Water will only dispense out of the frother.

I have a Jura Capresso Impressa Z5 and nothing will come through the coffee dispensers. Water only will come out of the frother, no matter which button is pushed and dry ground coffee is deposited into the bin below. we even ran a cleaning cycle but the tablet went dry into the ground bin ... as said above - it appears the water is programed to go only to the froth side

It could be several soutions to this problem. First of all, try to clean the sieve in the brew unit, it may be clogged. Take out the tray, in between the 2 brown "lips" inside you can put your finger up and clean out all the old coffeegrounds stuck up there. Then put everything back in place and run a Rinse machine operation.

If this is not helping, listen out when you start up the machine; You should hear that the valve is turning 3 times, if it doesn`t it can be a problem with this valve not opening in right position. Then all the water would go out in the tray, and not into the brew unit. That maybe can be solved by changing this Multi ceramic valve or the Main Electronic board. Then it`s a job for a sertified Jura technician.

I have had the same problem, and thought it would be something expensive like a solenoid valve.. Turns out it cost nothing to repair, but you will need to dismantle the machine a bit.
There is a plastic pipe behind the front panel, which pivots like a see-saw, and this is what diverts the flow... it is just stuck, and needs cleaning.
If you are capable to do the job, it will cost nothing. otherwise, leave it to someone who knows what they are doing.

    Just looked on the parts fiche and it is not listed, but it clips on the back of the main outlet at the front of the machine.
    I just pulled it of and gave it a wipe..

Water in disposed coffee container jura impressa z5

You may have to clean the unit using cleaning tablets, also there is a flap in the bay (remove the tray and use flashlight, sometimes it cakes up and moisture collects. Final thought is you may need to send it in to Capresso/Jura for service. Mike

Jura-Capresso Impressa Z5 - left coffee spout is clogged the left spout only lets drips of coffee coming through yes we: 1. use only dry beans 2. have the water harshness setting below 10 (we only use...

As the coffee is dispensed, it is normal to have some residue left in the tubing and spouts. It is the reason that the machine will require cleaning on a regular basis using the Jura tablets that dissolves the coffee film. In the case the spouts get clogged, the best approach would be to dismantle the spout assembly. Since it may not always be possible, I found that filling a cup with a coffee cleaning solution such as Puly Cleaner (pulycleaner.co.uk) and having the spout dip in the solution overnight can help. Probably that dissolving a Jura cleaning tablet in a cup of warm water would provide similar cleaning power.
Dismantling the spout is rather straightforward. You start with removing the front logo by rotating it counter-clockwise. Behind it you will find a T15 Torx screw. Removing it will allow removal of spout cover by pulling the top part lightly towards you and then sliding it down below the spouts. Grab the spouts by the sides and wiggle downwards until it comes loose. You can now clean the spouts but will most likely need to soak it. See the video showing removal of the spouts @ youtu.be/9QlRGY0eX3s

I have an Impressa Z5 and it won't **** milk up the tube as either part of the cappucino program or the stand alone milk program. I've checked and nothing in the nozzle is blocked and the plastic pipe...

There are three possible causes to milk not frothing: 1. The frothing tap is blocked: to unblock either use the cappuccino cleaner from Jura, or in 400ml of luke warm water dissolve a teaspoon of vinegar or 1/2 teaspoon of bicarb and run this liquid through the frother until completely finished (or run the cleaning program). The run about 600-800ml of water through the system. While passing the liquid through let the tap rest at froth, and milk setting for 5 seconds at a time. Repeat if necessary. To prevent this in future clean frother after 5 minute of none use. 2. The breathing nozzle is blocked, you can use the Jura Maintenance guide to see how to disassemble and clean and reassemble, but most Juras come with a spare, so replace it. 3. The machine needs to be descaled, since there is lime or scale in it.

All water directed to Frother/ Water nozzle on Impressa C%

The Multivalve seems to be stuck. When you start up the machine you should hear the multivalve turning 2 times, if it`s silent, the valve is defective. This valve is important to guide the water in the right direction. Contact your servicedealer and let them have a look. There`s also a small chance that the electronic board are sending wrong or no signals to the valve
