# JennAir GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL: coffee is dripping through too slowly

JennAir shows this in two forms.

## What GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL actually means.

JennAir shows this in two forms. One pairs it with INSERT WATER SPOUT and the other alternates it with Press OK and FILL TANK!, and JennAir's own pages match those two forms to the causes in different ways. Between them the causes are a grind too fine for the water to pass, a tank lifted out during a brew, and air in the water line, so all three are worth checking.

What to do when GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL 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.

### Source JennAir help: GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL, Press OK, FILL TANK!

JennAir 24-inch built-in coffee systems: JJB6424HL (Rise), JJB6424HM (Noir) and the earlier Euro-Style JBC7624BS. JennAir's help pages and the JBC7624BS guide pair the two display forms with the causes in opposite ways.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from JennAir's own guidance for GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Make sure the tank is filled and pushed fully in, then press OK; if HOT WATER shows, let it run until it stops so the air clears.

02

Order a coffee and, as soon as you hear the burrs, give the knob one click clockwise toward 7.

03

Make two cups before judging, and repeat one click at a time until the flow looks right.

04

If the message keeps returning, switch off at the main switch, wait, switch on again, and book a visit if it persists.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [coffee machine grinder repair](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/services/coffee-machine-grinder-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

It does not mean the grinder is broken; it means the brew was too slow. It also should not be answered by turning the knob with the grinder stopped, which JennAir does not allow.

### 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.

## In JennAir's own words

## Questions about GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL.

### Can I clear GROUND TOO FINE ADJUST MILL myself?

Make sure the tank is filled and pushed fully in, then press OK; if HOT WATER shows, let it run until it stops so the air clears. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Which way do I turn the JennAir grinder knob for GROUND TOO FINE?

Clockwise, one click toward 7, and only while the grinder is running. Results show after two cups.

### Why did GROUND TOO FINE appear on my JennAir right after I refilled the tank?

Lifting the tank out during a brew lets air into the line. Refit the tank, press OK and let the hot water run to clear it.

### How can I reset my JennAir coffee system if the message will not go away?

Turn it off at the main switch on the side, then on again; it runs a self-check and goes to standby. Press On/Standby to start.
