Sunbeam Cafe Series Espresso EM7000 Questions & Answers (page 4 of 9)

Hi there, my Sunbeam Cafe Series Espresso machine is only a couple of months old and the pressure gauge is not working when ever I extract a shot of coffee. I have tried different grinds of coffee and even different tamper pressures as well and it doesn’t seem to resolve it. Not sure what to do next.

Hi our steam pump starting dripping at the ball joint a few weeks ago and now has no pressure build up hence no steam. This is 2 years old. Any help?
Thanks Sally

The middle of my group head has fallen out. How do i fix it?

Hi my coffee machine has been making a buzzing noise for few days what could it be please?

With my 10mth old the hot water control knob has fallen off how do I refit that knob?

The rescaling cycle in our EM 7000 doesn’t work. I follow the instructions in the manual an press th 1 cup button after the 4 beeps but water then continually runs through the group head without any pauses. The instructions say to leave the steam wand turned on during de scaling but all this does is to continually blast steam out from the wand?

Our EM7000 has a continuous stream of water running into the drip tray from the overflow at the left rear of the drip tray. It happens whenever we choose the 1 or 2 cup function, seems to be fine when steaming. Any ideas what would cause this excessive overflow into the drip tray?

Hi
There seems to be a problem with the pressure on my my machine when I press the single or double shot, it brings out clear water then it brings out very light coffee (more like water with a colour trail of coffee).. the single shot button only lasts a 2 seconds..

When i push either single or two shot coffee button water comes out the water wand, nothing comes out the group head area, any help appreciated.

Hi, I have a repeating issue when I run the cleaning cycle with the tablet in the group head. Dirty water leaks out from underneath the machine and the container I place under the group head to catch the water from the cleaning cycle hardly fills, maybe 1cm deep max. What's happening here please!

Have an EM7000 machine and for some reason the cleaning cycle won't start. It turns on to make coffee so its not a power issue - any ideas?

Hi. We've had our machine for a few years now, and its been working beautifully, however, yesterday when making a coffee, the double filter basket 'stuck' to the shower screen and we can't get it unstuck. Any ideas as to why this happened and importantly, how we fix it?

does the milk steamer work well?

Hi, we have had our EM7000 (in NZ) for nearly 2 months. Initially i couldnt get any consistent pressure - either too high or too low. Now for the last 2 weeks we have no pressure at all - which makes for terrible coffee :-( Has anyone else experienced this? Am i doing something wrong or is it a fault with the machine. We loved the previous model which we had for 3 years but right now i am regretting replacing it with the EM7000. Help anyone?

The pressure gauge is moving to high and I am only getting a few mls of coffee. I've descaled and can only use the machine on manual mode. Any ideas?

I have my EM7000 now for two years.For some reason it has started spitting out water and steam at the group head for no reason.
Any ideas?

We have one of these machines after replacing it from the brilliant previous Em6900. This had a double floor, but the new Em7000 doesn’t. We have two baristas in the house and we are used to making gear coffee but it’s very hard to get a without the double floor. Any suggestions?

Hi. Had my EM7000 for a couple of months. Makes great coffee (once I refined the grind and tamping). However the 'puck' is sticking to the 'shower head' when I remove the basket. I am leaving about 5mm below the top of the basket after tamping. The basket handle moves well past the middle point of the machine, so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. Any advice would be appreciated.

Does anyone know what the problem is when your Fill Tank light wont go out?

Hi I have a Sunbeam EM 7000 . I have had it for three years now. In September last year it started having problems where it would suddenly not express the coffee when the group handle is fitted. The first time I thought maybe the filters might be blocked and I cleaned everything just to make sure. So I took it back thinking it was still under warranty. No with 12 month product warranty and 2 year Concierge warranty. No Concierge warranty started at time of purchase. So it was sent to a repairer. It did the problem but then not again so they said if it causes any more problems bring it back. So a few months later it happened again So after being told yes it is covered then no it is covered back to repairs again. Still no solution. So home again and immediately back again. Does anyone know what would be the problem as I just want to make coffee and this is VERY Frustrating.
