Jura Impressa s9. Why does it display a fill bean error?

Ah the Subaru Impressa with S9 engine. :>D

Not quite "says it all" Bryan. So.....
Question edited to add the maker and 'what it is', a Coffee Maker.
Question moved from Cars and Trucks to Jura Impressa category. When you add a maker, you are offered the correct category, 'Impressa' gives you generic Cars and Trucks.

You have a 'Replace Now' message that no one else has!

However, try this. Remove the Grounds Bin. Disconnect from the power. Replace the bin, reconnect power.

This is your manual

Press CTRL+F, and type 'replace' and press enter. There are 16 mentions. I think it refers to the grounds bin being not fully placed. I have come across this many times, there is a small infra-red sensor or a proximity sensor.

Juani, can you use ground coffee in your machine. Then go and find the grinder and put some coffee beans in and grind them.
while enjoying your coffee read the user manual for the coffee machine and find out what the trouble is. If you can't find the manual, you can get it here Free User Manuals and Owners Guides ManualsOnline com

Could be bad grinder or no 12v. The display/control runs on 5v and there is a transformer (supplying 5/12vdc) where the a/c cord comes in. Mine was blown from lightening.
Try these guys... they have parts, trouble shooting and videos on youtube.

Sometimes certain beans do not move freely throughout the grinder. Oily beans, which is not necessarily a bad thing, do not fall into the grinder easily and tend to stick. It is necessary to sometimes to just poke or stir the beans around with your finger to make sure they fall into the grinder. For a safety measure do this while your machine is turned off.

Usually water in the grounds container is caused by the coffee solenoid valve return side being blocked from dry coffee. Using cleaning tubelets to clean the coffee grounds out. If that doesn't work then you should remove the solenoid and clean it out with warm water. If that still doesn't rid you of the wet grinds you should have a certified repair tech take a look at it. You may end up having to replace the solenoid but that should be verified by a tech before you spend the money.

Same thing happening to me right now. I think this has something to do with having used flavored beans (which I was warned not to do). Supposedly they gum up the machine.

Hi
Oily beans (shiny) can some times stick together after grinding with a fine setting. Try opening the grinder setting to the very coarsest setting and see if it will clear the passage. If you have pushed the brew button an lot of times you may have packed the grounds in the passage which will have to cleaned manually.
Once you have the grinder working again, open it to the coarsest setting to clean the burrs. 1 time is enough. To turn the grind setting back down to your setting make sure that the grinder is running at that time. You can open to a coarse setting any time but it has to be running to finer.

Seems Problem with the bean sensor. you need to get the same replaced. there are no setting that can be done manually for bean sensor.

A Jura Engineer can check the Bean sensor with his computer system and confirm if the bean sensor is faulty.

Your grinder is probably clogged with fine powder. Set the grinder adjustment to a coarser grist, and see if this pushes out packed coffee from the grinder. Open the lid for preground coffee and clean out the outlet from the grinder.

It is the tamper in the brew unit that feels if there`s enough coffee before brewing. If this gets to far down during tamping, it will send a message to the mainboard that there`s not enough coffee, and the message Fill Beans will appear.

You need to open the grinder, it`s probably packed with old fine powdered coffee that blocks the outlet. Clean this out and try again. Since it works normal when you use pre-ground coffee, there shouldn`t be any problems with any other parts.

Let me know if you want a description for have to open and clean the grinder.

Good luck!
