How to fix espresso no longer flowing out of Silvercrest SEM 1100 C3?
- A
  Alexander AndersonAug 12, 2025
  If the espresso no longer flows out of your Silvercrest Coffee Maker, it could be due to several reasons. The espresso powder might be too moist or compressed too tightly; in this case, re-prepare the espresso without compressing the powder as firmly, and if needed, use new powder. Another reason could be that the water tank is empty, so fill it with water. Lastly, the holes of the sieve holder openings could be blocked; clean the sieve holder to resolve this.

  Charles ValdezAug 27, 2025
  If the crema from your Silvercrest Coffee Maker is too light and the espresso runs out of the sieve holder quickly, it could be due to not enough espresso powder. Use more espresso powder. Another reason could be that the espresso powder is too coarsely ground; use only espresso powder specially manufactured for espresso.

Why is the crema too dark when using my Silvercrest Coffee Maker?

  Sean SandersAug 31, 2025
  If the crema from your Silvercrest Coffee Maker is too dark and the espresso runs out of the sieve carrier slowly, it might be because you're using too much espresso powder. Try using less espresso powder. Alternatively, the powder could be too finely ground or moist, so ensure you're using espresso powder specifically manufactured for espresso. Another potential cause is a blocked sieve; clean the sieve. Also, ensure that the milk is cold enough, use milk from the refrigerator.
