After 3 years of problem-free use, my Solis Master 5000 coffee machine has started tripping the GFI breaker during the brew cycle. It seems to occur right after it finishes grinding, while it is tamping the grounds. I've moved it to multiple outlets, on different circuits, and it still trips the GFI. I cleaned it THOROUGHLY and the problem is now only intermittent. Still, I am concerned that I might have a serious electrical issue here.

It sounds like the power filter(capacitor) located under the pump is damaged.
