Hi
If there is water on top of the machine when you remove the water tank, this is whats happening.
There is a seal on top of the machine under the water tank. To get to it, remove the water tank, and set aside. There is a large doughnut shaped cap on top of the machine. Slip a screwdriver on the outside edge of the cap and pry up gently. When it snaps up, go to the other side of the cap and do the same. There is a black seal in the center and if you stick your finger in the center and it lifts out it need to be replaced. Clean any residue inside the opening with a Q-tip.
When you get the new seal, it won’t slip in. Insert it at a slight angle (double lips down), then take your finger nail and run it around the bottom edge of the seal until it slips in, then push down. Snap the cap back on and your set to go.

Water tank leaking leaking on my Magic Comfort espresso machine. Does not seal properly when set.

It sounds like the water tank on your Saeco Magic Comfort+ espresso machine is not sealing properly, causing it to leak. Here are a few things you can try to fix the problem:
  • Check the gasket seal on the water tank. The gasket is a rubber ring that helps create a tight seal when the tank is in place. Make sure that the gasket is in good condition and that it is properly seated in the tank.
  • Make sure the tank is properly aligned and seated on the machine. The tank should be flush against the machine and the locking mechanism should be securely in place.
  • Clean the tank and the area where the tank sits on the machine. Any debris or buildup can prevent a proper seal from forming.
  • Check the locking mechanism for any damage or debris.
  • If the issue still persists, you may have to replace the gasket or the water tank, you should consider reaching out to the manufacturer customer service or a technician for assistance.
It is also worth to check the user manual to see if there is any troubleshooting steps or warranty information.
It is important to keep in mind that the water tank of an espresso machine is under pressure, and if the machine is leaking, it could be a sign of a bigger problem with the machine, so it is best to address the issue as soon as possible to avoid any further damage.

Our Comfort machine won't brew and constantly displays, "Fill Watertank" even with the tank full. In order to brew, one has to remove the water tank then gently lower it only partially down in place. As...

Hi
The magnet in the water tanks is either upside down or has sunk to the bottom of the tank. It should float to the top of the cage it is in and it should have a flat top not rounded. If its rounded side up the magnet is upside down. This is what would cause your problem.

Our 7 year old Saeco Magic Delux has started to leak water when we fill the tank. It runs out of the bottom of the tank and down the side. Happens about 20% of the time. Is it worth having a 7 year old one...

If I understand well the problem is only with tanks valve which means the spring have become more soft and stays a litle open so you have water leak. It maybe because some scale or dirt keep it open some time.
In order to decide if it wise to fix it or not the answer is simple if you have a good coffee result in cup which means that the grinder grinds good, presure pump work good and boiler heat up ok then you will only need to complete descale the machine and replace only small cheap parts and you will have a very good machine again for some more years. Remember a brand new machine will do the same espresso like yours.

Water leaking under the tank

If the water is coming from under the cold water tank on the back of the machine it probably the o-ring seal in the grey machine recepticle which is visable when you remove the tank for filling. This seals the tank to the machine body and over time can leak (mine has!!). You can get them from Gaggia UK in Halifax
