Incanto Sirius - grinds but cannot hear coffee getting ground

i've refurbished 3 of these just last month. this is a pain to fix when it happens imho. get your newelectronx 102 and grab the oval screwdriver. we need to get our hands dirty.
pull out the brew group and you should see a spring directly above the door. somewhere above the brew group funnel. use a paper clip or reach a flat head for the tool kit in there and remove coffee ground that is causing this problem. unjam that micro switch sensor and viola your this message should disappear.

try to make preground coffee without powder. If the water don't come out -may be you have to change the pump.

the coffee is too fine.Fix it from coffee beans section

The grind might be too fine or the grind chamber is blocked, remove brew unit and check the door covering the grind chute to make sure it is clear, or adjust towards coarse about 2 numbers.

I own a Saeco Incanto Deluxe. It employs the ceramic grinder that has worked flawlessly for 3-4 years. One day it stopped and "Grinder Blocked" appeared. I removed the entire grinder unit, cleaned it thoroughly and calibrated the grinder. This did not fix the problem. After many similar attempts, I found the entire grinder assembly (motor, grinder etc.) online for $149.00. Install of the new assembly took me five minutes and it works perfectly. Please note that the ceramic grinding blades (there are two round ones that must be aligned corrrectly) cost $40 a piece (same site where I found the entire assembly for $149). My suggestion--save yourself the agony and replace the assembly if cleaning and calibration fails.

Adjust the grind atleast 2 numbers coarser.

Hi,

I think you have pre-brewing on your machine, if you have a Sirius then you have these settings in the menu under coffee settings.

I don´t think this is on Saeco Easy, only if you will make two cup of coffee, then the machine will pre-grind the beans for the second cup.

Hi,

When you power on the machine, can you hear the machine do the self test?

is there a crack sound when the brewing unit is in work?

Hi,

It can be the touch board or the "water turbine" in the machine

Thank you thank you!!! This problem has been irking us for months! The people in our company adore the coffee the Saeco Incanto Sirius makes so we just lived with the leak. The fix was such a simple thing, heh.

I used a cable tie to clean out the hole. The hole is very small - a design mistake, I'd say - and when I unclogged it I could see the cable tie coming out and coffee sludge flowing into the drip tray.
