My Jura S9's grinding unit clogged (due to Pete's coffee beans that were apparently too gooey. Seems like this shouldn't be so easy to do, BTW)
I've cleaned the grinder out with a brush, vaccuum and lastly with compressed air. The unit grinds about 1/3 of what it should now, and produces wet grinds in the tray.
The manual feed of ground coffee works fine, so all else seems OK.
Thanks in advance!
Use the TABLET CLEANING. please refer to this manual here on page 24 if you don't have one.

Hi.. C Cestaro...!
Since you have already clean the grinder, Therefore, The best way is to get it serviced from a service station.....
If you can manual feed them OK, then it seems you should be able to use
the grinder. I have never heard of coffee beans being too gooey? But if the grinder had a gasket on it, make sure that was reinstalled properly. If
it had one that was misplaced when the grinder was removed this could even be why Pete's beans failed to begin with.
I would also try and clean the grinder again and make sure that it is completely dry before reinstalling it, check the seals around the grinder and the feeder and make sure that you have not bent or twisted anything.
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.

Cleaning the unit didn't help. Nor did turning it with the key included in the welcome kit.
Now it's back to not taking in any beans when grinding. Elsewhere on this site there is a post about removing the top part of the unit to clean the grinder knives - will this help and can it be put back and aligned easily ?
Cleaning the unit didn't accomplish anything. Now in fact it isn't drawing any beans into the unit - back to square 1.
Thanks. The beans were too wet causing the clogging. The seals are all in place as originally installed...the grinder apparently still isn't taking beans down into it, or is clogged as very little coffee gets into the press area.
Thanks, but I've only cleaned it from above. Will need to disassemble the grinder itself as suggested by someone here who appears to really know this type of appliance.
