We had excactly the same problem a couple of times recently with a lot of troubleshooting,like adjsusting grinder, reseting the to factory settings, and many more and we end up that it was a problem with pcb control board which lost the preset timing of grinding thus the coffee grinding where about 3-4 sec and the correct one shold be about 8-9 sec. We have here one side which have the control board for your reference.
Yes the thin coffee dregs is the same problem , less grinding time mean less grounded coffee, thus thing dregs.
All will solved with the new control board which will bring back the correct grinding times.
What control board did you have replaced? The front one with the buttons or the power board in the back? Having the same problem but I replaced the front board with the buttons and still have the same issue.
Thank you for the suggestion. I have exact same problem and will be replacing the control board.

Hai risolto poi? perch? ho lo stesso problema
This worked for me: turn coffee knob to max and water to min, turn coarsness to max, then make 15-20 coffees right one after another. After few coffees youll see that grinding time is getting longer. I managed to prolonge from 5 sec to 12sec. I find this solution on some German site and I dont know how or why is this working, but it is. I use to change grinders, control boards, power boards and nothing works but this.
This is the result:

I tried to brew 20 shots this way. The grind time barely moved from about 3.5 seconds to 4.3. It's a huge waste of coffee and time with no guarantee on results.

Are you adding too much coffee beans at one time.if yes then this can stop the grinder if beans gets stuck.Or the other possibility is grinder container is already got clogged beans in it, that needs to be cleaned.So first try cleaning the grinder section complete and see if that helps.If not, then its quite possible that grinder motor which spins the grinding blade.That motor is got weak , so it runs for short period and then stops working.The motor needs to be checked and replaced.------
Getting this checked will help.Thanks.Helpmech.
Hello there,
My dear friend, have you treid cleaning the machine. If it has worked for a while and have not been cleaned. Some bean might be stuck in some area and that way it will always grind short.
Clean up is simple with the decalcification auto program, the machine will tell you when it needs cleaning. The removable drip tray helps you keep the cup area clean. The removable water container can be filled and cleaned. The used coffee grounds are can easily be removed from the 7 ounce bean container. The silver machine is easy to wipe clean and the small footprint help it fit into most every kitchen.
After cleaning, try to use the machine once again. Then you try to troubleshoot it once in a while. In order for you to have it in good shape.
Hope this helped.
Goodluck

I had done all these things - it is not a descaling problem
Another clue could be that the used grind discs seem to be half the original thickness
did you also have the issue of thin used coffe discs and did control panel fix it
The comment made on the third try sounds as though the person has homed in the problem
