C1500 coffe comes out the dump drawer - Jura Capresso C1500 Espresso & Coffee Maker

hi , sounds like the dump valve solenoid has failed or the valve on the base of the brewer has failed probably stuck,.which is the more likely culprit. let me know if you require more in depth help.
its not a problem that can be resolved by a novice.

Hello Saaddition,

I understand that your coffee maker is not producing coffee. However, it is operating normal in all other respects. This is usually a common problem when the machine needs to be descaled. You may also need to clean the brew unit. Here is the link to the manual for you Saeco Incanto Rondo C class coffee machine it give you all of the directions to clean and descale.

One other question did you remove the dregs drawer with the machine off. If you did you will need to do cleaning to reset the machine as removing the dregs drawer with the machine off will not allow it to brew coffee.

Thank you for choosing FixYa.com

Hi

There is a lever at the top of the door on the right side. Pull the lever back 1 notch from the plus (+) . You are dumping too much coffee in the brew unit and it can not compress it, so it dumps it. Never push the lever all the way or it can cause this overcharge. Its fine if the brew group is clean but when you make coffee there is always a residue left and this is what causes the overcharge. The lever in on or behind the door, NOT under the bean hopper!
Also if the grind is too coarse (french press) this can also do this, and that means that the grinder has seperated. New grinder.

Which red light is on? It may be that youa re emptying the dreg drawer with the power off. When you do this it doesn't reset the counter that tunrs that light on

Give the brew unit a good wash,then lube all the moving parts with food grade grease.
If you are able dismantle the brew unit and wash in warm soapy water,this removes coffee and any old lubricant.

Hi
Dredge drawer is the big box on the bottom right. That is where the grounds are dumped. Remove the drip tray and pull the drawer out about half way. Push it back in with 1 finger on the right side of the drawer. That should clear the message. If it comes back on when you put in the drip tray, there is a section of the drip tray that can be removed to stop that. On the right side of the drip tray is a notch. Inside that notch is a thin piece of plastic. It curls up on the right side. Cut out the piece that curls up (just the piece that curls, about an inch). When you push in the drip tray that curl lifts the dredge drawer and knocks it out of position.
When you want to empty the grounds because it says to in the menu, REMEMBER TO LEAVE THE MACHINE ON when you remove the drawer. The machine is a counter and when it reaches the magic number for that machine the message comes on. If the machine is turned off when you pull the drawer out, the machine doesn’t know this and the message will be there when you turn the machine back on. Also remember to leave the drawer out for at least 15 seconds or a little longer so the machine thinks you actually dumped the grounds

Remove the brew unit and check the shower screen in the unit. Clean shower, then adjust the grind about 2 numbers coarser and tyr again.

Hi
You have 2 knobs in the bean hopper. The small one is set to the most positive. Turn it back 1 click from the plus and that should take care of your problem. When you have a clean brew unit it will make the first coffee but a little coffee is left in the brew unit and when it tries to make the second coffee a full charge and the little that was left cause an over charge, and dumps the coffee without making anything.

Clean the ball and valve assembly located in the Brew Group. It ocassionally gets "dirty" and needs cleaning. Be careful you don't lose the glass ball which is very small. Use a q-tip or small wire for cleaning the tubular area.
