Bean Counter

The built-in bean counter measures relative usage of its Grind’n Brew® machine by totaling the amount of seconds the augers have fed beans into the grinder. This number directly correlates to the amount of beans used by the machine.

Depending on model, the bean counter is either always shown or hidden to the user.

The Bean Counter Menu is accessed by holding the UP and DOWN keys for 5 seconds. If the counter is normally hidden, it will be shown here. The user can reset the counter through this menu. Pressing the SET button will display “REs” and the user can select “YEs” or “no” with the UP and DOWN keys. Pressing the SET key finalizes the selection. This menu times out after 10 seconds and is disabled by the User Lockout Jumper.

User Settings

The Grind’n Brew® has several factory-set options that can be modified by the user. These are divided into two categories: Universal Settings or Brew Settings. Universal Settings pertain to the whole unit, and Brew Settings pertain to one of the four available brew cycles – (Regular Full, Regular Half, Decaf Full and Decaf Half). All settings are retained during a power loss. The original factory settings can be restored by using the System Restore Function.

Pulse Brew Cycle

Pulse Brewing is a feature that increases the control and performance of the Grind’n Brew® machine. By pulsing water during the brew cycle, you allow greater contact time and better extraction of the coffee. Ultimately you will achieve a bolder and more consistent cup of coffee by using this feature.

If pulse brewing is selected, the unit will brew the number of pulses identified by the Pulse Brew Pulses setting. Each pulse is identical. It will begin by dumping water for the Pulse Brew Pour Time and then wait for the Pulse Brew Delay Time. This will repeat until all pulses are finished.

Once the pulses are complete, the unit will pour water for the remaining Brew Time. Brew Time is the total amount of time water is poured over the coffee grinds. Pulse Brew Pour Times are included in this total. Pulse Brew Delay Times are not included. The cycle will always stop pouring once the Brew Time is met, regardless of whether this happens in the middle of pulse brewing.

Drip Time is half of the Brew Time. However, the Drip Time will never be greater than 1:30.
