Hi all,
I have had my Barista Express for a bit under a year now. I do regular maintenance to keep it in a good state, but it has been about 6 weeks ago since I did it a thorough clean (descaler etc.). Today, I wanted to clean the machine properly again and removed the showerhead since it always leaves some residue. When looking at the part underneath, I saw this damage (top right corner).
Is this something to contact sage about? It looks to me like the coating is degrading, which seems weird after less than a year.
In addition I am wondering whether this damage could be bad for your health when still brewing coffee. Now, small parts of the coating might get stuck in the coffee and I cannot imagine this being good for your health…
Many thanks for your tips!
