Subject: Is the pump of my Rancilio Silvia expiring ?
|
The last few days I have a problem with my 1 1/2 year old Rancilio
Silvia. Occasionally it takes some 20 - 25 seconds before the pouring
begins, whereas normally it is in 7-10 seconds. I clean and backflush
(following Randy G's guide) regularly and have done it some 2 weeks ago
for the last time. I also descaled on that occasion. Is the pump dying
or could there be another cause ?

Have you changed your beans or your grinding or tamping?

No, it happens with the same batch. And I use the same tamping.
Strange thing is that one time it goes right and the next time not.
