So I've had a Saeco Magic Cappuccino/Espresso Machine for about a month now, and lately the coffee it makes hasn't been as good (it's been watery).
I took the basket out of the portafilter and noticed that many of the little holes in it have fine coffee grinds caked on that won't come out with warm soapy water and elbow grease. I've done some searching online and found out that it's not recommended to use a pin to clean out the holes, because you could damage the basket.
So, coffee snobs of ATOT, how do I unclog this thing properly? I really want good coffee again.
