What LESS COFFEE
actually means.
The pre-ground funnel on the EC24 takes one scoop per cup. More than that overfills the infuser, and the machine stops with LESS COFFEE; the extra should be thrown out as a puck. A very strong setting with a dense coffee can do the same.

What to do when LESS COFFEE shows on the coffee machineKind of codeBrew unit
The brew unit did not reach the position the control expected, or could not press and brew as it should: it is caked with old grounds, dry where it needs its grease, jammed by a dose too large, or its drive and seals are worn. On a machine with a removable unit, lifting it out with the power off and rinsing it is the owner's check; a fixed unit is cleaned by its own cycle, and anything past that is a visit.
Usually leads toCoffee machine brew unit repair
Resealing, lubricating or replacing the brew unit that tamps the grounds and presses water through them, removable or fixed.
Shows up asWhat 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.

Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from Wolf's own guidance for LESS COFFEE on its coffee machines. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Let the machine eject the overfilled puck, then put the unit in standby and switch it on again.
Use only the scoop supplied and only one level scoop per cup in the pre-ground funnel.
If you brew from beans, choose a milder strength setting.
If LESS COFFEE returns with the right dose, book a visit.

What not to do
LESS COFFEE does not mean the bean hopper is low or the grinder is off. It is also not a strength complaint about weak coffee; it is the opposite, too much coffee in the chamber.

Still showing LESS COFFEE?
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.
