Typical faults on the Sage Barista Express
No or low pressure
The gauge barely moves and the coffee runs thin. Usually scale, a worn pump or a valve that doesn’t close.
Leaking at the group head
Water around the portafilter is usually a hard or flattened group head gasket. A quick, inexpensive repair.
Grinder not grinding
The grinder hums without grinding, or grinds unevenly. Often a blockage, worn burrs or a motor fault.
Flashing lights
Most often the water tank, the bean hopper or a cleaning reminder. If it keeps flashing, it can be the heating or a sensor.
Steam wand not working
No or weak steam is often scale in the steam path, a blocked steam tip or a valve.
Water under the machine
A leaking hose, a perished O-ring or a cracked part inside the machine.

Questions about the Sage Barista Express
Is it worth repairing a Barista Express?
Usually, yes. Most faults come down to gaskets, scale or single parts, and the repair costs far less than a new machine. If it isn’t worth it, we’ll tell you honestly.
Do you also repair the Barista Express Impress?
Yes. The Impress has the same basic design, and we repair both versions.
How much does a repair cost?
It depends on the fault and the parts that need replacing. Answer a few short questions here and send a photo, and you’ll get a ballpark price straight away. The exact price we can only give once the machine is on the bench – that is the only way to see what is actually wrong. You get the price before we start, and you decide.
Can I get the price before I drop the machine off?
You can get an estimate from your description and a couple of photos. The binding price comes once we have seen the machine. If it is higher than you expected, just say no thanks.
What does it cost if I say no thanks?
Nothing. The assessment is free and non-binding. If you turn down the price, you get the machine back as it is, with no bill.
How long does it take?
Usually 3–7 days, often faster. If special parts need ordering, you’ll hear about the timing together with the price.
Is there a warranty on the repair?
Yes, a 12-month warranty. It covers the fault we repaired and the parts we fitted. If the same thing fails again within the year, we put it right at no charge. It does not cover new faults unrelated to the repair, limescale from not descaling, or damage from misuse.
How do I get the machine to you?
You drop the machine off with us at Nyborggade 11D, Østerbro. We agree on a time once you’ve sent your enquiry. If you need it picked up, just say so and we’ll find a solution.
Is Sage the same as Breville?
Yes. Sage is the name Breville uses in the UK and Europe. A Sage Barista Express is the same machine as a Breville Barista Express, and we repair both.
Do you speak English?
Yes. Write to us in English, and we’ll reply in English.
