Rinse water and coffee drips collect in the tray, and the Jura stops drinks when it is full. The message also appears as a normal step during descaling and cleaning, when the machine asks for an empty tray before it continues. Jura coffee machine display What to do when Empty drip tray shows on the coffee machine ### Kind of code Grounds and drip tray The machine thinks the grounds container is full or missing, or the drip tray is full or out of place, and it will not brew until that changes. Most machines count the pucks rather than weigh them, so the message returns if the container is emptied while the power is off or put back too quickly. When it stays after a proper emptying, the tray contacts, the sensor or the counter on the board is checked at the visit. ### Usually leads to Coffee machine diagnostic visit A visit that brews and froths with you watching, reads the machine's own counters, then tests grinder, brew unit, pump and heater until one part is named. ### 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 Jura Jura coffee machines are fixed where they stand, and the visit opens with a look at the cleaning and filter history the owner can recall. ### Source JURA E8 instructions for use (North America) E8 pairs it with Empty grounds; ENA 8 shows it during descaling and cleaning as well. ## Before you book, in this order.

Pull out the drip tray, empty it and rinse it with warm water. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Why does my Jura ask me to empty the drip tray during descaling? It is part of the program. The machine needs room for the rinse water before it continues. ### My Jura drip tray fills after just a few cups. Is that normal? Rinsing at switch-on and off adds water, so the tray fills quickly with frequent use. If it overflows between uses, book a visit. ### Does the Jura drip tray need more than emptying? Jura asks for it to be rinsed with warm water daily, and the cup platform above it cleaned as needed. --- **[Read on the site: Jura Empty drip tray: the tray is full](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/error-codes/jura-empty-drip-tray/)** **[Book a visit with CoffeeMachineRepair.center](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/schedule/)**
