This has got to be one of the best tutorial videos I've ever seen on youtube. Just showing every step, no cuts, being 100% clear on what to do - amazing! Thank you a ton :)
Все понятно, без разговоров. Мастер своего дела.
Thanks for the video. It helped me to fix my machine.
Followed it step by step and it paid off! Got my machine working again like new! Thank you so much!!🙌
Thank you for saving us! After two days of finding the right solution I just found your video and it really helped!
Thank you for your video! My coffee maker wasn't working, no coffee was coming out, but with your video, I dared to try, and everything went great. It works like new, thank you!
Many thanks for sharing :) I wouldn't have tried without it!
I disassembled both half-frames at the end to get good access to the yellow carriage sliders. Found out it may be easier to remove the fork at that stage than when it's inside as shown in the video.
Agree with these comments. What an amazing, clear, detailed, no nonsense video!!! We need more people in the world like you!!!
Thank you for the compliments! I will try to make new and useful videos for you!

nice video, but that long spring is located in one more plastic part (plastic tube) - that can be pulled out and there is one more slim O-ring ;) sorry for my bad english
Amazing work thank you from Canada! My brew unit valve is not engaging under full pressure so it won't pass coffee, the system just blows water past all seals wherever it can.
With the spring and ball removed from the brew unit, coffee will flow, but of course not very tasty.
Have you had this problem with the brew unit valve before and what would you recommend?
I have been having so many problems with my machine and I don't think the brew group was tamping properly. Lubricating it may just have done the trick. Thank you
Thank you!
Thank You !! 👍👌✌️
Hello & thankyou for your tutorial,
I have a Saeco Intelia HD8752 about 11 years old with the following issue:
If the unit hasn’t been used for a few hours or the power plug is unplugged and plugged back in again, upon power-up, the automatic rinse cycle starts as it should:
You can hear the pump groaning, sounds like it is blocked.
This automatic start up rinse is either very slow with little intermittent hot drips taking many minutes for the cycle to complete - which then leads to normal use.
OR
No automatic start up rinse drips and therefore the process fails entering into ‘prime mode’ which also fails & leads to an unusable ‘maintenance spanner symbol’ code 5.
The only way to bypass this is to unplug and re-plug in the power plug, power-up the unit, then as it tries to perform the automatic rinse cycle, manually press the STOP option to bypass the automatic rinse and then the machine can be used as normal & makes great coffee.
Note: The above symptom’s got worse after I performed a de-scale cycle, which failed at the end with of the final rinse / prime - but fully worked up until that final point.
Maybe there is lime scale lodged in one of the following places:
1. Boiler
2. Solenoid valve
3. Steam & water regulator
Note: This is strange because it is 100% possible to run the manual rinse cycle as per the instructions: Press the ‘pre-ground’ coffee button (with no coffee in it), then press the coffee / memo button and it does a big hot rinse no problems at all.
Also, after use, when the unit is powered off, it performs a small rinse cycle with continuous hot running water coming out the dispenser, but only for a very short time.
I have totally re-built the brewing unit per various RUclips demonstrations with new stainless steel plunger screen + plunger o-ring, disassembled & blasted out all the tiny holes in the plastic plunger, made sure all the elbows and holes are clear and clean, installed the valve spring and glass ball correctly, greased all the o-rings, sliders and pivots.
I have also fully taken apart the dispenser locater under the LCD display, disconnected the tube that connects to the brew unit, blasted water + compressed air through it so that it is 100% clear. Fully internally cleaned out the dispenser unit.
I have calibrated the coffee grinding unit.
The other issue I have is that that GREEN does not work on the LCD display - however I can still faintly see the LCD instructions - enough to get by.
I haven’t run the LCD display diagnostics because that is too difficult to see / follow. But it seem like the pump + grinder & heater all work.
I have disconnected & reconnected the LCD & checked the other wires, but can’t see any damage.
Years ago the green would flicker on every now and then, but dead these days..
Merci 🙏🏽 😁
Пошаговая инструкция от мастера очумелых ручек!
After removing the crema valve from the piston/tamping assembly from the brew unit of an older (5 + yrs) Saeco Exprelio Evo for the very first time, I noticed that there was no tapered spring and glass ball valve. We're these specific parts not required at the time of manufacture of my unit or could they have forgotten to install them at the factory? I took time to clean the screen and it appeared to be in good shape. I recently noticed a lot of coffee grounds scattered inside the housing. I plan on replacing the large piston O ring and hope that helps. Any other advice?
Thank you!
Thank you!!! 👌
Perfect video! Can You please provide the o-rings measurements that are used in the brewing unit. Also shoult they be changed at regular basis or after inspection?
Hello! I don’t remember exactly, but a large seal is 40 × 4 mm. Change as necessary if it is stretched or has defects.
Thanks for the video. Can you do a short one as to how the brew head works and make coffee?
Hello! Unfortunately, it is difficult for me to explain how it works. I repair and service. I share this with you!
@@saecoffeetime1148 It's ok, I saw it on another video.
Thanks man!
Thank you!!!!!!!
Thanks for the great Video! Which grease do you recommend? Where can I buy it?
THE BEST!!!
Great Video ... THUMBS UP! Should something like this be done every 1 to 2 yrs to maintain your brew unit? or was this just for a specific fix?
Hello! This procedure is desirable to do 1 time per year!
Wow. Great video. Mine works still ok, but I assume one of the o-rings are wrong, because at start I can hear and see some steam on the side. Any idea which o-ring to replace?
Replace all three o-rings. Steam from the side of the teapot is normal.
hello from Ukraine, thanks for HELP)your video helps me to find the place of small ring)))good luck, subscribe for you grow
Merci
Great video, thanks! I took apart the brew group to my 13 year old Gaggia Platinum Swing Up, but.... there was NO little spring and glass ball (shown at 0:20). Did the older brew groups not have one? No one has taken this apart before me. I've put it back together, and it's working as it did before. Should I get one, and put it in??
Hello! A glass ball with a spring creates water backwater. The pressure in the coffee pomace increases and the coffee oils are pulled out of the coffee. You can buy a ball and spring and try to install. Perhaps you will see a difference in coffee if, of course, the pump pushes through such pressure. I don't know, maybe you have an SBS valve installed and then a spring with a ball is not needed. If possible, send me a photo of your teapot to me in the Viber application and I can tell you more accurately. Thank you for using my videos!

