Possible Causes
Grounds packed in chute, Oily beans causing clumping, Misaligned chute cover, Broken grinder discharge flap
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the coffee maker before accessing the grinder or chute.
- Empty beans: Remove beans from the Braun hopper.
- Access chute: Open the grinder chute cover (if accessible) and use a small brush to loosen compacted grounds.
- Avoid oily beans: Switch to dry, non‑flavored beans to reduce clogging.
- Test with small batch: Refill with a small amount of beans and run a grind cycle to confirm flow.
If grounds still do not reach the basket, the chute flap or internal path may be broken or misaligned and require service.
