No luck so far. I got some pressure build with the blind PF this morning, but just that once. I tried the turkey baster thing, assuming I did it right (I put the hose on the end of the baster and tried pushing water in, but it wouldn't go).
Liys, I'm not sure what filter would be floating on the water - I might just be dense, so clue me in with a bit more detail :) I do get pressure and steam from the steam wand, and hot water flows nicely from the hot water spout, so this seems specific to the group head/main pump area.
