I've got a Saeco Royal Digital that's about 6 years old. I make about 2 shots a day with it, and I've never done any maintenance other than occasional descaling the machine and rinsing the brew group, tube, nozzles, etc.
Lately, my pucks are getting looser, I'm seeing bits of coffee come through the nozzle, and it's often clogging with grounds, so I only get half a shot.
I remember that when I first got it, I found a great post somewhere online explaining how to get a finder grind than the default "1" setting by adjusting a set screw. Should I do that again, and if so, how? Or should I get replacement burrs at this point, and if so, where? Anything else I should be doing? I've always done the pre-brew, set the grind at 1, and kept the dosing somewhere in the middle of the lever range (which is 6-9g, I believe). The o-ring on the brew group looks like it's in fine shape.
Thanks for any tips.
