Hello,

During cleaning, I discovered that the group nozzle (no. 9) was broken and was replaced with a spare part and carefully tightened. The fixing screw (no. 56) of the strainer/seal was also tightened carefully so that it would not get stuck later.

Later it became apparent that the brew group was leaking and dripping. Unfortunately, I was no longer able to open the brew group. The fastening screw (no. 56) is quite tight. It can then be turned with a lever/ratchet - but it does not come loose, instead the whole strainer and seal turn with it.

Perhaps someone has similar experience and knows a trick for opening the screw.

Thanks!
Chris
