Replaced the main seal on the espresso machine for the second time. Seems we reliably get about 3 years out of a seal (machine used 4-6 times per day for 2 people).

Yes, it leaks. Water will come out around the portafilter and pressure won't build. In both cases, this has been sudden failure and being left without coffee for the day would be horrific. I have a pour over and a french press handy, so we didn't suffer.
