Hi there, I have a saeco incanto classic manual machine (had it for 1 week). The machine says it wants more beans (red light flashing) but it is full already. I have tried to empty the bean container twice, but no result. Any advice?

page 31 and 32 have some light indicators and troubleshooting options. It is a very good manual link as well if you need one. SAECO INCANTO CLASSIC CLASS Operating Instructions Manual Page 5

try pushing the beans into the grind mechanism while it is grinding or turning the grinder knob but only when grinding, or try different beans

Hi
Either you dredge drawer is missing.
The tab in the back of the dredge drawer is broken.
The microswitch is bad for the dredge drawer.
The grinder motor is bad.

Hi
Turn you big knob in the bean hopper up all the way to the largest #, then try again. If it clears the and makes a coffee do it 1 more time then turn the big knob back down while the grinder is running but don't turn it down as far as you had it before,(1 to 2# higher)

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.

Hi,

Make sure you not get any water in the grinder.

Hi,
What kind of Saeco machine do you have, and how old is it?

The machine automatically stir the beans since the blade make vibration and doing that shake the bean all around.Make sure the the tank is half full so the weight will help on that.If the container is almost empty the bean will fly around and don`t get in the grinder.Back up the machine to the original factory grinding and try to adjust again the wheel

ok turn the machine on and wait till warmed up. Open door while machine is on and remove the dreg drawer. This you always need to do when the machine is on otherwise it will not reset.
flashing means dreg drawer steady means coffee beans

I found a machine in my dentist's office with this exact same problem. I'm not familiar with the model, so I downloaded a manual for the closest model I could find online (the Sirius), and it offered no help -- but in 8 languages!

I ended up just pulling the drip tray, pulling the box where the grounds end up, and re-inserting the assembly (all while the machine was on.) When I buttoned it up again, it worked.

Hope this helps (although I can see how it might not...)
