Grinding Times, Grinding Spices & Herbs, Cleaning

GRINDING TIMES

When grinding the maximum amount of coffee we recommend to grind for 20 to 30 seconds. For best results grind in 10 second intervals (max. 40g). When the blade stops rotating, tap the grinder lightly, then start grinding again. This will minimize the amount of coffee clinging to the bottom of the grinding container.

We do not recommend grinding for more than 30 seconds. If you grind longer, your coffee will get warmer and will lose some of its flavor.

GRINDING SPICES & HERBS

You can use your CAPRESSO grinder to grind dry spices and herbs.

How ever, you might experience flavor trans fers which can spoil your coffee taste. We recommend using a second grinder if you grind spices regularly.

CLEANING

•Unplug before cleaning.

•Empty the bean container. Wipe the inside of the container with a damp cloth.

CAUTION: Blade is sharp.

•Wipe the outside housing and the lid with a damp cloth.

NEVER IMMERSE MACHINE IN ANY LIQUID.
