how tight is the coffee packed in the dripper, the flow rate is determine by how tight the coffee is, thats why you always see the barista press the coffee against the disk of the grinder dispenser in a coffee store

Yes Bunn will send you a repair kit free of charge. Just apply a bead of silicon below the rubber gasket before you tighten it down and it will solve the problem.

SOURCE: Weak coffee and pale crema.

If you get weak coffee from espresso machines:

Check water temp, if water temp is insufficient , most common is scale heating element , faulty element, faulty thermostat.
Check if water is dripping right at the center of the filter, if it is dripping on one side because the orifice is clogged, that can result in weak coffee.
Coffee blend not well distributed on filter basket.

On Espresso machines:

Check water temp, same as filter coffee machines (thermostat element, scale on heating chamber).
Ensure that coffee is filled correctly in the filter cup (fill at level), and well pressed.
Ensure that the coffee mixture that you are using is not too coarse, buy the apposite one for espresso.
Ensure that you are not leaving the machine brewing for a time that is too long, and Italian coffee cup is very small, approximately one regular shot.

On the hob moka pots (espresso, Moka and Bialetti type):

This are the trickiest ones, you need art and practice to get a good espresso with a Moka, but when you learn, the result is better than what you may get with an home electrical espresso maker.
The frame on the hob must be not too strong, and the mixture coarse but well pressed, with water at level tag, or you will get a weak coffee.
On Mokas a good strategy is keeping hob at minimum, and turning up the flame at top when coffee starts coming out.


Note: insufficient pressure and clogged lines on electric machines never give you a weak coffee, exactly the opposite.
Not pressed mixture always gives weak coffee, but too much pressed mixture may give you coffee with bad taste.

My Mazzer Kony will not operate. The last time I used it was to create my own in house blend of coffee. It was used consistently over a prolonged period of time. Could I have burnt out the motor? The

it is a home type operation and you used it for an industrial application
there is every possibility that the motor has burnt
get to the motor and smell it . you will know it it is burnt by the smell
when doing what you have tried to achieve , small amounts --like a hand full at a time-- will still give you the blend you want without placing the grinder in a bad situation
when you have the blend , go to a coffee blender shop with the beans in different bags and have them use the industrial blender to mix as per your bags blend mixes

Bunn G9 ground coffee is spraying outwards instead of down. How do I fix this?

Bunn G9 Retail grinder usually has a large "Chaff" plate located inside the top portion of the discharge port. There is usually a handle connected to this plate to allow the last bit of grounds to fall out of the chute. It looks like a 'trap door' that swings open and close. You will need to replace it if it's missing.
* Some places use a bag clip to attach a coffee bag to the chute so all the grounds can drop into the bag. This clip (with a small metal chain attached) also helps with the static electricity.

While grinding heard noise as if a foreign object was in the grinder. The grinder started smoking. Unplugged grinder. Any suggestions on repair?

You will have to dismantle the grinder, removing the 2 bolts at front, then working your way back to the grind chamber, You can find the diagrams for the machine on bunn.com

My Bunn Grinder sounds like it is jammed. I have power but no mov

First turn grinder to coarse setting and try grinding some white rice through it, that will clean out the coffee oils, if that does not work then the you will have to open the grinder and clean out the burr chamber and the spout for the grounds.
