Why is my F9 dispensing coffee directly into the grounds container instead of out the spouts?

Looking into machine with tray assembly removed, using flashlight. I can see an inch or two of small black tube-like plastic or rubber hanging down near the flat round disc piece above the tray assembly.

From your description I would say a broken O ring seal in the brewing chamber. You will need to remove the brewing unit and clean, replace seals and lubricate the sliding guides.

    As soon as I manipulated the black dangling piece, it fell off completely and does appear to be a broken O ring seal! Will update on progress as repair progresses. I'm so impressed by getting such a prompt and knowledgeable (and evidently accurate) reply! Thanks to Mr. Keen! Wow!

    Update: while your answer is correct, my husband decided it would be worth replacing the entire brew unit, since very little time had passed since his last repair mission for this machine. We received the replacement unit and it seemed to fit well. However, when we turned on the machine, we heard tortured-sounding metal-on-metal grinding that alerted us immediately that the repair would not succeed. My F9 was 7 to 10 years old, and I used it A LOT. Sadly, we had to let go and set it free. LOVED that thing. I now have an Academia Gaggia, and it is gradually winning me over and restoring my will to live. Thank you so much for your help. Without it, we'd still be working on the disassembled Jura and hating life. Many thanks. Mr. Keen; you know your stuff! Debra

Jura Impressa C9 Grounds container filling with water or Coffee. Grounds floating.

It sounds like there may be a blockage in the brewing unit or the drainage system causing the water and coffee grounds to back up and overflow into the grounds container.
You can try cleaning the brewing unit by removing it from the machine and rinsing it with hot water. Be sure to clean all the nozzles and crevices to ensure there is no blockage.
You should also check the drainage system for any clogs or obstructions, such as coffee grounds or debris. This can be done by removing the drip tray and examining the drainage hole at the bottom of the machine.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to contact a professional for repair or servicing of the machine.

To much water flowing on Curtis 111-s Curtis coffee machine

I had the same problem. I ended up taking the coffee machine apart and found that the reason coffee trickles out around the hot water spout is that the two coffee nozzles were partially plugged. Since I Had parts of the coffee machine apart I was able to clean it easily. It may also be possible to clean the assembly using a pick of some sort and clean out the holes of the two normal coffee spouts. Inside it is just a open cavity so gentle poking around and using some steaming hot water may do the trick.
If you want to take the machine apart you need to do the following: 1) take of the warmer plate on the top - 2 storz screws but an allen key works as well 2) take off the top plate of the machine - another 4 or 5 screws - make sure you empty the beans first otherwise you will have a mess 3) remove one screw from the right hand side of the removable coffee ground tray. Once this screw is removed the front panel is free to swing open except for the pipes connecting the front 4) unclip the steam assembly - there are a couple of plastic catches on the top. this will free the steam assembly from the front panel and also free a pipe connections. The steam dispenser pipe will also come free from the steam assembly. 5) remove the coffee pipes from the up and down sliding coffee dispenser. This is a small whitish color clip with 2 pipes connecting into it. The white clip has a little plastic catch on the top that frees it. The front panel should now swing open freely. 6) remove the sliding coffee dispenser from the front door. There are 4 plastic catches, 2 on either side. the whole front sliding coffee displenser now comes free 7) Take the sliding dispenser apart by release the 4 plastic catches on the front curved planel. 8) Inside the sliding dispenser is a white plastic piece that connected to the piping released in step 5. There is a small plastic catch that needs to be pressed while pulling fairly ******* the plastic piece and bending the whole piece. 9) You will now see the plugged spouts. It goes back together really easily.

Cannot install tray with ground basket installed, after removing. Mechanism is blocking the ground basket when the tray is slid back into the unit after emptying.

Try putting a container under the coffee spouts and pressing the rinse button. This will usually free any coffee grounds that may not have been expelled into the grounds basket from the last time the machine was used. The grounds can get stuck and block the slide path of the grounds basket.

Will not dispense the water into the cup when the button is pushed

I have had this issue. First, check to make sure water tank is filled and correctly in place? Try descaling it; a kit came with coffee maker. (It just removes hard water build up, it may be blocking your water flow.) If that is not the issue, pull the tray where the used pods are dropped -Is it wet? Like the coffee is pouring into this tray rather than in your cup? If so, I have removed round silver plastic piece from around coffee spout,(gentle -do not crack it) then removed and washed the black spout, I even used a toothpick once, to remove the stubborn coffee ground, Once it was cleaned - it worked perfect. If you run water from the faucet into spout it should flow smoothly. I warn you though, not sure what this does to any warranty, but don't mess with my morning coffee! If the POD tray is not wet, I would tell you not that most likely your machine is not clogged by grounds, so you may not want to take snout apart. I hope this helps.

Water not coming out of dispensing area, goes to drip tray instead Water comming out in drip tray instead of regular way

Try this, if the machine has a pregrind door(usually on the top front) then use the button to tell it you are using pre grind coffee, if water comes out the spout this way then the grind on the grinder is too fine, if it goes out the drain then the coffee passage is blocked, remove the brew unit and check/clear tubes, also clean the spouts on the door of the unit.

No coffee will dispenses

I would remove the coffee spout and check the lines into it. The coffee seems to stop when it hits the spout and goes through the by pass instead. Remove the spout(be careful) then run a coffee and see if it works.

Saeco Talea Giro no steam or water from spout

I have the same problem as well, talked to a repair shop and it's definitely a "send in" or warranty repair. I was told it's an o-ring issue. I have no water coming out of the steam wand and it goes into the dispense tray instead.
