  If the espresso no longer flows out of your Silvercrest Coffee Maker, there could be several reasons. It might be that the espresso powder is too moist or compressed too tightly; in this case, try re-preparing the espresso, but do not compress it so tightly, or exchange it completely. Another reason might be that there is no water in the water tank; fill the water tank with water. The holes in the sieve carrier openings could also be blocked; clean the sieve carrier.

It's also possible that the powder is too finely ground or moist; use only espresso powder specially manufactured for espresso. Finally, the sieve might be blocked; clean the sieve.

Also, make sure the water tank is filled with water. Finally, check the sieve carrier openings for blockages and clean the sieve carrier if needed.
