    It is recommended to check visually where this water is coming from :)

    Hello. As above, specify where it flows when the door is open. I put a seal on the distributor or distributor piston seal.

    rather technically impossible to see where it leaks in this model with the door open I replaced the seal on the piston and then leaks

    I do not know where the technological barrier may be that prevents leak checking.

    As you can see in the video, the water in the upper part of the brewing chamber and with coffee grounds is pushed into the grounds container. How to fix it ?

    As for mine, if the coffee rings are not too thin, the problem lies on the venting side.
    There are two outputs:
    - heater replacement, which is associated with high costs
    - regeneration of the generator / piston, lower costs but much more work. (dismantle, clean, replace the seals, apply approved grease)
