Question about Saeco Vienna SuperAutomatica Coffee Maker/Espresso Machine

Grinder reassembly I had the coffee grinder clog up with coffee. I disassembled the grinder, cleaned out the trapped coffee and reassembled the grinder. I didn't look to see how the top piece was aligned. The grider had a blue and red mark and the top piece had a red mark on it. I tried aligning the two red marks but the coffee brewed extremely weak. Any suggestions?

Miele CVA 4085, the grinder is not grinding the beans. It makes the noise but basically water just comes out with very little coffee.

Here are some specific steps you can take to try to repair the grinder issue with your Miele CVA 4085 coffee machine:
  1. Clean the grinder: Remove any coffee grounds that may have accumulated in the grinder mechanism, and clean it thoroughly with a brush or cloth.
  2. Check the grind burrs: Inspect the grind burrs for any signs of wear or damage, such as chips or cracks. If they are worn, they may need to be replaced.
  3. Adjust the grind setting: Make sure that the grind setting is adjusted correctly for your type of coffee beans. If it is set too fine, the grinder may struggle to process the beans.
  4. Check the grinder motor: Make sure that the grinder motor is functioning properly and that it is not overheating. If it is making a strange noise or if it seems to be struggling to turn, it may need to be repaired or replaced.
  5. Reassemble the grinder: Make sure that the grinder mechanism is properly assembled and that all components are securely fastened.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to have a professional service the machine.

The beans go through the grinder very slow so the machine stops and the bean lite comes. Never does enough beans get ground to start the brewing cycle.

Hi, Your grinder is gumed up and needs to be removed and disassembled to be cleaned out. It works by timing and not coffee weight. If you dont clean it out, it will cause the grinder motor brushes to wear very quickly, and you,ll have to replace the whole grinder assembly. expensive. Use white out to mark the postion of the grinder assembly before you disassemble it. Can be a bit confussing when reassembly of the grinder, but take your time. Put it back together excactly how it was, and it'll be like new again, plus your coffee will taste heaps better. You can call me if you have problems 0401 200 901. Dazza Repairer

Grinding makes a lot of scratch noise and coffee wouldn't drip. The machine says to fill the beans but container is full.

Likely a foreign object is blocking up the grinder. Remove all beans and run at coarsest grind to try to clear it, chase it through with more beans if necessary. If this does not clear it then the top burr of the grinder assembly can be removed after disassembling the machine. Mark the grinder coarseness cogs before moving them to assist reassembly. Moderately difficult procedure.

Coffee comes out very slow/ driping

The fluid pathway is obstructed with buildup. Disassemble, clean and reassemble. Should operate fine.

Grinder doesnt grind beans although the motor works and the burr spins. I have cleaned it per the instructions and reassembled . Everything seems to fit together properly, but the beans don't seem to be...

I would suspect a log in the outlet shute where it goes into the grinds hopper. Clean it out and then turn the hopper to the coarsest setting to clean it out all together. Coarse grinds are a very good cleaner.

Ginding problems, all clogged up

Follow these instructions to put grinder back together...

Items needed to clean grinder
1- #2 Phillips head screw driver
1 Cleaning brush
Prep:
Remove all beans from the bean hopper, vacuum out any
beans that cannot be scooped out by hand.
Remove the front and back screws and pull off bean hopper
container from the machine. (Note: The rear screw is longer
than the front screw.)
Note: Doser adjustment knob is available only on Vienna
Digital and Vienna Deluxe Rapid Steam.
Place screws in a safe place so that they will not be lost.

Before beginning to clean the grinder please be sure to turn the machine off and unplug it from the wall
socket. Grinder Tip: Using an oily bean will cause the coffee to build up quickly and clog the grinder.
Saeco recommends using a medium to dark colored bean that is not oily.
After cleaning the grinder and then brewing a cup of coffee it may take 2-3 grinding cycles for the machine
to dispense coffee.
Step 1:
Remove the black rubber gasket, then vacuum additional beans or grinds from the grinder area (Fig. 1).
Rotate the outer ring of the grinder counter-clockwise until the red line is at the 12 o'clock position (as
viewed from the front of the machine) or until the red line on the outer ring is 180º from the opposite red
line on inner burr ring (Fig. 2).
Lift the inner burr ring out of the assembly (Fig. 3).
Figure 1 Figure 2 Figure 3
Step 2:
Vacuum out any residual grinds from inside the grinder and clean the grinder burrs using the cleaning
brush (Fig. 5). Clean out the grinder coffee chute using the end of the cleaning brush (Fig. 5).
Remove the drip tray, open the service door, remove the dregdrawer and brew group. Gently pull
down the coffee doser door and brush out any ground coffee that may be inside the chute (Fig. 6).
Reassembly:
Be sure that the red line on the outer ring is still in the 12 o'clock position. Place the inner burr ring back
into the grinder making sure the red line on the inner burr is at the 6 o'clock position or 180º opposite from
the red line on the outer ring (Fig. 2). Once the inner burr ring is in place, rotate the outer ring clockwise
until it will not turn any further. At this time the two red lines should be aligned. The grinder is now at the
"0" position. Replace black round rubber gasket (Fig. 7).
Take the bean hopper container and rotate the grinder adjustment wheel to zero (0) (Fig. 8) and the doser
adjustment knob to the minus symbol (-) (Fig. 9). Slide the doser adjustment gear toward the left of the
machine until it stops. (Note: The Vienna Black does not have a doser adjustment knob. Only the Vienna
Digital & Vienna Deluxe Rapid Steam have a doser adjustment wheel.)
Reinstall the bean hopper container being sure to use the LONG screw in the back, then replace the finger
guard using the short screw in the front of the container. Once the bean hopper container has been
reinstalled, rotate each knob through the full range of motion. The grinder knob should rotate from (0) to
(18) and back, and the doser knob from the minus symbol (-) to plus symbol (+) and back.
Place the grinder adjustment knob at the eight (8) position and place the doser knob at the halfway
point between the plus symbol (+) and the minus symbol (-) symbol, or to your preferred settings.

Embarassing but...

No, wait, I found it. If it's round and is (or used to be) white, it fits on the bottom of the clear plastic hopper. Replace it and you should be in good shape again.
