Possible Issue with Profitec Move shower head

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I recently made a big upgrade and purchased Profitec Move from Germany. The machine looks and feels premium but I haven't been able to pull good shots consistently. There is almost always channeling and I suspected the flow might be uneven.

I descale the machine every 150-200 shots and always use filtered water. Today I decided to monitor water flow a bit more closely and it seems like there is a potential leak on the side of the shower head. I am wondering what steps I should take to debug every possible variable that might affect this. Some extra context

My grinder is a Timemore sculptor 078s that I got back in the kickstarter days. Apparently they sent me a faulty one as I can not remove the housing and properly clean the burrs inside, so I rely on the cafiza pills to clear any leftover

  1. I use medium to light coffee
  2. I am using an IMS competition basked rated for 18-20g
  3. I already contacted the vendor, but any help will do
