What Fill bean container
actually means.

The Jura notices when the grinder finds no beans. Unlike the water and tray messages, this one blocks only coffee. Oily beans left on the container walls can also affect results, so Jura suggests cleaning the container when the message comes up.

What to do when Fill bean container shows on the coffee machine

Before you book,
in this order.

01

Switch the machine off, remove the aroma preservation cover and wipe the empty container with a soft, dry cloth.

Still there?

Back to your everyday

Still showing Fill 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.
