Coffee is too weak or watery, even on the strongest setting.

Safety: Unplug before accessing grinder or brew unit.

• Adjust strength: Increase the coffee strength and volume settings via the control panel.
• Grind finer: Adjust the grinder to a finer setting while the grinder is running (per AEG instructions) to avoid jamming.
• Clean brew unit: Remove the brew group and clean the metal filter screen thoroughly with a brush and warm water.
• Check burrs: Inspect grinder burrs for wear or chipping. Replace the grinder assembly if burrs are dull.
