What to do if espresso no longer flows out of my Silvercrest Coffee Maker?

  If the espresso no longer flows out, it could be due to several reasons. The espresso powder might be too moist or compressed too tightly; try re-preparing the espresso without compressing the powder so firmly, and use new powder if needed. Another cause may be that the water tank is empty, so fill it with water. Also, the holes of the sieve holder openings could be blocked, so clean the sieve holder.

  If the espresso drips over the edges of the sieve holder instead of from the openings, ensure that the sieve holder is correctly inserted. Also, the sieve holder openings may be blocked, so try cleaning the sieve holder. Finally, espresso powder residues on the edges of the sieve holder can cause this issue, so clean those residues off.

  If the crema is too light and the espresso runs out quickly, it may be caused by not using enough espresso powder, so use more espresso powder. Alternatively, the espresso powder may be too coarsely ground; use only espresso powder specially manufactured for espresso.

  If the crema is too dark and the espresso runs out slowly, you might be using too much espresso powder, so try using less. It could also be that the powder is too finely ground or moist, so use only espresso powder specially manufactured for espresso. Also, the sieve could be blocked, so clean the sieve.

  If your espresso is cold, the appliance may not have been preheated, so preheat it. Also, wait until the green heating-up control lamp lights up. Finally, the cups may not have been pre-warmed, so pre-warm them.
