# JennAir FILL BEANS CONTAINER!: the grinder has run out of beans

The bean container sits above the metal burr grinder, and it is reached by sliding the whole coffee system forward on its handles.

## What FILL BEANS CONTAINER! actually means.

The bean container sits above the metal burr grinder, and it is reached by sliding the whole coffee system forward on its handles. When the beans run out, the machine stops. JennAir also names oily dark roasts and stones in the bean mix as causes of beans jamming at the grinder inlet.

What to do when FILL BEANS CONTAINER! shows on the coffee machine

### Kind of code Grinder 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 to Coffee 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 as What 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.

### Make JennAir

A JennAir built-in coffee maker that has gone quiet or started dripping is checked in the kitchen, beginning with the tray sensor and the tank contacts.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from JennAir's own guidance for FILL BEANS CONTAINER! on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Slide the coffee system forward on its rails by the handles.

02

Open the bean lid, fill the container with whole beans and close it, then push the unit back in.

03

If the container was already full, gently vacuum the grinder inlet to clear any stone and try a drier, lighter roast.

04

If the message persists with free-flowing beans, book a visit.

### Still there?

### What not to do

The message is not triggered by an empty pre-ground funnel. Nor should ground, freeze-dried or caramel-coated coffee go into the bean container to silence it; JennAir warns these can damage the machine.

## Questions about FILL BEANS CONTAINER!.

### Can I clear FILL BEANS CONTAINER! myself?

Slide the coffee system forward on its rails by the handles. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Where do the beans go on a JennAir built-in coffee system?

In the container on top, reached by sliding the unit forward with its handles. The lid lifts and the container fills from above.

### Why do beans jam in my JennAir grinder?

Oily dark roasts and small stones in the bean mix are JennAir's two named causes. Vacuum the inlet and switch to a drier roast.

### How many grind settings does the JennAir coffee system have?

Seven, on a metal burr grinder. The knob moves only while the grinder is running.
