Fill bean container

Fill bean container appears on the coffee machine display even though the bean container is full.

The bean container has just been filled.

Confirm the message with OK.

Insufficient coffee beans are getting into the grinder.

This type of coffee bean is often more oily. These oils can cling to the inside of the coffee bean container and hinder the flow of beans.

Make a coffee and observe whether the coffee beans drop into the coffee bean container.

Clean the coffee bean container more often if you are using a darker, more oily bean.

Try other types of coffee bean which are less oily.

Too little coffee ends up in the brew unit.

This message can appear with certain types of coffee due to the grinding quality in conjunction with the settings for degree of grinding and quantity of coffee.

Adjust the settings on your coffee machine to those that best suit the type of coffee you are using.

Change the degree of grinding and the quantity of coffee in such a way that you get the best possible result.

Take the Pre-brewing option into account. This affects the coffee aroma.
If your coffee tastes too bland and you want to add some spice and richness, try the “Pre-brewing” function. Depending on the type of coffee used, pre-brewing can intensify the taste.

For thorough and gentle cleaning of your coffee machine, we recommend Miele products which also care for your appliance at the same time.

If preparation is cancelled, the brew unit does not detect the coffee powder.

Certain types of coffee produce a small amount of coffee when they are ground. In such cases, the degree of grinding is usually set to fine and the minimum quantity of coffee is set.

Confirm the message with OK.

If the coffee is too strong for you or tastes bitter, try a different type of coffee bean.

If the display appears with all types of coffee specialities:

Set the degree of grinding to a coarser setting.

Increase the quantity of coffee.

Don’t forget to check any drinks changed in “Profiles”.
