The Jura 70173 brew unit is an original spare part for Jura ENA Micro and Impressa A series fully automatic coffee machines. If your coffee machine displays error 8 (Störung 8), makes loud unusual noises when moving the brew group, water leaks into the drip tray, or coffee flows very slowly, the cause is typically a worn brew unit. This part solves all these problems – it is fully assembled, ready for immediate replacement and will restore full functionality to your coffee machine.
When does this part need replacing? (Fault symptoms)
The brew unit typically fails when you see any of these symptoms:
- Coffee machine displays error 8 (Störung 8) – brew group is not in correct position, cannot return to home position
- Water leaks into drip tray or under the coffee machine instead of flowing through the coffee
- Coffee flows very slowly, dripping, or does not flow at all even though the machine is working
- Coffee machine makes loud unusual noises (grinding, hissing sound) when moving the brew group, as if something is stuck
- Ejected coffee puck is wet, falls apart and is not a firm dry puck – this indicates pressure loss

Jura coffee machine – Error 8 (Störung 8)
Why does my Jura coffee machine show Error 8?
Error 8 (Störung 8) means the brew unit is not in the correct position.
Typical symptoms:
- Coffee machine does not brew coffee
- Loud noise resembling a drill
- Error message appears repeatedly
The problem develops gradually – first occasional messages, later complete failure. In most cases, the cause is a worn brew unit that cannot return to its home position.
After replacing the brew unit, Error 8 disappears and the coffee machine operates quietly and reliably again.
