Why is no coffee pouring from my Sunbeam Coffee Maker?
- F

  If no coffee is pouring, ensure that the water reservoir is filled. Run water through the machine without a filter basket to ensure it is fully primed. The group head may also be blocked. Also, the dual wall filter baskets may be blocked - use the cleaning pin to unblock the filter basket. The coffee grounds might be too fine or tamped down too hard. Empty the filter basket and rinse under water to clean. Wipe the group head with a cloth. Refill the filter with grinds and tamp.

  An unusual noise from the pump could indicate that there's no water in the reservoir, so fill it up. Also, make sure the water reservoir is correctly positioned firmly into the back of the unit. Check for and remove the red plug from the packaging found at the base of the water reservoir.

  If there's no steam from the steam wand, the steam wand tip may be blocked. Also, check that there is water in the water reservoir and fill it if needed. Run hot water through the steam wand to ensure water flows.

What to do if Sunbeam Coffee Maker espresso tastes burnt?
- P
  patrickjacobAug 26, 2025
  If your espresso tastes burnt, it could be due to the type of coffee you're using; try different brands. It may also happen if you use the steam function just before pouring an espresso shot. Allow time for the thermoblock to purge steam and cool down before pouring a shot of espresso. The STEAM light should have finished flashing and the READY light should be fully illuminated.

What to do if Sunbeam MINI BARISTA EM4300S Coffee Maker coffee pours out in drips?
- G
  George MurphyAug 28, 2025
  If your coffee pours out in drips, it could be because the grinds are too fine. Change to a coarser grind. It might also be that the coffee is tamped too hard; tamp the grinds more lightly.

Why is the group handle coming off my Sunbeam MINI BARISTA EM4300S Coffee Maker during espresso pour?
- A
  Angela BellAug 31, 2025
  If the group handle comes off during espresso pour, it may not be attached correctly or tightened enough. Ensure all three tabs of the group handle are fully inserted into the group head and rotated to the center position. The coffee grind may be too fine - change to a coarser grind. The coffee grinds might be tamped too hard, so tamp the grinds more lightly. Also, ensure the top edge of the filter is free of coffee grinds. Clean around the top edge of the filter and wipe the group head clean. The group head may be dirty, so wipe it with a damp cloth. Clean the seal including the bayonet corner areas with a brush to remove grinds.

Why is there not enough froth when texturing with my Sunbeam Coffee Maker?
- C
  conniehessSep 2, 2025
  If you're not getting enough froth when texturing, ensure the milk being used is fresh. The milk temperature might be too warm; ensure you start texturing with milk that is around 4°C. For best texturing results, use a chilled stainless steel milk jug. If the milk has been boiled, start again with fresh, chilled milk and heat till the jug can only be held for approximately 3 seconds, 60-65°C. If the milk is making bubbles rather than micro-foam, ensure the steam wand tip is positioned correctly just below the surface of the milk. Tap the jug on the benchtop when finished to release larger trapped air bubbles. If the milk is not taking in enough air, keep the steam wand tip just under the surface of the milk to help introduce air and create micro-foam.

Why doesn't my Sunbeam MINI BARISTA EM4300S espresso have any crema?
- V
  Valerie CrawfordSep 5, 2025
  If your espresso doesn't have any crema, the beans may be old, or pre-ground grinds may be dry. Use fresh beans and grinds, and store pre-ground grinds in an airtight container. The grinds might not be compacted enough, so tamp more firmly. Also, the grinds could be too coarse; use a finer grind coffee.

  If your coffee is too cold, the milk may not be heated enough. Ensure that milk is heated properly during texturing, but be sure not to heat too much and boil the milk.
