  • We will now focus on opening the heart of the Barista: the boiler.

  • Remove the four hex bolts securing the brew head to the boiler assembly.

  • Lift the brew head off the boiler.

  • Remove the single Phillips screw securing the brew screen and gasket to the boiler housing.

  • The brew screen helps to evenly disperse water across the grounds in the basket.

  • Use a a large standard screwdriver (we used a washer and a pair of pliers) to remove the one-way valve spring retainer from the bottom of the boiler.

  • The one-way valve spring is tuned to only allow the valve to open when the pump is running. This prevents the brew head from dripping while warming up.
