An easy to use home Espresso machine created by Saeco and rebranded for Starbucks. This machine is excellent for every day espresso drinkers and has an excellent build and product life.

Why does water/coffee overflow my filter handle

The Starbucks Barista machine overflows the Rapporto filter handle. I have cleaned it ensuring the pin and spring assemblies are as before. Cleaned the flat screen, removed it and removed the gasket, cleaned and replaced each of those. The gasket was still very pliable and screen holes were clear. The handle feels like it seats firmly in the ramps and contacts the gasket. Stilll water flows over the filter - and out the coffee hole when pressure builds up. Any thoughts?

The head gasket may be aged and hard, allowing water to leak by.
