Many thanks .... so the overflow of 10-15ml is normal? So the black cigar is just a sophisticated drain pipe?
thanks again!

That is the three-way solenoid valve. After you finish pouring the espresso and turn off the pour switch, the excess water pressure is diverted via the valve, and drains into the drip tray. This way, you can release the group handle and not have excess water and coffee grounds spray all over you

Ive just descaled my Rancilio Silva and run through 2 tanks of flushing water and noticed that when I switch off the pour there is a residual flow through this black tube thing. I recognise the electrical component as a Parker solenoid valve and wonder if it is malfunctioning - just cant understand why the black cigar thing exists there is a delay is shut off and why is there excess water .... and why is there a black tube thing if it is just excess run off ... etc etc etc
So I now have about 15 ml of excess water after every pour
any ideas appreciated
thanks
