    • Jura Giga X8c Professional - Water flow to the brewing unit when using hot water dispenser or flushing the frother

      Hersteller: Jura | Typ-/Modell: Giga X8c Professional | ca. Baujahr: 2016

      Happy holidays folks!

      Recently acquired another two x8c units, and the "fun" with these never ends :)

      While working on one of them I discovered that when you use the hot water dispenser or flushing the frother,
      there is slight water flow from the drainage valve stem that inserts water in the brewing chamber on the brewing unit.
      Swapped the brewing units, and problem persists.
      Would you think that this is the ceramic valve not closing the passage properly?
      I did descale it as well.
      Looks like the CV is fairly new and this machine has "only" 40k preparations. It's not the machine where I had to take drastic measure. and cast the valve block to epoxy :)

      Thanks

    • Hello,

      please no complicated descriptions - if I understand you correctly, water comes out of "I".
      But that would mean that "H" doesn't close properly, or do you mean something else?

      Even if "G" were defective and something came through via "E1/F1" or "E2" and was pushed
      back towards "I" by "G", "H" should hold back the flow if there is no great pressure.

    • Yes, but in this case it really wasn't a big problem - just understand the error description, look at the water flow plan - think about it a little bit and it was the most likely and simplest possible cause.
