Clear and useful. Fixed the shorting on my machine.
Great - thanks a lot! I had to change the seal and had no idea how to do it - you just saved me $150 on a service fee!!
Thanks my friend and for all detailed video and for helping us to fix our Breville Coffee Machine, thanks for sharing us on those experiences
Excellent step-by-step!!! Thank you
I will say, instead of long nose pliers, I used tweezers. Smaller and easy to work in the space but same difference imo. They were just closer than my tools haha.
Thanks man, that was a really easy to follow video, and you give great tips for how to save the machine from damage! Love the chop-sticks idea!!!
Thanks for making this I just followed along and done the job. Used my tweezers to pull out the ring
Thank you. Just what I needed to see. I have two Breville espresso machines, one out of action due to age, but probably also needed the gasket replaced.
Thank you very much, I have fixed the leaking following your tips. cheers.

There's zero chance you stripped it because it was hot.
I am hope this helps me with pressure problem I am having.
I did test using double walled filter and pressure was low. Thank you for posting video with instructions and parts needed.
If it doesn't help try cleaning using citric acid a few times (run maybe 2 tanks)
Omg thank you! Haha I’ve been struggling with this for a week now and this was great.
NICE! Glad it helped.
Great video! Thanks for making this!
Thank you so much!! I never knew how to get the screen out and this was my last ditch effort to keep from buying a new machine.
Don't buy a new machine! These are very repairable for some things

Thanks! Worked great on a Breville Cafe Roma!
Thanks this has heped me a lot
Cheers, that saved us $100 plus at repair shop,
who by the way said it was hard to do...
Just to share with you, instead of using the wooden chopsticks, I use tooth brush handle, it works perfectly well without scratching or damaging the group head.
The top of the breville brush is perfect!
well done 👍👍👍thank you!!! Can't believe that some people rate 👎.

The advice in the manual about using a toothpick will help the Allen key contact a lot making it easier to extract

Hi, I replaced the gasket now it only sprays water when there's coffee in.
Check the gasket. Does it match the old gasket? See if it got damaged. Make sure you have it sitted with no folds...
@@ureviews someone else bought the gasket and I don't see any folds, also when I use a 7 gram scoop in the double shot one it doesn't spray water everywhere and works fine.