@@saecoffeetime1148 I DO have an SBS valve on my brew unit (the exact brew unit is a "11005921 SBS"). I didn't realize that the SBS valve negates the need for the spring and ball. Thank you!!
@@DogSuru Thank you for using our video!
WOW Thanks ;)
Hi. What kind grease do you use? Thanks a lot
Thanks! Can this maintenance also solve the spontaneously opening door when making coffee with my xelsis?
Hello! Should help! But the reasons may be different.
Where could I get just the spring with the small white piece on it?
Thanks for explaining it so well.
I am looking for an answer to this question as well
Great job on the video! I cleaned my brew group, but my machine still doesn’t dispense.
After taking it apart and trying to get it to run, I found if I remove the glass bead and spring it works, but makes awful coffee.
The o rings on the nozzle from the machine to the brew group look to be in good shape.
I have very hard water. I clean it with vinegar every time the light comes on to descale.
Is my pump shot?
What do you think?
I’d be grateful for your input!
Thank you.
Did you figure it out? I have almost the same problem. I get a red screen with error, and something KICKS the door out. If I remove the brew unit, there's a rotor noise, and then if I put it back, it makes coffee.
@@ndavid7307 After speaking with a few people, the best guess was a weak pump, so I ordered a new one.
In order to get the old one out, I had to take the unit so far apart that I think it will be a miracle if I'm able to get it back together.
@@joesbarbecue1 I took it to warranty (but they denied to service it for free, saying it was my fault). They said it's the 'infuser', I don't know what the hell it's that.
@@ndavid7307 I just found and printed the schematic and parts list. There is nothing called an infuser. They must be referring to the brew group.
Here's a happyassed update. I got the pump installed, and sure enough it brews again. I tested it brewing 5 or 6 cups, then finished reassembling the thing about 4 this morning.
Somehow, I ended up one screw short. I looked everywhere for it, and it couldn't be found. So I skipped one screw in the door hinge, then set the unit back up in the kitchen so the wife could have an easy coffee before starting her early day.
The good news: We found the screw!
The bad news: It fell into the grinder.
The machine is back on the bench awaiting a new grinder gear, and new grinding plates.
I'm thinking about giving up coffee.

