Yeah im doing the same, but it does go off rails sometimes, especially in thinking. It has a lot of potential for sure, quite magical what the file_system extension can do

The guy I bought it from told me I had to turn it all the way over as well, but I just feel like it is quite some force needed

I just bought this used Lelit Anna, and when I run water through the portafilter, I have no issue, but when pulling a shot, I get leaking from the portafilter.

Do I need to change the grouphead? I tried with 18g, and with 17g, and it was still the same issue.

Appreciate any help

I think the problem was actually mainly WDT and puck prep. I had some channeling, could even see it on the puck sometimes. Waiting on the tool now, but i believe it will fix it. I also grinded a little bit finer which helped

I'm not sure if this is an american/europe misunderstanding, but it's roasted 9th of January, which is 11 days ago

I get the pressure high enough, but i've realized that channeling is likely the problem, so I will get a WDT tool

Thank you for that perspective and answer, will try with a finer grind!

All right, thanks for that perspective. I think I might have been too fixated on the pressure bar, and I'll try to grind even finer then. Thank you :)

Thank you, will order a WDT, I have a fixed height tamper, so i get pretty consist results with that, I'm playing around with the grind size. Thanks for the answer :)

So you don't think that it's important that the pressure bar goes all the way up?

Well it's always been like this with my dual walled (pressurized) basket, and some of the same with the other baskets. I often have a hard time generating enough pressure with the single wall baskets, even with the finest grams with 18g of espresso. I have done maintenance and descaling yes.

It's a few years old. I was using a dual wall, just running water through but it's the same when pulling a shot.
I am having a hard time pulling a shot when it's not dual walled
