Care and cleaning

Cleaning the Motor Housing and Hoppers

Make sure the Burr Coffee Mill is switched off and unplugged before cleaning.

Do not immerse the motor housing in water.

To avoid damage to the Burr Coffee Mill, do not immerse the cutting burrs, burr-shaft assembly, or face-plate assembly in water. Keep them dry at all times.

To avoid damaging the finish, do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.

Wipe the motor housing and cord with a clean damp cloth. Dry with a soft cloth.

Wash the coffee bin, bean hopper, and hopper lid in hot soapy water, then rinse and dry.

The bean hopper, hopper lid, and coffee bin can also be washed in the top rack of a dishwasher.

Cleaning the Cutting Burrs

If the mill is used frequently, the cutting burrs need to be cleaned every few weeks for best performance. Cleaning enables the burrs to achieve the finest, most consistent grinds possible – which is especially important when grinding coffee for espresso.

Foreign objects – like pebbles or twigs – sometimes find their way into whole bean coffee. These objects may cause the mill to jam. If this happens, follow the burr-cleaning procedure to remove the foreign material.

1.Make sure the mill is switched off and unplugged. Remove the coffee bin and bean hopper from the mill.

2. Using a flat-head screwdriver, turn the

 

 

two faceplate screws counter-clockwise

 

until the faceplate assembly is free.

ENGLISH

(The faceplate screws have retaining

 

clips that prevent them from being

 

removed from the faceplate assembly.)

 

 

 

3.Slowly slide the faceplate assembly away from the motor housing. A separate burr-shaft assembly on the inside of the motor housing will usually slide out with the faceplate assembly. Place a hand under the burr-shaft assembly to keep it from falling as the faceplate assembly is removed. If the burr-shaft assembly does not slide out with the face-plate assembly, tap to loosen and grasp the center shaft of the burr-shaft assembly and remove it from the housing.
