Troubleshooting The Problem of Water Not Flowing Cuisinart EM 200

1. Water is not dripping out of the machine.

Check the water level of the reservoir. If the water level is low or there is no water in the supply unit then add water to it. Pull out the lid and directly fill the reservoir or you can also remove the reservoir to fill the unit manually. Close the lid of the reservoir after filling the water.

2. Clogging of coffee beans or coffee grounds.

To get rid of the clogging, fill the supply with a small quantity of water, and rotate it to take out all the residuals. Turn over the coffee maker to throw away all the water and the coffee ground which was stuck in the channel. But if the hose will not get clear by doing this then you'll need to replace it.

3. No-water indication yet the reservoir is full of water.

This problem occurs due to the water sensor under the EM200. There you'll find three special screws that possess this flow sensor inside them. It's a Hall effect transistor but the issue is caused by a small magnet in the small turbine present inside the sensor. You need to open it, take out the small magnet, and make a hole from one side to the other. After that, you'll need to stick the small magnet on the topmost side, near to the sensor. It will start working again.

4. Water is not flowing through the portafilter.

To resolve this issue, before filling the coffee grounds in the filter run a few cycles of water through the filter basket and ensure that it is dripping out. After checking the filter, dry it properly, and then fill the coffee grounds. It is usually recommended to use the double filter basket rather than the single filer.

Final Verdict:

Although all the basic troubleshooting for the problem that Cuisinart EM 200 water is not flowing is safe, you might need some extra help from Cuisinart if your EM 200 requires an electrical repair or a part replaced. If this is the case then do not try to resolve the problem by yourself as injuries could happen. All the serious repairing issues must be taken to Cuisinart's outlet or an authorized service agent.
