SYMPTOM

'Fill the bean container' appears but beans were just filled

Appliance: Miele Coffee Machine Models: CM 6360, CM 6560

What This Means

The display shows 'Fill the bean container' even though beans were just added. This is not a fault -- insufficient beans are reaching the grinder, often because oily beans are sticking to the container walls.

🔧 How to Fix

  1. Confirm the message with OK.
  2. Make a coffee and observe whether beans drop into the container properly.
  3. Clean the coffee bean container more often if using darker, oilier beans.
  4. Try other types of coffee beans which are less oily.
