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.
