General Espresso Machine Notes/Warnings:

The mode should not matter. Also, if you did not purchase OEM burrs, the replacement burrs may have been designed for a different rotation.
Sorry, this seems like a grinder issue.
First, the blind filter test indicating a 13 bar pressure means the pump is working properly.
Second, the gauge on the group head indicates the resistance created by your puck. The flow control normally allows control up to the amount created by the resistance in the puck in the filter basket. Hence, there is not enough resistance created by the coffee puck.
To our knowledge, this flow control works on all VBM E61 group-heads since 2005, when we started importing VBM..
Thank you for following our advice via email how to resolve this issue with a proper descaling. We are glad it works now.
So far to date, we have not replaced any. However, one VBM dual profiler ddual boiler espresso machine customer had this issue pop up. They descaled the machine and the issue disappeared. So, please check your water. If the coffee boiler transducer, a descaling through the coffee boiler should be performed. If the steam boiler, then the part (can be more than one version) needs to be removed and inside descaled manually as the descaling solution in the boiler will not get up as high as the pipe for the transducer.
Dual boiler descaling instructions are on our web site.
Please note a design choice is not always a defect. For instance, we do sell a dual boiler machine that has water pre-heated through the steam boiler (which must remain powered on) to offer enhanced coffee boiler temperature stability.
In other words, a machine will react differently in the different scenarios: coffee boiler powered on only OR bother boilers powered on.
In 2022, it was decided to allow the user to turn off the steam boiler.
As our web site states, manufacturers make changes without any notification. This includes, and is not limited to, all European manufacturers as well as Asian manufacturers (i.e. China) and can be changes as little as a small thermostat, safety thermostat or even wiring.
The recommended water softener is the Oscar150.
The 2 hole tip for the VBM Dual Profilers, VBM Super Digital, VBM Digital Electronic, and the VBM Junior Digital can be ordered on this web page.
The entire grouphead assembly needs to be changed as the E61 grouphead is designed a little differently on the inside. And, the software would need to be reset for the manual lever version.
The Super Digital has a lever on the right side of the E61 grouphead. When the lever is lift up to the 90 degree, horizontal position, there is a switch behind the lever that activates the pump. At the same time, the valves in the grouphead open and close to allow water to extract the espresso. When the lever is brought fully down to the vertical position, the pump stops and the manual valve opens to allow the pressure in the filter basket be relieved to the drip tray via the large spout on the bottom of the grouphead. When the pressure is relieved, the portafilter can be immediately, cleaned, and removed for the next espresso extraction. This is known as semi-automatic dosing.
The importance on using the Super Digital is that the lever is brought down in alignment with the pump pressure profiling, if enabled to fluctuate pump pressure, end time. In other words, the lever should be brought down at the end of the pump pressure programming. If the pump pressure is kept steady at a certain bar pump pressure, like manual mode, then it is not as important.
In the Super Electronic, the manual valve for the pressure in the filter basket is replaced with an electrical solenoid valve.The lever and switch are removed as the machines electronics are controlled by the brain unit that starts and stops the espresso extraction. The addition of a flow meter measures the water for the start and stop action. This is known as full automatic dosing.
The importance of the Super Electronic is that the programming of the pump pressure profiling has an end time of the seconds programmed to stop the pump. For example, one does not want to have the pump pressure profiling end in 35 seconds, but the dosage time of water is programmed for 40 seconds.
We hope these features make sense.
