Is there a way to factory reset my Saeco Xsmall settings?

1- The grind fineness setting is too fine. Pump is not able to pump through the compacted coffee grounds.

2- The machine is not descaled. The Calcium deposits in the hydraulic system have reduced the pump pressure. The partially clogged water passages can generate a back pressure to reduce pumping pressure. Was the machine descaled in the past two or three moths? If yes, what was the descaling product used?
3- The pump may be air locked and not able to pump water.
4- Oily beans may have been used. Oily beans are poison for the all fully automatic espresso machines. This clogs the grinding chamber or the grinder outlet. This model is made in Romania made in 2006 or after. This machine has a Ceramic Burr grinder 2006 which is a huge problem to clean adjust beans quantity per shot of espresso etc. etc. Occasionally it will dump dry coffee grounds when the quantity of beans powder is insufficient.

Based on the above details, you can figure out what is wrong and fix it. See the exploded parts diagram included, for help. Services Unlimited Inc Parts Guru Since 1988

Btw, I’m available to help over the phone in case u need at https://www.6ya.com/expert/edward_bbd2c7ff4ee1828a

I'd check owner's manual troubleshooting.

You have to turn the button to the side where is the icon of the cup.
Then you have to wait until the machine stops running water by itself.

no,don't have

the coffee is too fine. Change the grinder position ,inside coffee beans container.

Owning this machine for nearly five years, all I can say is that it is an example of problematic engineering. It does not except dark roast some of the time, and if it is very well roasted it won't accept it at all. As the machine is fully automatic, there is not much you can do but roast the coffee to a degree that will be accepted by the machine. IMHO this is an unacceptable decision made by engineers and Saeco should address this issue.

Saeco XSmall : Cannot put brew group back in... Turns out the drive gear in the main machine is mis-aligned. This can happen if you try to remove trays or open the service door while the machine has not "finished" a brewing cycle (coffee may be done, but the machine is not!). Confirm this by looking at the drive shaft. It has 5 splines, and two are much wider than the other 3. Those wider ones should be on the top--if they are in any other position, then it does not match the "neutral" position in the brew group and the brew group cannot be inserted. Unless there is something else wrong, the machine will re-align itself during the power-on self-check, but in order to trigger the self-check, you have to fool it into thinking that all the trays, etc. are installed (essentially, bypass all relevant microswitches). This doc has some details and pictures of what to look for: https://www.coffeetico.com/SAECO_pdf_files/BrewGroupRemoval.pdf. For the XSmall, leave the brew group out, shut the service door and put the grounds bin in. Also, make sure the water bin and drip tray are in as normal. This is enough for the XSmall to startup. Turn the machine on and as it does its self-check, the gears get re-aligned properly. It will eventually figure out the brew group is missing and start flashing red--turn the machine off at that point. Verify that the two wide splines are at the top. The brew group should now slide in easily.

Hi!

I have a saeco incanto deluxe, it was same problem, i just "reset to factory settings"
in the menu, and then the maschine worked again :-)

Run vinegar water through it.

3 parts vinegar to 1 part water.
