Espresso Machine: Makes Loud Sounds
An espresso machine that is making loud sounds is an obvious indication that a repair is needed. Check for any signs of damage to the valve, solenoid, coil, pump, and thermal block. Read our guide for tips on how to determine which part is causing the issue and how you can make the repair yourself. If you require detailed information on your model, refer to your owner's manual.
Pumps
If the pump in your espresso machine is burnt out, it can cause loud sounds and also stop working. The pump should make humming and pulsing sounds when in normal operation, if not, then it is best to replace it

Coils
The coil creates a magnetic field which helps moves the plunger downwards. This initiates the opening of the valve. If the valve is working, but your espresso machine is making loud sounds, then check to see if the coil is damaged. If so, replace coil

Solenoids
If your espresso machine is making loud noises the solenoid valves may be stuck or open or it might be closed. The valves control the flow of water going through the hydraulic system and allow water to pass from brew boiler to coffee ground. If they are damaged, they can allow water and steam to escape, as well as put stress on the pump. If you check your valves for damage, replace them. Make sure to unplug machine from power source before beginning this installation as a safety precaution.

Blocks
The thermal block, also known as the generator or boiler, heats up the water in your espresso machine to prepare for brewing or steam unless it is clogged. If clogged, the pump is forced to work harder and can make loud noises. Make sure to replace thermal block if this occurs.
