Expert Answer

You most likely are missing the "crema filter pin" from underneath the filter basket. It's a small plastic part, that stops the coffee from spraying out of the portafilter in case you use a pressurised basket. You can order the part on the following link and also check the video explaining the problem: https://www.mrbean2cup.co.uk/gaggia-black-two-way-crema-filter-pin-v1
