Hello, I recently acquired a Jura Capresso Impressa E8 model 13187 and your videos have been very helpful introducing me to the machine and how to service.. The machine is 20 years old and has never been serviced so it is no surprise it was locked up with an E8 error. I disassembled and did a thorough cleaning replacing most of the o-rings although determining the exact ones to use from the kit I ordered was difficult to determine for the drainage assembly as it appeared one possibly was smaller than the others. Anyway the E8 error is gone and it runs but there is a very loud vibration and I am wondering if it may be the solenoid that engages the metal rod to open the drain assembly. It was recommended to replace the plastic cap on the drain assembly with a metal one which I did. All bolts are tight and the brew group moves freely and I don't think the gears are slipping. Any suggestions for what I should do next to troubleshoot this? Since this is an old thread and I don't know if you are still checking comments I may also try to reach out by email or phone. Thank You.

Well, removing the side panels on my J9 requires 1 additional screw located where the water tank is located. The screw is recessed to the right after removing water tank.

I have a problem with a jura impressa e85 it spills most of the brewed coffee into the tray… can you help me?

Happy New Year. I fixed the problem, but I have another one. I have watery grounds and water in the tray, and coffee is slow at the spouts. Also, there, I noticed dripping from the pressure relief valve. This valve is doing its job, and something else is clogging the brewer unit up, and the problem has nothing with anything before that valve to do. I might be wrong just applying common sense.

Thank you jay

What is the part number?

I ordered the new valve you recommended and when i installed it, the Milk still sputters but the Milk foam works fine. Any idea why Foam would work and Milk will not?

Thank you so much for this excellent tutorial! Very thorough and informative and it has answered a lot of questions about my much loved Saeco Venezia that I thought was on the way out (but not anymore!!) the coffee grains I can now use. Just had a beutiful, fresh cup of coffee using the tip you advised me about holding the handle until the pressure builds up. What a difference!! Thank you again.

This is super helpful please leave up!

how old is your machine? the new foam looks great. My Z10 seems sputter when the milk container is 75% emply, which is weird, it might be because the remaining milk has aged just enough to spit. with a fresh container of milk it foams as new again.

My Three Solutions, without replacing the nozzle. #1 ~ Only Lite/2% Fat Milk Only…..#2 ~ Shorter Milk Pipe…,#3 ~ Remove the Foamer Device, as noted here, I Boosted a piece of Split Silicone Tube behind the Milk Input, where the Milk Tube Inserts , the Cover will Go On With Ease, that worked for a Year. NOW, I am after all these, back to the Dreaded Sputter…!😢 Going to Soak the Foamer to possible remove build-ups.

Right off the bat, What is your problem there, Whole Milk is a Bad Thing for these Machines, high fat content really congeals/blocks the steamer, as it’s just too full of milk fat. Although this has cured my problems for years, and another solution I had, bolstering input with a piece of silicone tube, now it looks like yours there after all my “Tricks” prove unsuccessful….😢

Hi I need your help! The brewer unitis clean and moves freely and correctly. I adjusted it to the starting position, but when I turn on, it spiraled all the way to the top and ran there, making noise and not returning to the starting position. What could be wrong?

Excelent work! Please, do you ship to Brazil?

Hi whats optimal water flow rate on rotary pump

I’ve tried all suggestions and still get weak bitter shots

I have followed every step but putting back together, the pisten keeps popping out and I can’t get it to stay. Why..

What about hot milk, I have hsf several Z6 that makes fine foam, but have problem sputtering all over the place with hot milk....

I'm good until here kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWLRaJ2Ka8See6M . The lower piston in not in the right position in the "hole" Everything moved smooth until this point?

that Jura logo removal is SO HARD. You need gecko fingers. update : typing this message made mne think of rubber garden gloves. SUCCESS!

never knew that you can hold the knob to build up pressure

The loud pulsing, grinding sound is coming from the encoder motor; it feels loose and gets quiet if I push on it. The torx mounting screw are tight but it has a lot of play in it.

Jura XJ9, I rebuilt the brew group but the machine just makes noise trying to make coffee, I have to unplug it. It does make hot water> Thoughts?

Can you please show disassembly of brew group?

Brilliant video. Thanks so much !

What about the z10? Mine is sputtering

Nice detailed video. Have you ever had problem I'm currently having with my jura z6. One of the hose going from pump to solenoid valve bursted open and killed the waterpump. But the new pump stays on and doesn't shut off until I unplug the machine. I will add the vid to my channel. No clue what else water might damage 😢

What is the size of porta filter of saeco magic cappuccino?

Common... with a pressurized portafilter you just create not so even unidirectional flow of water through the coffee puck, despite the value of the created pressure inside the basket. It's more single point directed towards exit. That way you just lose some extraction from your coffee on the basket periphery. In the non pressurized portafilter, having the correct grind size you don't have to tamp it hard, and you have really one directional flow extraction, flowing evenly distributed through entire coffee puck. Actually using both systems - pressurized and non pressurized, and once correct grind dialing selected - non pressurized option is always resulting in better extracted/ better balanced / better texture (the fresh grind coffee is a must to taste the difference clearly). Giving my guests blind test for both options - nobody proffered pressurized portafilter result. In short - pressurized result is always more watery tasting extraction and some fake crema taste. But... if I use some pre-grind canned coffee then the difference is not so evident, although I can tell always apart. Correct dial for grinding is really easy-peasy to find if you are not often switching between beans. On the other hand - there might be a really awful grind/tamping habits where non pressurized portafilter would give just really bad results compared to fool-proof pressurized portafilter, and you can face it in a random coffee shop :D

Jura Capresso Impressa S9 Not getting hot coffee. Heating element replacement? If so, any idea cost for part? Thx

for Jura E50 I can't find anywhere what gasket is needed for steam valve connected to thermoblock? No picture no info, nowhere. I have there serious leaking hot water under pressure and can't find what is needed there, what type. Could you help me please?

