*please follow the instructions of your french press coffee maker (after pouring water over the ground coffee, stir thoroughly to prevent the ground coffee from clogging)
**The fineness settings are approximate guidelines. When using dark, oily beans, use the higher numbers of the recommended range; with light, dry beans, use the lowers numbers in the range. Attention: for espresso pump machines: if your espresso brews too fast, try a lower fineness setting. If your espresso brews too slowly, try a higher fineness setting than the ones recommended above.
CLEANING
Always unplug your coffee grinder before cleaning.
•Remove the ground coffee container, its lid, and the bean container lid and clean them in a warm water and mild liquid soap solution. Do not place these
items in the dishwasher.
•Remove ground coffee from the grinder spout (H) with a household brush or a small plastic tool.
•Empty the bean container. The clear part of the bean container can be wiped on the inside and outside with a damp cloth.
•The base of the grinder can be wiped clean with a damp cloth.
Caution: Never immerse the grinder in water or any other liquid. Do not use harsh or abrasive materials to clean the coffee grinder.
