What Fill coffee beans
actually means.
The CMP 250 decides the container is empty when the grinder runs without beans arriving. Glossy, heavily roasted beans cling to the walls and bridge over the opening; the manual's answer is a tap, a dry wipe and a change of bean.

What to do when Fill coffee beans shows on the coffee machineKind of codeGrinder and beans
The grinder ran and too little came through, or it did not run at all: the hopper is empty, an oily or flavored bean is bridging over the burrs, a small stone or a clump has jammed them, or the burrs themselves are worn so the grind has turned coarse. Topping up with dry, plain beans and letting the machine try again clears most of it; a grinder that clicks, hums or stays silent with a full hopper needs its burrs and motor checked.
Usually leads toCoffee machine grinder repair
Clearing and renewing the burr grinder: jammed beans, a stone between the burrs, worn burrs, and the motor and gearbox that turn them.
Shows up asWhat a Coffee Machine Error Code or Warning Symbol Means
A coffee machine error code may show as a short string of letters and numbers, a flashing symbol for water, grounds or the brew unit, a short sentence on a text display, or a machine that stops with one light blinking.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Gaggenau's own guidance for Fill coffee beans on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Tap the bean container gently so the beans fall toward the grinder.
Wipe the empty container out with a dry cloth so no oil film remains.
Refill with a drier, lighter roast; if the grinder turns but still takes nothing, book a visit.
Still there?
It usually turns into coffee machine grinder repair. Book with the code and the model number.
What not to do
A grinder that makes no sound is a motor or power problem, not an empty reading. Coffee that pours weak with beans present is a grind setting question.

Grinder and beans on other makes
Built-in coffee system
The coffee machine set flush into a tall kitchen cabinet, filled from a water tank behind its front, grinding beans and brewing each cup on its own before sliding out on rails for service.
Plumbed coffee system
The built-in coffee machine connected to the house water supply, filling itself through an inlet valve and sometimes draining its rinse water to a line of its own, so nobody ever lifts out a tank.
In Gaggenau's own words
Display screen shows "Fill coffee beans". The appliance does not grind the beans despite filled bean container.

Three things make the booking useful: the message or number exactly as the display showed it, the full model number from the plate, and whether the machine still grinds and pours at all. Send those and the likely part can be looked up before the van leaves.
