Calling Dr Rancilios.......weird thing has happened to my Silvia....was struggling this morning to get a shot out of her.....bordeline choking for 2 or 3 shots despite adjusting to a coarser grind.Beans are 5 days old (home roasted),used ok with no problems prior to today. Only way I could get close to a 30ml shot was to adjust Rocky from the typical grind setting of 9 to something around 19 which resulted in a coarse grind more suitable for plunger! Even then puck was very dry.shot came out with a quickly disappearing crema and poor taste........Havent had chance to lift the hood to see if anything obvious .........although not sure what to look for (any loose pipes etc?).
Silvia is about 3 yrs old.......does this sound like a pump problem?? If so any ideas where I can get one??
Saw the thread on doing the pressure test and also read that buying a p/filter w/pressure gauge will tell me whats up but I thought Id run it through CS before going any further.................
