La Cimbali in Palo Alto

La Cimbali coffee equipment in Palo Alto.

We include pickup in Palo Alto, bench diagnosis, and return. Diagnostics can take up to a week; most repairs run 3–4 weeks. That is exactly why we recommend preventive maintenance: a maintained machine does not sit in a repair queue for a month.

We service La Cimbali machines throughout Palo Alto as an independent shop and carry the common wear parts so most repairs involve parts we usually stock.

The $150 deposit includes pickup, bench diagnosis, and return and is not credited toward repair. Extra bench time is $150 per hour. Diagnostics can take up to a week; most repairs run 3–4 weeks. That is exactly why we recommend preventive maintenance: a maintained machine does not sit in a repair queue for a month.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

  • Group solenoid and gasket wear. Leaking groups and inconsistent shots usually trace to a worn gasket or a sticking solenoid valve. We replace both and reset extraction.
  • Steam boiler pressure faults. Weak steam pressure points to the pressurestat or a scaled boiler. We test and clear it rather than replacing the whole unit.
  • Volumetric control board issues. When programmed pours drift, the dosing board or flow sensor is usually to blame. We diagnose the electronics before assuming mechanical failure.

Honest repair timing

A repair queue is easier to avoid than to rush.

We pick up the machine in Palo Alto, diagnose it on the bench, and return it. Pickup and return are included, and you get the repair quote after diagnosis.
