My Office pulser steamer seems to be leaking. It's venting steam inside the machine. Suggestions? I opened it up but can't find the leak. It's not from any of the connections that I can see.

The most likely cause is a cracked steam heater - if it only leaks when using the steam function - the 615 has one pump - for coffee, Hot water and steam - so that is all good, but has two heaters - one for coffee and hot water - the other for steam. It could be a faulty valve or fitting but in my experience the heater is the first to go
Where is it leaking steam from? If it is from the porta-filter, you need to replace the group head gasket, which is done with something like a screwdriver to get it out.
To solve leak problem you can follow these links " http://www.homeespressomaker.org/2-delonghi-magnifica-espresso-machine-leaks-and-leak-problem-fixed/", " http://delonghimagnificaespresso.info/saeco-italia-espresso-machine-leak/". Hope these will help you.
For the grouphead check the basket there might be a slight bump around the edge that is preventing it from making a good seal when it contacts the gasket in the head. If the Double works fine then the gasket is not the problem. For the steam wand try flushing wand for 3 seconds just before steaming, if that does not help with the watery milk, then the boiler is not getting hot enough to produce steam.
You need to contact Delonghi and order a part. This is the steam/water outlet assembly. This part includes an electronic solenoid which controls the water and steam output. I have had this problem 3 times. You may find the steam/ water is very loose when you try to wobble it sideways. This is the indication as to what is the problem, (as mentioned above).
you have very steam because like you know our loosing our pressure you need a seal kit be carefull when you play in there calcium buildup is very hard to remove cheers
Try opening the frothing valve by turning the dial and force water through it instead of steam by pressing the middle, coffee button. You may be experiencing vapor lock. Once the water comes through the steamer valve, turn the steamer knob off and release the coffee button. Then try the steamer button with the steamer dial open. This may do the trick.
