I got one of these from a well known auction site a few months ago.
Didn't turn it on until today (long story).
First cup OK, then could get any water through the grouphead - only steam.
Did a fair bit of cleaning, flushing.
Later in the day made a cup, then it went to steam again.
Using blind filter does not cause pressure gauge to rise, but it drops away.
Does this point to anything particular - pressurestat, overheating?
Previous owner said it was working fine.
