Title: VMC 27 Counter Top style Pepsi Machine Questions Post by: georgescustompaint on November 23, 2013, 02:47:06 pm Hi guys,
A few questions about my VMC 27 counter top Pepsi machine.... Does anyone have one ? I went to fill it with the small coke bottles and it appears they are too short, I am guessing it is made to vend long necks ? I might try to shim the rear for the little bottles to work. Also I replaced the fan motor, (what a fun job lol) and it's working well, but I don't think I would want to leave this machine in my rec room running, as I find it kinda noisy as the fan is a double blade and never turns off. Thanks Shane. Title: Re: VMC 27 Counter Top style Pepsi Machine Questions Post by: MoonDawg on November 23, 2013, 03:17:46 pm If the small Coke bottles don't work..........try Labbat Blue.

I own a Coke VMC27 tabletop. It was actually the first machine that I bought (paid $15 for it in 1972). I use to load it with Cokes and DP and never had an issue - never been a Pepsi guy so can't verify or deny vending issues. Why won't they vend?
What is the depth of the tub on a Pepsi 27? I can measure mine and see if there is any difference for you. If the small Coke bottles don't work..........try Labbat Blue. or HeinekenTitle: Re: VMC 27 Counter Top style Pepsi Machine Questions Post by: Marvin on November 23, 2013, 06:38:52 pm I loaded mine a few weeks ago, The kids wanted to see it work.
I loaded it and the bottles were acting crazy. Like they were to short. I then looked and saw I was putting the bottles in the wrong way. Turned them around and they vended perfect.

Not sure if this subject is related to a VMC 33, where a baffle in the rear can be removed to vend longneck bottles. Title: Re: VMC 27 Counter Top style Pepsi Machine Questions Post by: collecture on November 24, 2013, 12:05:04 pm The tub is deeper on the Pepsi version. A tabletop, at least a Coke tabletop, does not have a baffle like the upright 27 or 33.Not sure if this subject is related to a VMC 33, where a baffle in the rear can be removed to vend longneck bottles.

So I measured the insides, it measures 8 3/4 inches from the back wall of the inner cabinet to the edge of the rack. No baffle inside mine either. I peeked inside my VMC 33 and 27 Dual, and they both had the baffle. I didn't realize the Pepsi Machines where deeper. You learn something everyday! LOL Glen, I got excited for min, as I thought beer bottles would fit, but our Canadian Bottles are a little too wide... I think American Bottles would fit though. THE GOOD NEWS..... I found Pepsi Bottles that fit PERFECT. They where at the grocery store and even on sale lol. $3.99 Canadian for 4. (Good thing I don't have to fill a 110) lol below is a pic of the bottle.
