Problem for Gaggia Classic Espresso Machine

After descaling my classic, no water is coming out

I went through the first stage of de-scaling - 20 second operation, waited 20 minutes operated the machine again and now no water is coming out of the machine head. Steam comes out of the frother ok.
Before I started to de-scale, I removed the metal filter and cross head screw from the machine as per instructions.
What should I do next ??

I have exactly the same problem.
I have taken the whole thing apart and tried descaling the brew head when it was off, by soaking it in descaling solution.
Reassembled ... and exactly the same as before.
ESWorld - Where is the valve in the brew head and what hoses should I check for blockages?
Thanks!

Try running the descale again it is possible that some of the minerals got loose and blocked the valve in the brew head. If that does not work then you will have to open the machine and unblock the valve or hose that is clogged.
