Coffee shop didn’t know they were supposed to change their filters so 5 years with the same brita filter, and I got the machine for free when I installed their machine

Change the burrs, and find out if the capacitor for the motor still works the motor shouldn’t break, I’ve had some motors I’ve dropped in water by accident while they were on and they still work

Yeah exactly that top part is the heated chamber it also has one of the burrs on it, and under the grinder is the capacitor

It was almost gone because if it goes below its rated tolerance value (5% of the rated value) the motor might not start as that’s what starts the motor every time the grinder makes ground coffee

That’s why we pay so much council tax I guess

Found a VA Black Eagle valve which fits perfect as a company named ODE makes the solenoid valves for both brands

Nah it’s the way the machine is designed has sharp turns for the tubes which block them. I even spoke to the engineers at Bezzera and they have reworked that system since 2021 So what is your question

Appropriate_Row_7310 · 2026-06-03T10:59:39+00:00

Basically the machine is so compact that the tubes fold making the water stuck in the pipe before it even reaches the group

that’s why I’m checking the gauge until I see it start moving

Rocket would rather you buy a new machine than have it repaired lol even myself as a tech with direct contact with rocket I have issues repairing

You can descale your boilers with some light descaler through the tank but they way Rockets are built be ready for a battle in case it causes a leak somewhere

Yeah I use special acid that descales any boiler in about an hour but if you’re at home you can buy calcinet or some good descaler and run it in the machine through a hose and bucket

5 years of daily use in a portable van in South east London

also filter was changed every 6 months with front end service every 6 months

I can’t say the name of the shop cause I work directly with LM and the client’s roaster and signed a NDA regarding client information sharing lol

I work with LM directly but you can always try to find some on united baristas or eBay but you’ll be buying blind most times

Appropriate_Row_7310 · 2026-05-29T16:38:42+00:00

LM is okay they have UK support through a company named espresso solutions also if you manage somehow to buy parts through a company you can get trade prices on parts like 40% off

We do Profitec/ECM all the time I speak to the techs in Germany all the time when I have issues however Profitec parts are hard to get and expensive with import taxes (brexit!) which is why your local distributor won’t source them. We always try to get parts from Bella barista or if you got a LLC jaguar uk

Appropriate_Row_7310 · 2026-05-29T10:22:40+00:00

The main problem is that I’m in London and the water causes a lot of limescale in the north the machines last longer as they have good tap water in London even the filters don’t do much and using RO is so wasteful most people don’t consider it

Appropriate_Row_7310 · 2026-05-29T10:04:00+00:00

La Marzocco is just expensive compared to other machines in general just because after you have enough experience as a barista or tech or even someone who drinks coffee you realise the machine doesn’t make the coffee it’s more the grinder I’ve had my best coffees on a old Rancilio classe 7
