    Blocked jet or mesh filter, your in WA so your water quality is terrible, the fact that your getting steam and small amounts of water through the head indicates your solenoid is operating

    La Cimbali M21 Jr - no flow from group head

    Hi all,  complete new comer to this forum having recently manage to pick up a 2nd hand M21 Jr.

    Machine is not at all old - built November 2006.  Everything appears to work perfectly - heats up, fill solenoid works fine, steam perfect, dispensing water from knob o.k, builds to about 1.2 to 1.4 bar etc etc; however when I select any of the 4 shot buttons, I get a puff of steam and very little to zero water flow through the group.

    Having located a copy of the hydraulic circuit it appears something to do with the coffee solenoid, or perhaps some build-up or sticking solenoid?

    I believe the machine had bitting sitting not used for a while when I managed to get hod of it.

    Any advice appreciated - and yes Im looking to take it to the local service agent for a service, but just want to make sure theres no big dramas.
Working...