Should you be able to blow air through the part you remove 00:17 ?
Super thuis up
Thanks for the comment!
Great! can you pls share a link for grease type to use ? generally i can find only 5gr tubes (very expensive)
Hello! In Belarus, grease is sold in cans of 1 kilogram, in a tube of 300 grams and a tube of 100 grams. In your area, I recommend looking for yourself. If this lubricant is not available, then you can use any food-grade silicone. Good and delicious coffee!
Hello and thank you for this very clear video.
I have a problem with my Philips Lattego 5400: I clean it roughly every 2 weeks and I find a lot of coffee grounds everywhere in the body of the machine itself. Every time the machine asks me to empty the water and coffee grounds, I find lots of coffee grounds in the dirty water container and there are coffee grounds accumulated everywhere when I remove the unit 154206 :(
However, the machine makes coffee normally, that's what I don't understand...
Could you tell me what is not working correctly?
that's not right, something goes wrong with the grinder, open it up, top cover is just 3 screws + 1 screw in the grinder, a lot of tutorials for it is available. Common issue for this machine is broken plactic around grinder, maybe that's your case
@@hungryseeker Hello ;)
Thank you for your feedback. In fact I haven't updated my comment, but everything is back to normal after following this tutorial from A to Z.
The coffee machine is working perfectly again.
The major problem was the severe lack of lubrication of the moving parts. So I strongly recommend that all users of this machine follow this tutorial and do it roughly twice a year at least.
hello! my brew group makes a really loud "CROP" noise when i try to power down my coffee machine after making coffee. I am guessing the brew group is going back to home position. Is this a sign that i need to overhaul my brew group already. i have had the coffee machine for only half year so far and made maybe less than 500 cups thus far? Kinda way too early for me to overhaul the BG for me but i thought i should ask first!
I would claim under warranty. I have my machine for a month and already brewed about 150+ cups and it is working fine.
Hi! Any suggestions, please, why after servicing my brew group and changing all O rings - the fresh grounded coffee dropping over the back side of the brew group? Any idea, what I made wrong?
The machine is a Giro Black Plus

What do you use as a cleaning liquid?
I use lye. I recommend that you use a grease remover, a cookstove cleaner.
Hello, i have one question. I have EP4346 coffee machine. Yesterday i was cleaning brew unit, i removed and washed it. When i was cleaning brew unit slot area, i saw a very small washer which is dark brown color . I could not find where this washer dropped from. Do you have any idea?
Hello! Unfortunately I can't imagine where it comes from.
what do you call the spring in 4:49? and the little ball he dropped into the hole there? i didn't have one in my coffee machine
Creamer spring / counterpiston spring / conical spring. This makes the coffe creamier.
Thanks !
You can also apply on the O-ring

