Breville espresso machine grinder runs but no coffee comes out of the chute.

Safety: Unplug before working near the grinder. Keep fingers away from burrs.

Steps:

• Empty the bean hopper and vacuum out loose beans.
• Remove the upper burr and inspect the grinder chute for compacted coffee. Use a brush or wooden stick to clear it.
• Run the grinder briefly with no beans to blow out remaining grounds.
• Avoid very oily beans that tend to clump; mix with drier beans if necessary.

Resolution: If the chute repeatedly clogs, inspect for a broken internal flap or misalignment and replace the grinder chute assembly if damaged.
