Introduction
Go to step 1 ↓This guide shows the removal of the grinder in a Saeco Moltio. The ceramic grinder is the same on newer models from Saeco - Philips - Gaggia. If only the grinding burrs are dull, you can replace them. If only the motor is defective, you can replace it. If the grinder is completely defective, you can replace the entire unit.
