Expobar EB61 ? Can be Plumbed In?

[rmchenry]

Hi,

I have recently bought this above machine and chose the non-plumbed in model as a kitchen upgrade was 2 - 3 years into the future.
Circumstances change and the kitchen renovation will be soon allowing a machine to be plumbed in.
Is there any sort of modification available to convert a machine such as mine to be plumbed in?
Thanks in advance.

Yes- it can be done.

The plumb upgrade requires the installation of a few bits including a rotary pump and motor. You do lose the tank on this machine, so once plumbed, it's for good.

It will cost though. I think the importer charges about $600.

As competent tech should also be able to do this- but don't let a dodgy one plumb a the original vibe pump. It needs to be replaced to do the job right.

If you're in Melbourne, you could to a whole lot worse than to contact our resident sponsor Rick Bond aka The Coffee Machinist

Good luck with the upgrade.
