Hello,
I've been working with my AEG Silenzio for a few days now and just don't get happy with the taste/aroma.
What I've done so far:
1. Replaced the boiler with a new one because the temperature of the coffee was too low
2. Disassembled brewing flask, cleaned and fitted new seals
3. brewing group intensively cleaned and greased
4. black vent hose (leading away from the boiler) cleaned
5. grinder removed and cleaned
6. machine decalcified and completely cleaned
7. different grinds tested.
lastly I tested two high quality coffees, but the taste is unfortunately not what I hope for yet. I simply miss the aroma.
If I look at the "aroma-checklist" here, then the missing pressure could still be a cause. The pump seems to pump and run as it should, but of course I can't tell if the pressure is sufficient. Is there any way to check that out?
Is there any other thing I could do to be happy with my machine?

Set a picture of half a Puk.
How thick is this with strongest aroma and 2-cup cover?

Good morning,
I have to apologize, but I have only now come to take the photo.
In the attachment the photo. Strength is about 20mm

I'm afraid I can't complain. Puk looks good. Personally I would make it even finer but much more taste change would not come out there either.

As I mentioned before, I suspect the pump. Is there any testing possibility?

If enough comes out of the coffee spout, it should be good.

A pressure measurement in idle mode is not necessarily meaningful.
A pressure measurement during the reference should already be.

Well, I can complain about that. I find the grind far too coarse. Where does it stand?

Greeting Stefan
