Subject: Gaggia Titanium - Brewunit blocked?


Hi,

Just had this machine for 2 days. Today I wanted to try the rinsing program,
but after a while it said 'Brewunit blocked' in the display. The manual says
contact service dept. I can't get the brewunit or the dregdrawer out,
they're jammed :-(

Is there any smart tricks I can try before sending back to the store?
Switching off and on does nothing but it starts making very loud 'clicks'
and then displaying 'Brewunit blocked' again.

I need my coffee! :-)

Regards,
Claus

There may be a solution, a screw in the brewhead can be removed
allowing one to pull it out and -- hopefully reset the machine

At least there is in Saeco.

Morning Claus,

Just had this machine for 2 days. Today I wanted to try the rinsing
program,

Go to www.servicesunlimited.com and look through his web site. There
you'll find the procedure for unlocking the Gaggia Titanium with
pictures.

Good luck.

Regards,

Ken Fivella

Thanks a lot,

You mean http://www.partsguru.com/ right? (Googled for Services unlimited
and Gaggia and they came up) - the other http adress doesn't seem right..

Great guides on that page for removing the brewunit - unfortunately the
brewunit in the Gaggia Titanium is a little different than the ones
pictured, but i think I got it allright. But - I'm afraid to void the
warranty if I do something stupid ;-) Are there anywhere I can find info
specific on the Gaggia Titanium and a jammed brewunit?

But thanks both for your help, you have been most helpful :-=)

regards,
claus
