TIPS

-It is best to store coffee beans in a cool, dry place. Beans should be kept in an opaque, airtight container.

-Grind the coffee just prior to preparing it.

Selecting the level of coarseness of your ground coffee.

-Use the coarseness selector dial (Fig. 5) to adjust the grind according to the type of coffee maker.

-Generally, the quicker the water goes through the ground coffee, the finer the ground coffee should be.

A “medium” ground is thus suited to making filter coffee while a “very fine” ground is needed to make an Espresso.

-For the first use, we suggest that you use an intermediate position and then adjust the setting to your taste.

Once you have used the appliance a few times, you will find the ideal grind setting to suit your taste and brewing method.

Important: Do not change the grind setting while the appliance is running.

Suggested Grind Settings: Selecting the number of cups

-Use the cup selector dial (Fig. 4) to program the quantity of ground coffee you want.

-The mill grinds approx. 1 tablespoon of coffee per cup selected.

MAINTENANCE

-To keep all your coffees aroma and to avoid a degradation of the ground coffee, empty the ground coffee holder after each use.

-Always disconnect the grinder from the power supply before cleaning.

-Never place the grinder, power supply cord or plug in water or under running water.

-Do not use strong detergents or abrasive pads to clean the appliance.

-Clean the lids and the ground coffee container in warm, soapy water.

-To remove the upper burr, set the coarseness selector dial (Fig. 5) to the fine position then take hold of the top of the burr of the upper mill with your fingers and turn clockwise, then pull it vertically to remove.

-Carefully clean the inside of the coffee-bean hopper with a damp cloth.

-To replace the upper burr, set the coarseness selector dial (Fig. 5) to the coarse position, insert the burr and turn it once counter-clockwise.

-Carefully clean the ground coffee dispenser and the body of the appliance with a damp cloth making sure no coffee residue is blocking the ground coffee dispenser.
