This answer is for a Barista model, not a Dual Boiler. There is no stop adjustment and the valve is completely different for the Dual Boiler model.

Mine is leaking water rather than steam. But maybe a water leak comes from the same root cause? I determined that the plastic handle has worn and the steam control lever now moves beyond the valve's fully closed position to a position which is partially open. So if you back up the lever a few degrees it might stop the flow.
I have yet to figure out if there is a way to replace the plastic lever/handle piece.

I have the same problem (water / steam leak). My lever is fine. I am just not sure if it’s an o-ring issue or a valve-issue in my case. I have replace o-rings many times with substitutes but the steam wand o-ring, at least one of them, is very difficult to reach/replace from inside the machine. Any suggestions are welcome.

Same issue. It was fine then started dripping water very very slowly, and now it's a regular spitting of steam - not a lot but it's annoying.
