Saeco Magic no longer grinds beans please help

Hello I am the flui , am 26 and from berlin

Had bought me a Saeco Magic as good as new on Ebay . Has 400 covers and looks brand new.

However, after the first espresso test, a mixture of powder and beans in the bean container came to .

the seller had also left beans in the bean container, a little water was to be found in it.

have cleaned the saeco then and so on everything tried but unfortunately


>in the course of the day after several tests it became even worse, the machine grinds almost never the beans go completely without grinding by .


can you help me? would be very grateful

jo no problem, so the problem is the water in the grinder that has nothing to look for there, you have to disassemble the grinder, is with the magic very simply unscrew the bean hopper, grinder lever then clip off the ring to the left and the middle part rausholen, then you already see the Bescherung.... vacuum with a vacuum cleaner.clean the grinding cone and the grinding ring as well,if you are ready then report again to assemble

ok was no problem the whole,

but I have everything clean and the few half beans I have vacuumed .

always the same problem as before, the liquid looks more like thin urine than coffee, in the grounds container and brew group are half beans and no powder .

is then my complete grinder defective ? shit saeco have the nose full for today

just because a new used Saeco was a small mistake and doesn't work as expected right away doesn't make the whole brand bad.

Maybe the grinder is also roughly adjusted or the upper grinding cone is not inserted correctly!

How is the grinding noise. Rather clattering and frightening, so more like a shredding process?

Hello Fluuu.look at the 2nd page.there Kaffeeplanet has, exactly described (pictures+text) how to dismantle/assemble a grinder.greetings Christian

HAllo all together,

I got a Saeco Magic Combi today and here I had the problem that the grinder did not do anything.
After pressing the contact several times the grinder stayed still.
After disassembling the device I quickly found out what it was.
You take the upper container (where the beans come in there is a screw ) then you take the black grid plate underneath here please set the cup to zero and remember how the grid plate sat ).
Before you suck out here please take out the metal pins 3 pcs (on which springs are fastened and the tiller are only loose inside ).
If the tiller is removed you can suck it out and clean it.
now place the machine on its back (remove the water tank before) and remove the caps from the powder outlet (there are two).
The contact on one of the caps is crucial now, it pushes a thin metal plate down which sits in the machine and so the mill gets the contact it should work with.
This plate tends to have more play with the years, so that the contact at the front of this plate doesn't press down enough anymore.
Now I took a drill in the right size and slightly enlarged the recess of the front contact so that the pin pushes deep enough again (Drill with care ) !!!.
Now everything cleaned and assembled and fertisch :-). impeccable :-)

Hello,

I also have a Saeco Magic Deluxe. My problem was first.
When pressing to make coffee the machine grinded only
short, then the red light (beans all) lit up. Then
machine off and on again. Then grind it again briefly, etc.
until after 5-10 times the cup was filled.
As such, I have once after

and your tips ranged to clean the grinder. Everything reassembled and ... Again the Saeco used several grindings
to spit out a coffee >
But now come on! Next time!
press the Coffee button - the red lamp will show that there are no
beans in it. And this can no longer be remedied by
Off and On switching. What else can I do?
Thanks for helping.

cu OP

actually it's quite simple, your micro switch for the doser is in the bucket.
nu you ask yourself how i come up with it.Nujo, the grinding quantity at saeco is "weighed"that is, it is ground until the micro switch switches and thus tells the processor " to stop well, enough" then it goes on in the text with dosing flap, brewing group, etc. In your case the switch is stuck and the processor immediately gets the message stop grinding, so the microswitch is in the bucket, please change it off and run it again, and by the way there is no hardware reset at Saecos, so turning it on and off is not the solution, I don't know why you always turn it all off and on anyway... but I don't have to understand either

Hello Kaffeeplanet,
many thanks for the great tip.
I also accidentally poured water into the bean container.
I did it exactly as you described it.
The machine grinds again and the day is saved.

Heartfelt thanks >

I also have exactly the phenomenon of Outpack on a MDL ReDesign.

This has nothing to do with the microswitch, because if you often enough
turn the device on and off again (must be, otherwise the operation is
blocked!) and start the coffee brew again sometime, in "small
portions", the powder chamber is filled and by the device regularly under
talk of the knock doser a coffee is prepared.

In order to narrow the thing down further, I have completely
disconnected the mill. Then the error message appears immediately after triggering the
reference. So it looks as if the power consumption of the mill has something
to do with the error.
In some forums you can read that a too high power consumption produces the error. However, a disconnected mill has
no current consumption at all - so even if the current consumption is too low, it may still be too low.
The Saeco maintenance documentation only documents the error "grinding mechanism block" for the devices with display
(without instructions for action).
However, it is probably also available for the displayless devices.

What is the number on the lower right in test mode ? this should be the grinder current.
I would first inspect the motor carbons to see if they are worn out, if there are any left in them, it could be that they are jammed and do not slip, the next culprit is the collector from the motor, if it is burnt only a new motor will help.

Hello,

There is unfortunately no number in the lower right corner, because the MDL has no display.

I have infected the mill of a cannibal Vienna for a test. There seemed to be no problems with
. The plug on the motor is then reversed,
the powder channel exchanged and the other mill installed in the MDL.

Let's see what an endurance test results in...
