Good evening,
my grandmother is in possession of a Melitta Caffeo solo. Now she has poured water into the bean container, so there is now also water in the grinder.
A coffee preparation is no longer possible. Only the machine indicates that the coffee beans are to be refilled.
Now I have dared to repair the machine myself and disassembled it completely. I also completely dismantled the grinder and cleaned it from the wet coffee residues.
Now I assumed that everything works again, but after the complete assembly and a test run I have to find out that still no coffee is prepared. I once looked at the preparation process at "open" machine and had to find out that little, until no coffee at all is ground and a smelly smell is perceptible.
I now strongly assume that the grinder is over.

My question now is whether it makes sense to buy a new grinder. Because all other functions of the coffee machine are still intact, unfortunately only no coffee is ground, which is why they acknowledge this with "Please fill in beans".

I would like to save myself the costs for a cost estimate and wage costs by installing a grinder myself.
How the machine can be opened and how the disassembly/assembly works I know now.

I would be very happy about an answer.

Mfg

Hello,

if anything else goes I would install a "new" mill
. The cost of parts is between 50 and
85 Euro.

I have already found a grinder: grinder 58,30€ (+shipping)
The price seems to be okay then, too, or?

I only have to compare the descriptions of the motor from the old grinder with the new one once again. Although it also says that this grinder should also be suitable for the Caffeo Solo.

Many thanks already