Hi. In my Jura S7 water is going to collection container and dry coffee in ground container. What is wrong with drainage valve? I cleaned it two times. Thanks

Thanks so much for the information

Hello.. Can anyone help me with an issue with Gamea? I am fairly familiar with maintenance..problem we are having is water wont go up thru brew group... I have looked at springs in top of brew group and in valve by cam..all look very good.. Water will come out with brew group out but put it back in and it discharges into tray a few drops will come out of cup area..no it isnt plugged as i have blown air and comes out great.. Please leave a contact info. Thank you!!

Does this instruction apply to C9 model? Thanks a lot.

Thanks a lot Can you make a vidéo on how to charge the switch that causes the missing basket message please ?

Can I use other motor for rotary pump for diy espresso machine?

Nothing new.Those machines like their fungus.

I would like to say. Thank you for sharing. I have a long time ago had you work on my s9 2 time and 2 other. Now I Have a s9 for the last 3 1/2 years and all is good. I do clean it with my hand up in side of it. But I do not take it apart.

Thanks, this was very helpful indeed. The brewing unit was just gross but after opening the machine with the mandatory oval head screw bit, cleaning it was as easy as can be

good day! need help! I removed the rear side panel, the top as well, but I can't get to the temperature sensor!? Please help? ???I will be very grateful! 😊

Thank you this was very helpful, the best information on the internet.

Thanks for the video. It was very helpful, especially the part on how to remove the grind adjustment gear. I removed any blockage and put it all back together, but the error 1 persists. It doesn't even attempt to grind. The error 1 comes up as soon as I press the coffee button. How to tell if the sensor, or the motor, or the white gear need to be replaced? The white gear seems a little hard to rotate manually, but I can rotate the motor manually with the little piece of shaft sticking at the back, and it rotates the white gear easily because of the gear ratio torque. Can you give me some pointers on how to isolate the problem? Thanks.

There seems to be a pressure relief valve on the brew group drainage valve. It’s the spring loaded rod with the white nylon cap. I currently have water coming out of the bypass and discharging the water directly into the waist area, not sending it up thru the fresh grounds. Any one have an idea of what’s wrong or why this is happening?

Excellent video - thank you very much! I just purchased a replacement Brew Group for my Jura Ena 5 from Parts Guru and while I was replacing it, I wanted to clean and refurbish the grinder. This video was very helpful!! Unfortunately, when I was reassembling the grinder, I did not tighten down the screw for the bottom burr all the way - the screw becomes very tight and I didn't want to overtighten it. However, in doing this, I left the burr about 1-2mm too high which led to strange problems with the operation of the machine. The burrs were too close and the grind was way too fine which caused the brewing to be extremely slow and the coffee way too strong. Also the rotating adjustment was very difficult. I had to remove the grinder from the machine twice, which requires some disassembly and removal of the electronics. The final time, I realized I could just remove the bean hopper funnel from above and I had direct access to the grinder. I was able to remove the top and bottom burrs easily with the grinder still in the machine, clean everything and tighten down the bottom burr all the way. Works perfect now! Thank you, Parts Guru for your help and guidance!

Dear Sir I would like to exactly what component is at fault when the “close Tap’ lights up and both the steam and water light go off …when I bump the two push buttons for steam and water with a back side of a knife the machine starts working again! You have not posted the new tube of the Jura A 1

First step - UNPLUG THE MACHINE FROM POWER

Pretty sure the motor wasn't that HUGE in my Rotary pump ECM Synchronika machine. That one in the video was likely out of a larger commercial machine I'm guessing, not out of that little home machine it's on top of? Rotary pumps are usually a good amount quieter than vibratory! not totally silent but less annoying. Of course a grinder is usually louder than the pump! Some vibratory pumps are better / quieter than others, I think it might also depend on how the espresso machine manufacturer dampens / mounts the pump some do it in a way to reduce noise a bit. There's other differences between rotary and vibratory pumps: They ramp up to pressure differently, Vibratory pumps slowly ramp up when pulling a shot and flow is generally slower like 6-8ml/sec where Rotary pump ramps up quickly at about 11ml/sec so there's potentially differences in how the pumps can affect your coffee extraction. Rotary also holds the pressure with less oscillation. I've heard mixed things about whether or not people can actually taste the difference between a rotary pump and vibratory pump machine assuming everything else is the same. Some E61 machines offer the same machine with either type of pump. Another difference is rotary pumps are more reliable and last longer than vibratory, the downside is if you do ever need to replace a rotary pump they're a lot more expensive than a cheap vibratory pump. Vibratory might also be easier to replace since it's not as large, it might be easier to get to without taking more parts out to get at it.

Is it normal after making an espresso for the machine to dump water into bottom tray when turning off machine. Not too much maybe a few ounces. Like it’s relieving the pressure.
