Poured water in my delonghi magnifica beans hopper.

I think my machine is a little older than this, but its a Delonghi Magnifica. Husband accidentally poured water where the beans go (through the burr grinder). Now it doesn't work. The grinder is spinning, but beans arent going through. Emptied the hopper, can see the burrs moving, but it won't grind beans.

Have you tried grinding a few cups of uncooked rice through the mechanism to see if this will shift the dried on coffee grounds. It worked for a friend of mine after several attempts

Don't feel too bad, happens all the time. The grounds have dried to concrete and blocked up the grinder. If you or your husband are intrepid you might try removing the grinder assembly and chiseling it all out but usually a replacement grinder assembly is required to restore good performance. Low level of difficulty to replace.

SOURCE: Coffee machine Delonghi Magnifica grinding function not working

There are two reasons for this usually. Either the grinder is jammed or the grinding wheel or wheels have broken. Your machine needs to go to a repair shop to be looked at.

SOURCE: descaling a delonghi magnifica ESAm04

I had this problem too. The instruction manual says to turn the steam knob only half way counter-clockwise after pressing the button for 5 seconds, but you need to turn it ALL the way to have the procedure start (at least, that was the solution with my machine). Good luck!

SOURCE: My Delonghi Magnifica (manual not digital) won't

Delonghi Magnifica comes up with waste tray full light when there is nothing in the tray. It doesn't make coffee, the grinder is rotating and appears to be clear. Could there be a blockage below the grinder, if so how do I access it.

Delonghi magnifica evo never stops grinding coffee beans

Ground coffee beans can squirrel their way into hard to reach places in a grinder and cause problems. I think it is clogged with grounds. Remove the beans. Reseat the burr (grinder). Reset the adjustment ring to 3. Lock itin place with the silver handle. Reinstall the hopper and beans. Here is a tutorial on more advanced cleaning and maintenance: You can skip the ad.

Delonghi magnifica S is making clicking noise when grinding beans and error symbol appears when coffee should be poured. On turning off and on it no longer does the rinse cycle as well

My Delonghi Magnifica was making a ratcheting /clicking noise when it should have been grinding. No coffee grind coming to diffuser, display showed '' Add more Beans''. I used vacuum cleaner to suck up the residual beans from the hopper and used wooden skewer to poke out any beans at top of the grinder. Did not solve. I then removed the protective hood over the inlet to grinder and used vacuum cleaner to remove all grind. With inspection light I could see a foreign object stuck in the grind. It was stuck fast. Using pointed noise pliers I was able to rotate the inner grinder in the reverse direction which released the object upwards and then gripped by PN pliers. Turned out it was a piece of plastic from the bean hopper lid which had broken off near to the front hinge. All working again and we're getting our fix nia.... AM McCooey

Accidentally put water in the Bean Bin

Husband says not good. If you're lucky the water will just drip away, but it's likely that the water has gotten into the grinder mechanism. It could get all gummed up, but worse still, it could get into the motor and short the motor out.

It's very fiddly to undo. You could leave out in the sun to dry out with the doors open, but he recommends (for safety reasons) to take the unit to a De'Longhi Service Center.
