==Cleaning & Maintenance==
+
===Cleaning Coffee System===
+
 
+
The coffee brewing system can be rinsed at any time through the maintenance menu of the machine. This does not need to be done on a particular schedule, because the machine should automatically prompt you when to complete the cleaning cycle. It is, however, necessary to run the cycle when the machine prompts you and should not be neglected. If this maintenance cycle is neglected unpleasant flavors can develop in the brewed drinks. The recommended cleaning product for this cycle is [https://www.wholelattelove.com/jura-capresso-2-phase-cleaning-tablets Jura-Capresso 2-Phase Cleaning Tablets].
+
 
+
===Rinsing Milk System===
+
 
+
A rinse of the milk system should be completed any day that the machine is used to make a milk based drink. The dual spout milk dispensing system must be cleaned regularly with Jura Milk System Cleaner in order to maintain proper function. Depending on how the machine is programmed, the machine may not automatically prompt you to complete this cycle.
+
 
+
===Dual Spout Cleaning===
+
 
+
The milk spout assembly must be taken apart for cleaning any day that the machine was used to make milk based drinks to maintain machine function and keep the parts sanitary. The disassembly and cleaning instructions for this spout can be found in the video below: {{#ev:youtube|https://youtu.be/eHWLL26uq1A|480|center}}
+
 
+
===Changing Water Filter===
+
 
+
This machine uses a Clearyl Smart water filter automatically prompts you on when to change the water filter. Instructions for activating and installing this filter can be found on pp.39-40 of the machine manual. Use of this filter means that you do not have to descale the machine.
+
 
+
===Descaling===
+
 
+
The machine will automatically prompt you to descale. Descaling is not required if the Clearyl Smart filter is installed in the machine. The only descaling product that should be used is [https://www.wholelattelove.com/jura-capresso-descaling-tablets Jura-Capresso Descaling Tablets]. The frequency of descaling will depend on the hardness of the water in the machine. Instructions for descaling the machine can be found on pp.42-44 of the machine manual.
+
 
+
== Troubleshooting ==
+
===No Crema or Bad Tasting Shots===
+
 
+
{{Troubleshooting-Super-No-Crema-Bad-Shots}}
+
 
+
 
+
===Flow Issues===
+
====Milk Flows Poorly/Spits====
+
 
+
If the milk spout is flowing incorrectly or milk is spraying out then the milk spout is dirty and needs to be cleaned. Run a [[#Rinsing Milk System|milk circuit cleaning cycle]] and disassemble the [[#Dual Spout Cleaning|spout for cleaning]]. Additionally since the Z6 features more temperature options for the milk frothing function the temperature may be set too high. If cleaning does not resolve the behavior try lowering the temperature setting.
+
 
+
====Little No Water/Steam From Frother====
+
 
+
If very little water or steam is coming from the frothing wand, then the connector may be blocked by milk residues or scale buildup.
+
#Gently remove the cappuccino frother from the wand.
+
#Unscrew the black connected with the hexagonal hole on the measuring scoop that came with the machine.
+
#Clean the connector.
+
#Reattach the connector and screw it on by hand, and then gently tighten it with the scoop tool. Do not tighten it more than a quarter turn after getting the connector on hand tight or it may damage the part.
+
 
+
====Poor Coffee Flow====
+
 
+
There are a couple of different reasons the coffee could be flowing slowly.
+
 
+
#The coffee grind is set too fine, and the fine coffee particles are blocking the flow of water. Try adjusting the grind to a coarser setting.
+
#The Clearyl filter is blocking the flow of water, and may be due for replacement.
+
#There is scale buildup in the system and the machine should be [[#Descaling|descaled]].
+
 
+
===Empty Drip Tray Won't Clear===
+
 
+
If the "Empty drip tray" error will not clear then the metal contacts on the drip tray are dirty or wet. Wipe the contacts off and dry them thoroughly before reinserting the tray into the machine.
+
 
+
===Error 2/Error 5===
+
 
+
The machine was exposed to cold or freezing conditions, and the machine will not operate until the machine has reached room temperature.

Install It

  1. Find a swanky spot in your home for your new machine to live, preferably where the morning sun shine down on your new, personal barista.
  2. Get the power cord and the accessories out of the box.
  3. Plug the machine directly into an outlet. Don't plug it into surge protectors, extension cords, or timers.
  4. Fill the water tank.

Educate Yourself

There are a few things you should know before heating up your super-auto for the first time to keep the the espresso flowing and the milk frothing. In the video on the right, you'll learn all about recommended roasts, water hardness, grind settings, milk frothing and the brew group—or, as we like to think of it, your super-auto's inner barista.

5 Things New Super Automatic Espresso Machine Owners Should Know



Get the Right Beans

Coffee is all about the caffeine (er... flavor), and super-autos don't disappoint, though, they are a teensy bit picky when it comes to certain roasts. In particular, super-autos are oily-bean-averse, meaning they don't like extra dark or flavored beans, as they tend to gunk up the grinder. Watch the video on the right to learn how to choose the beans of your dreams and keep your grinder clean.

Find the Right Grind

Consistency is key when it comes to grind size. With super-autos, you can just set it and forget it, but it's good to know how to fine tune for your favorite roasts. A good rule of thumb to keep in mind: light roasts and small volumes such as in espresso need a finer grind, while dark roasts and long coffees favor a coarser grind. Watch the video on the right to learn more.
