Why does my Sage Barista Express BES870UK Coffee Maker not run coffee through?
- D
  Dillon ClarkAug 20, 2025
  If your Sage Coffee Maker isn't running coffee through, first, make sure it's properly plugged in and switched on at the power outlet, with the POWER button pressed. If that's not the issue, check if the water tank is empty. Also, ensure that you're using a suitable espresso grind, and that the coffee grind isn't too fine. Finally, make sure that you don't have too much coffee in the filter, and that the coffee isn't tamped too firmly. If the issue persists, the filter might be blocked and needs cleaning.

  If the coffee from your Sage Coffee Maker is too cold, preheat your cups. If you're making a cappuccino or latte, ensure the milk is heated enough. The milk is heated to the correct temperature when the base of the jug becomes too hot to touch.

  If coffee runs out around the edge of the filter holder on your Sage Coffee Maker, ensure the filter holder is properly inserted in the group head. Also, clean any excess ground coffee from the rim of the filter holder to ensure a proper fit into the brew head. Make sure you aren't using too much ground coffee in the filter and that the ground coffee hasn't been tamped too firmly. Finally, ensure you're using the correct filter for the amount of ground coffee used—the small filter for one cup and the larger filter for two cups.

  If no crema is forming when using your Sage Coffee Maker, make sure that the coffee is tamped firmly enough.
