Our dual-wall filter basket for the Breville Barista Express appears to be clogged. The video here is long but shows pulling a shot of water through the single-wall basket (fine) and then the dual-wall basket. We've been using the dual-wall basket for years now, this isn't the first time it's happened but is the first time it's stayed like this. I've tried:
- Soaking with a Cafiza tablet
- Soaking with vinegar and baking soda
- Burning off on a gas stove
- Poking through the exit hole with Breville's included pin. It took a long time but is now clear.
Anyone have other suggestions? Or do I just buy a new basket?