Hello! Unfortunately, I can’t tell you where you can buy it in your country. I buy on AliExpress. The seal is large in size OD 40mm-4mm. The spout has two seals, dimensions OD 9mm-2mm and OD13mm-2mm. I select the size myself and buy 100 pieces.
My gaggia leaks coffee into the grounds drawer, half goes into the cup half into the drawer could u please tell we which o-ring to replace
The problem is probably not in brew unit but in the two gaskets on water valve. Take out brew unit and look inside an espresso machine, there is a "stick" with two gaskets, one bigger than other (both are very small). Change those, also change the main gasket on the piston of the brew unit (orange one).
Attention, the last detail can be directed both to the left and to the right, depending on the model.
I fear that I will never get it back together again the right way...😢

Где можно купить вилку варочного блока на Саеко Филлипс?
Здравствуйте! Предположу что можно купить в сервисном центре по ремонту кофемашин вашего города. Если в вашем городе нету то всегда можно приобрести онлайн с доставкой по почте.
Как часто, промывать и смазывать блок, без разборки?
Промывать раз в неделю чтобы не образовывалась плесень. Смазывать 1 раз в месяц.
Hello can you tell me measurement of the rubber sealing from plastic tube on 0:54 s I need to replace it. Thx
Hello! I did not measure this seal and now there is no way to measure it. This seal has no wear life. The reason is that it is not mobile and has no mechanical load. The manufacturer does not sell this seal as a separate item. I recommend that you measure the stem and hole yourself, pick up something similar from silicone seals.
@@saecoffeetime1148 Thanks fo soon answer, I dont know how to do that because when i see your gasket in the video mine is too thick (half from yours) and dont hold tight in my plastic tube
@@filipkudela8928 Even if you remove the gasket from this tube, this will not particularly affect the operation of the coffee machine. The gasket simply seals the tube seat. You can apply polyurethane glue instead of a gasket along the entire length of the tube from the outside and install the tube in place. The glue will replace the gasket and do the job.
can you please help me ? after cleaning the brew unit, my coffee machine just gives a very light coffee even with maximum setting . do you maybe know what the issue is ? with kind regards Danny
Hello! There can be a lot of problems. I can’t guess your problem, but all the signs indicate that the board’s firmware is not working correctly. Try going into the coffee machine menu and resetting the settings to factory settings. Subsequently, the coffee machine should automatically adjust the dose of coffee within 10-15 servings.
почему не разобрали основной корпус заварочного блока? Приводной механизм желтого цвета, который внутри блока, подвергается нагрузке и требует смазки.

Hello sir. I need some help. How do we repair the SWITCH to pull this one out? It was forced so it lost its original position. I was trying to pull that part out while the machine was ON because I was going to put back the recently cleaned tray, and while pulling this one and pressing the switch (which is so hard while the coffee machine is on) I accidentally snapped it and never went back to its original position. Any tips please? 😢 Would highly appreciate your help.
See if there are other videos that have information!

What about a little glass ball?
It dropped and i don't know from where
Hello! If you look closely, you will see that the spring has a small white sole that performs the same function as a glass ball. There is a ball and there is something like a capsule on a spring.
There are two options in the brewing unit, 1 ball, 2 small valve on a spring. This one has 2 options. In your case, the ball + spring.
If I do that with my machine, I lose it for sure, because I won't be able to reassembly it correctly.
May I ask the model number of the screwdriver? thank you

Holy crap, this is too much work! How often are you doing this to a brewing machine? Every 12 months?
Once a year if the coffee machine is used at home. Twice a year if the coffee machine is used in an office environment.
@@saecoffeetime1148 i cant believe my naviglio broke down several days ago. And i own it only for 8 months. Boiler got fried.
I have had my Saeco Encanto Deluxe 14 years. I am now getting leakage (extra water in tray). I ordered ring/seal kit. Hopefully, I will get many years of reliability after the refresh.
I have 3 red lights and the grinding does not work any more, anybody can help ?
Hello! Maybe your coffee grinder has stopped working. A foreign object could get into the grinder, thereby blocking it. I recommend that you contact the nearest service center for the repair of coffee machines. We are happy to help you, but we may be too far away from you!
