Dear all, the Achille's heel of this machine at least mine has always been the timer of the grinder. After a while, it seems to lose its factory settings and grinds for way way longer than it should. This results in the machine getting clogged because it grinds way too much coffee. I now have to count to 9 and turn the right knob the taste selection knob all the way to the left counterclockwise to stop the grinder manually. The machine has been to the repair shop numerous times. The manual says nothing about this and I cannot find anything anywhere. Thanks
