Possible Causes
Beans bridging in the hopper, oily beans sticking to walls, grinder inlet blocked by a foreign object, grinder adjustment too fine causing a stall.
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
User-level steps:
- Stir the beans in the hopper gently with a dry utensil to break any bridges.
- Use drier, less oily beans to improve flow.
- Adjust the grind one step coarser and test.
- Empty the hopper and vacuum out the grinder inlet, then remove any foreign objects.
Resolution:
- If the problem persists, inspect the grinder inlet from inside the machine and clear any compacted coffee.
