How to fix no steam from my Breville Coffee Maker?

Why is water not flowing from the group head of my Breville Dual Boiler BES900?

Why does espresso run out around the edge of the filter holder on my Breville Dual Boiler BES900?
If espresso runs out around the edge of the filter holder on your Breville Coffee Maker, there might be a few reasons. First, make sure the portafilter is fully inserted and rotated until you feel resistance. Second, check for any coffee grounds around the rim of the filter basket and clean them off to ensure a good seal. Finally, ensure you're not using too much coffee in the filter basket; the upper edge of the metal cap on the tamper should be level with the rim of the filter basket after tamping.
Why does espresso only drip from the portafilter on my Breville Coffee Maker?
If your Breville Coffee Maker is producing espresso that only drips from the portafilter, it could be due to several reasons. The coffee might be ground too finely, so try using a slightly coarser grind. You might also be using too much coffee in the filter basket, so try lowering the dose. Additionally, the coffee may be tamped too firmly; aim for between 15-20kgs of pressure. Finally, the dual wall filter basket could be blocked; use the fine pin on the cleaning tool to clear the outlet hole on the underside of the filter basket.

If your Breville Coffee Maker isn't producing enough crema, it could be due to a couple of reasons. The coffee beans might be stale, so try buying freshly roasted coffee with a “roasted on” date. Also, if you're using pre-ground coffee, make sure you're using Dual Wall Filter Baskets instead of Single Wall Filter Baskets.
