I own a Saeco Incanto Deluxe. It employs the ceramic grinder that has worked flawlessly for 3-4 years. One day it stopped and "Grinder Blocked" appeared. I removed the entire grinder unit, cleaned it thoroughly and calibrated the grinder. This did not fix the problem. After many similar attempts, I found the entire grinder assembly (motor, grinder etc.) online for $149.00. Install of the new assembly took me five minutes and it works perfectly. Please note that the ceramic grinding blades (there are two round ones that must be aligned corrrectly) cost $40 a piece (same site where I found the entire assembly for $149). My suggestion--save yourself the agony and replace the assembly if cleaning and calibration fails.

2 things can send this message.
either the motor is gone or the sensor in the grinder is not registering.

    I'm having the same problem on my gaggia titanium. Can you tell me where this grinder sensor is? I've looked at the parts list and diagrams and can find no such part. I would love to find this if it exists. Please tell us!

Coffee beans out of message

HI
I hate to tell you this but your grinder is bad. The sensor in the grinder is messed up, and thinks its done grinding after 3 seconds. The grinder will have to be replaced. Sorry

Grinder Blocked said on screen. Any Quick fixes?

This has happened to me twice. Usually caused by a trapped bean in the grinder. Here is how I fixed it. It is easy.

Inside the plastic bean hopper is a screw located in the bottom. Remove it and lift off the hopper. Have someone help you as you turn the machine upside down to remove all the beans. Use a tooth pick or a wooden skewer to pick out any beans lodged inside the grinder housing. Once completed, return the unit to its upright position.

Look inside the hopper and locate the grinder stem which is gold colored. On top of the stem is a hex bolt. Take a hex wrench with a 7/16 hex socket, connect it to the grinder hex bolt and turn it "counter clockwise" about half way which is the same direction the grinder turns. Add some beans and see if it works. If not, turn the hex bot "clockwise" a half to a full turn. Add beans and check.

This helps move the grinder out of its "stuck" position.

Looking for a way to unjam my grinder

Hi,

If you look at the grinder parts you will see a little red mark, take the parts you lift off the grinder and put it back, turn it clockwise to the red mark is align. You have to press the adjustment pin to turn the grinder parts.

Have a nice day

Stuck grinder

Hi,

make sure you not get any damp into the grinder. If you have damp in the grinder then it do not grind the beans.
