When you reattach the basket to the group head. Make sure the rubber seal is the right way around. The seal has a straight edge on one side and a curved edge on the other. The curved edge should be at the top edge of the basket. If it is the other way around the internal basket will not be sealed correctly in the head.
Did that lubricating the lever video ever get made? If not, it would be a big help, particularly if you've done it once and the assembly starts to leak and the pump is clattering!
Alcohol i find the best for rubbing stainless steel... it's doing an excellent work at cleaning and polishing. Also it's a plus if the machine is still warm
Great video! I have a Profitec 500 with flow control and the E61 group. While backflushing, I presume the flow control has to remain open to allow water to flow through the brew head
Hi !!! Sorry yo bothering you but o by maraX but my espresso ☕️ go out no more 2 bar ! And I don’t know why!!! Please Help me or some orientation! Thanks
Just sold the Gaggia because I wasn't using it at all. The Lelit is great, but it also costs so much more money than the Gaggia, so I still think that the Gaggia is an excellent entry level option
Receiving my MaraX in a few days and this video is great!

Yes please a lever video would be very useful, my lelit lever squeaks especially after a back flush cleaning process with chemicals.

thanks for the tip with the spoon to get the screen out
Thanks for the video, it really helped me with the maintenance routine. Please also share how to grease the lever properly. Thank you.

Thanks for your video, I was having a hard time to remove the shower head!
Grazie!!!
I replaced my rubber gasket with a silicon gasket
I clean my machine with Weiman stainless steel clean and polish and in a pinch rubbing alcohol
if you're using a puck screen, how is the shower screen getting dirty?

Hey Maria, did you ever find out what the issue was?
Rubbing alcohol and vinegar diluted in hot water, you can use this to shine most stainless steel products.
Do you still use the Gaggia Classic? If so, when do you prefer to use the Gaggia vs Lelit?

Thanks for the video! What thermometer are you using in the group head? Looks better than the digital ones.
that's a pressure gauge for flow profiling. Not a thermometer.
Exactly what Mario said. I've also heard that the grouphead thermometers are a waste of time, but idk if that's true
