VBM Common Issues FAQs
The machine is not working?
No water can be pumped?
- Check the Low Water Level Warning Light to see if the reservoir needs to be refilled.
- Check the water reservoir to be sure that the tank is properly seated in the machines. Lift it and set it back into place. You should be able to feel it compress the springs of its platform which engage the safety switch.
- Be sure the Power Switch is turned to Position I or Position II.
The group head is not getting very warm?
- The operating lever on the right side of the group head of the manual model must be in the fully down position, pushed back towards the face of the machines as far as it will go (light pressure is all that is necessary- no need to force the lever). If it is not in this position, the water path for the thermosyphon is restricted and the group head will not reach the proper operating temperature.
- Be sure the Power Switch is turned to Position II.
- Check the Low Water Level Warning Light to see if the reservoir needs to be refilled.
I can pump water, but the water is always cold!
- Check the power switch to be sure that it is in position II.
- Over Temperature Safety Thermostat tripped. This occurs if the pressure stat malfunctions or the water level is not maintained in the boiler. In either case, the boiler can overheat. To save the machines from damage there is an over-temperature thermostat that protects the machines much like a circuit breaker or fuse protects the wiring in your home. And much in the same way as a circuit breaker, the over-temperature thermostat can be reset. If you suspect that the thermostat has been tripped it is important to verify the cause before continuing.
The brew pressure gauge acts erratically
- The brew pressure gauge on the front panel should only be used as a general indicator as to what is happening during the brewing cycle.
- The only time when the gauge will display any useful information is when there is a properly prepared portafilter, filled with properly ground and tamped coffee, locked in the group head, and the brewing process is underway. At all other times, even when the pump is refilling the boiler, this gauge is not displaying any useful information and should be ignored.
- Even when the pull is underway the brew gauge will read a little higher than the actual brew pressure at the coffee. If all is going well, the gauge should read about 9.5 to 10 BAR during most of the pull.
- The pressure gauge is not working? come to see us! It needs replacement!
The machines does not dispense steam
- The hole at the end of the steam/hot water wand is obstructed.

Amazing customer service, best I’ve experienced in a while, very welcoming & friendly. Store was quite busy but staff handled it in their stride & were on the ball & dynamic with every customer they spoke to. Knowledgeable & quick turn around on a machine repair at a reasonable price.
Absolutely fantastic. Friendly. So knowledgeable. Brilliant company. Thank you!
We had a fantastic experience at Eastlink Espresso. The owner is incredibly knowledgeable and very friendly. The prices are competitive. I couldn’t ask for more. We bought a new machine and grinder, it also helps that they can service the machine or help out if you have any issues. My wife and I were very impressed. Absolutely recommend.
Great communication throughout the repairs. The initial assessment was free unlike other places. Super fast turn around time, too. Would recommend any time.
Great place, amazing customer service. Will definitely be back. Neri and Ahmad were super helpful and kindly stayed back to assist
Big thank you to Ahmed and team for their advice and support as we worked through deciding which set up was best for us. We LOVE LOVE LOVE our ECM and look forward to turning it on every morning for outstanding coffee. Really appreciated the tutorial on machine functionality upon delivery. Couldn’t be happier with our experience with Eastlink Espresso
I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with Ahmed and the entire team at Eastlink Espresso. Three months ago, I was in the market for a high-end home setup and purchased a Victoria Arduino Eagle One Prima paired with a Turin DF83V grinder. Stepping into this tier of prosumer equipment is a big investment, but Ahmed made the entire sales process incredibly smooth and stress-free. He was highly knowledgeable, patient with all my questions, and made sure I was completely confident in my choice before walking out the door. I’ve had the setup for three months now, and it has been absolutely flawless—I am enjoying cafe-quality coffee every single day. What really sets Eastlink Espresso apart, though, is their genuine customer service and ongoing support after the sale. It’s rare to find a team this dedicated to making sure you actually enjoy and understand your equipment long after you’ve bought it. I highly recommend Ahmed and the team to anyone looking to upgrade their coffee game. I am definitely looking forward to continuing my business with them for all my future servicing and coffee needs!
Service and sales ….complete happiness and praise for the team and the owner at Eastlink Espresso. Highly knowledgeable and impeccable service to match. I bought a Domestic ECM machine a few years ago now and the machine is perfect for my needs , everything they said it would do it does. Trouble shooting issues over the phone or a complete service, they do to perfection. Well done guys for a small business and will always use and refer to others .
Had my DeLonghi Dinamica Plus repaired here. The turn around time was unexpectedly (and life savingly) quick with the price being very reasonable. Super positive experience and can highly recommend. Wasn't sure if I had another day "pod coffee" left in me...
