No they never said zauberbiest don't have powers. The only zauberbiest we have seen is Sean. He has never shown even the smallest use of magic. He told Juliette she is more then he will ever be. (before it was even established she was super powerful) .He also explained that zauberbiest are different from hexenbiest. He could not even open the book.

We know Adalind's mom has magic. Adalind took her skeleton key. Adalind has always been able to move things. That has how she has always checked her powers. The only hexenbiest we have no evidence of magic is Frau Pech.

Sean mom can stop time and raise the dead, yet Sean shows no signs of magic. Adalind  does not even come close to that, why would her child have more power then Elizabeth's child.

If we consider what Adalind did could have an effect. Why would the increase abilities when both times her potions where to eliminate abilities. Diana had the Contaminatio Ritual which  was to restore. Juliette had Elizabeth potion to restore. Logic would say since Adalind was reducing powers what she did would have the side effect decrease abilities. Not it have a reverse effect, while the others did not. That is logic of convience.
