I've had my J90 (second hand, new in box) for about 7 years. No problems until a few days ago when I pressed the "coffee" button, the grinder runs and then the machine shuts off. No beeps, no blinks. I found your video and took the machine apart to examine and clean the brew group. While cleaning, a stainless washer fell out. Later, I heard a rattling inside, and after shaking and rotating the brew group, a stainless bushing came out. I have no idea (despite much searching) where in the machine these belong. I lubed the brew group with food grade grease and put it back together. It is working, but I can't help but wonder where the extra parts go. Any ideas?
There are 4 metal washers that connect to each sliding arm and under. There is also a metal retaining clip that secures the metal rod to bottom of the brew unit.
Don't think I ever got to comment but you are such an absolute genius! This video helped me fix my machine, I had a different problem but can't fix if I can't open the machine correctly. Thank you so much!
C9 is similar internally as Impressa E8, E9. It has a solenoid valve located below the thermoblock to control steam/hot water flow from the cappuccino spout
This is a great video! Thank you! My machine is intermittently brewing coffee, and then at other times passing water right to the tray. Sometimes it makes a partial cup of coffee and just filter the rest of the water to the tray. Do you know what needs to be looked at or replaced? Starting to take the machine apart now using your video.
Hello. I have a Jura Impressa F8. It says I must add beans even though it is full of beans. What method does the machine use to sense that there is "No beans".?
I have a Jura S9 Impressa that keeps telling me missing tray. I've cleaned the contacts on the tray and in the machine and no luck. Any suggestions on how to repair this issue.
Thank you! Thank U! I have never watched a video so much in detail and knowledge. You are simply the best, not forget to point out your cool demeanor and the way you get your video instructions get to your audience. Once again thank you and god bless you my friend. I got my machine fixed by following your video.
I've used my Via Venezia (purchased at Starbucks about 20 yrs ago) on and off. I had put it away for a long time and started using it again and was going to go the route of buying a bottomless portafilter but didn't do right away. I came across your video and was so thankful!! I was always able to get good shots of espresso but didn't know about holding the handle for 6-8 seconds. I do get uneven shots coming from both spouts but still get lots of nice crema. I almost took the portafilter apart!! Thank goodness I didn't. After I make the adujstments you suggested I will probably be even more blown away by my delicious coffee :) I still don't know how to clean the portafilter but maybe you have it in another video?? Thank again for your great and easy explanations!!!
Dear sir, thanks for ur informative video, I would like to ask if u can send me if available any technical information for the Groupe of push button power switch of home espresso machine De'Longhi Icona. thanks in advance.
Thank you very much. Your are very good at what you do. This time I have been able to open and clean the machine myself. I will order some parts from your company. You are the best!
Great video! Two questions. Rebuilding my first ENA3 brew group. 1) the little pipe shaped piece that fits at bottom has a small gasket that fits on the 90 degree bend end, does that gasket just fit on END or does it need to be put on further past first ring? 2) bottom of my brew unit does not have the brown plastic shroud that fits at bottom. Our family has a ENA5 so wondering why this one DOES have the brown shroud. What is its purpose? How is this brown shroud removed? Sorry system won’t allow me to send photos. Thx
Excellent video! Am considering rebuilding my ENA3 brew kit. However it’s only producing very coarse grounds regardless of settings. I’ve taken apart and tried various calibrations, even as “tight” as possible and still getting very coarse grounds that do not form pucks. Presume this is a grinder issue and not brew kit seals, etc. PLEASE HELP!!
lol it’s called a ceramic valve because it’s made of ceramic. I guess when you service these units you fail to disassemble and clean the ceramic valve . That is pretty scary because this is one of the most disgusting parts of the unit and gets very dirty…When you do you will see the 2 piece of ceramic that need to be clean as they are extremely smooth to form a sliding watertight connection .
I secured a piece of tape to the just round plastic logo emblem and used the loose tape ends on either side to rotate the 1/8 of an inch and it easily came off
In the first scene you show the tongue installed backwards. It has the double bended tongue. It should be the flat part of the tongue. It must be turned 180 degrees. I don't know the actual name, but it is brown plastic. It is called compacting housing
Good evening, I have a Jura E75 and from time to time the coffee ends up in the bottom tray under the coffee grounds. It does not flow from my 2 holes. What could I do. Thank you, Adrian
What if it is the pump, where are the videos to replace the pump? We’ve replaced the membrane regulation, checked all the hoses it is now down to the pump. No videos on that.
A big missed point here is that an espresso is about 30 ml shot within 25 seconds. So it's not just about getting 9 bars but getting it with a flowrate about 70 cc/mn. That's a capacity no vibratory pump has, by far... At 9 bars a basic one (like Ulka E5 shown here) will push about 255 cc / mn, making nerds add a dimmer mod to slow down water's flow, but then they understand why they need a better pump as they are not all equal in their capacity to deal with variable current... and also, even with an Invensys/Olab/ARS CP3, they lose some bars in the process as reducing the flow implies reducing the pressure. With a lot of fine tuning best espresso machines based on a vibratory pump can indeed produce an espresso within 25 seconds, but at 8 to 8.5 bars, making the result a bit more acidic and bitterness lacking than the optimal 9 bars. But the more you add variables the trickier it will be to produce an espresso, and adding a dimmer adds a lot of variables (it has an impact on temperature's stability too, it's not just about water's flow). So at some point you'll need a controller to replicate profiles the same way every time, asking at least for a PID mod, if not a full Arduino solution. None of this is necessary with a good rotary pump. Noise level is a bad argument for sure, also because it is way easier to soundproof a small pump than a big one, but rotary pumps are still way superior to make espresso as they can maintain a 70 cc/mn flowrate at 9 bars without any complex trick around it to get as close as possible without being able to really get there.
@Bloodysugar I tested my small Dolce Gusto machine with reusable capsules that have special valve that increases the pressure (more crema). 92 ml of coffee in 25 seconds, so 220 cc/min. The one you mentioned puhses out 255 cc/min, which would be very close. Which means that vibration pumps are basically just as good as the rotary ones, but well, they are loud. Medium grind, iCafillas V3 Dolce Gusto capsule, packed in pretty tightly.
@@michahalczuk9071 What Dulce Gusto model has a rotary pump ? With such flow it sounds pretty likely your machine comes with an Ulka E5. By the way the only valve it needs is an overflow to deriviate the excess of pressure as such pump can deliver up to 15 bars.
@@Bloodysugar it doesn't have rotary pump, sorry I didn't make it clear! It has tiny vibration pump and I wanted to test it's throughput. I will test my other manual espresso machine with a little finer ground coffee.
@@Bloodysugar The other machine, also with vibratory pump, made 76g of espresso in 24 seconds (it turns off after that, semi automatic). 51 mm portafilter, double shot, fine dense ground, metal screen on top, double wall filter. =190cc/min Looks like your estimate for vibratory pumps was way off :)
Thanks! I have a problem that the Z5 don't fill up with water (fill system) pump activates and humms for ~10seconds and then stops, stills showing Fill system after that. I think all water ends up in the tray Is that pump membrane or valve problem you think? /Stefan
Thank you for this video and excellent demonstration on how to open the side panels. I have the exact same model ENA Micro 9 and am getting code ERROR 8. I was able to remove the side panels and did a good cleaning of the coffee ground build-up inside but I still did not get it to work with the initial rinse that usually comes after powering on. I suspect that the brewer group needs repair or replacement. Do you have have a video on how to remove the brewer group in ENA Micro 9? Do you sell the guides mentioned in this video as well as the new brewer group replacement unit of the Micro 9? I am looking forward to hear from you. Thank you!
