Baratza Maestro Plus manual Adjustable Self Timer, Front Mounted Pulse Button

Adjustable Self Timer

The Maestro Plus is equipped with a 60 second timer switch. Each segment around the timer represents about 10 seconds of run time. The grinder switches off automatically once the time has elapsed. If you want to interrupt grinding before the time has elapsed, simply turn the timer switch counterclockwise until the grinder switches off.

The quantity of ground coffee you need depends on the type of bean, coarseness of the grind, brewing method and personal taste. With use, you will find the most suitable settings for your personal taste.

Front Mounted Pulse Button

For short duration grinding, the Maestro Plus is equipped with a front mounted pulse button. It can be used for grinding directly into an espresso-brew-

ing basket. Remove the grounds bin and position the espresso-basket inside the grinder directly below the pulse button (see photo). Push and hold the pulse button to grind. Grinding will stop when the button is released.

Note: It is important that the espresso basket is held below the discharge chute so the coffee powder can free fall into the basket. Holding the basket up tight to the discharge chute will cause coffee to back up and jam your grinder.
