    I have this machine over a year. Lately I’ve been noticing the coffee waste is very damp and moist when it used to be dry. Is there a reason for this?

    Is the solenoid valve bad? Maybe it's not soaking up the puck.

    Most likely this if there is one.

    I have another model. But mine is always damp since day 1 leading to mold etc.

    Should it not be like this?

    Just to update.
    Did a bit of you-tubing. I stripped down the piston mechanism, cleaned it all and put silicone gel on the large orange washers. Seems to have worked very well. I also turned the mill on with the beans back a notch or 2.
    I’ve new orange washers ordered from eBay and I’ll change them if this issue arises again.
    Hope this helps somebody in the future
