Espresso spitting all over, help! [De’Longhi 15 Bar Machine]
To preface - I know espresso machines can be a challenge but DANG! I’ve been trying to get this to work for 2 days. I got this De’Longhi 15 espresso machine from FB marketplace. It works perfectly fine for the og owner, however, I’m not sure why the espresso is not filtering through and spitting all over. I also was having trouble making sure the portafilter turned to center, but I finally got it. I’m using the illy Intenso Ground Espresso Coffee, Bold Roast. I know it’s not the best but it’s what I had on hand already. Could it be the ground?
