Check the bottom of the container, there is a spring loaded valve and an o-ring, one of them might be damaged or not seated properly.
Question : What type of coffee are you using? Is it flavored or oily?
On cleaning I will assume that you are reffering to the brew unit, and not a descaling on the machine. If the problem is the brew unit Try cleaning it out with purocaff or cleancaff espresso machine soap and hot water that will dissolve the coffee oils, and clean the passages on the brew unit more efficiently. Remove shower screen and either soak in purocaff solution or hold over open flame to clean (the coffee oil will burn faster than the screen).
If it is descaling that you are referring to when yo say cleaning, try using ScaleKleen or a nickel safe cleaner. They do a more thorough job of descaling the espresso machine.

Theres is a rubber seal on the machine where the water tank goes on it shrinks and needs replacement overtime
There are many possible points that the leak can be.
All points of the water supply from water tank to the pressure pump then to boiler and finally to coffee group. All this are connected together with plastic or Teflon pipes with easy fit unions secure with clips
You need to disassemble the machine and work it without the side panels of course with extra care since power electrical cables are exposed.
In this way with a very good visual check while the machine is in operation you can identify the leaking point and fix it.

our trevi spidem machine is leaking; as if the water refuses to get into the machine when it comes out of the container. we've checked the spring under the container and tested it; it works just fine, the water comes out normally... we clean our machine often and when we cleaned it, the problem goes away for 2-3 days...
thank you!
