Avanti Grinder Not Engaging

Grind-and-brew Avanti coffee maker does not grind beans; brewing proceeds with hot water only.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Grinder function disabled in settings, Empty bean hopper, Grinder motor failure, Grinder lid safety switch open

Safety first: Unplug before accessing the grinder area.

Check settings: Ensure the machine is set to grind-and-brew mode and not using pre-ground coffee mode.
Fill hopper: Confirm there are enough beans in the hopper and that they are not jammed.
Verify lid closure: Make sure the grinder lid is fully closed to engage the safety switch.

If the grinder never runs despite correct settings and a full hopper, the grinder motor or its control circuit may need replacement.
