Krups XP2070 - steam wand not working - steam comes out of espresso filter instead of the wand.

SOURCE: My Breville800ESXL makes steam but does not make espresso.

jejones is right. try a coarser grind. it still makes great espresso, especially if you really pack a lot of ground coffee into the filter basket. Just make sure it is a bit coarser than you would normally use for machines without the dual wall filter basket.

SOURCE: Water not coming through espresso side although steam wand works fine

you both can have same problem, solution is:

1. low pressure of pump (or too fone grinded coffee)
2. security valve of boiler openes to early and dont let the pump to rise pressure enough for good brewing( if it is this you can see water returning back to container if you have 2nd pipe in your machines reservoir)

Sounds like a clogged steam pipe or a jammed two-way valve. First, I would try unfolding a small paper clip and then stick it up the spout of the steam pipe. if this does not free up the steaming arm then it is most likely a clogged two way valve.

This will most likely happen when the pressure valves become defective. Replacing the two valves (they come in pairs) should fix the problem.

SOURCE: I have a Krups xp2070 that sends hot water to the

The unit has two pressure valves that control release to the drip tray. Once they fail the hot water will go directly to the drip tray when the pressure goes up. The fix will be to replace the pressure valves (pair in series) which only cost about $20. I replaced mine and it fixed the problem. Good luck and happy espressos.
