The brew group might be clogged, dirty or not well greased. This might keep it from moving into the right position to brew coffee.

Remove the brew group and rinse it with fresh water. Pay extra attention to the filter on the brew group

Not enough coffee beans

After ginding coffee beans, there might not be enough coffee powder to brew a coffee. When the espresso machine measures a
low amount of coffee in the brew group, it will throw away the coffee powder and prompt a message stating the coffee bean
container is empty. Fill your coffee bean container and try again.
