Introduction

Your Krups coffee grinder allows you to grind your own coffee beans right in your own home. With such a variety of coffee beans available in supermarkets and gourmet shops, owning the Fast-Touch Grinder is sophisticated and economical. The best result, however, is that you get fresh coffee, every time!

Light roasted beans seem to be the most popular in North America, and dark roasts have been associated more with the heavier coffees, such as Espresso and Turkish. These dark roast, however, can also be brewed for «regular» coffee.

Coffee beans are also categorized as straight coffees or blends. The straight coffees consist of beans from a single area; blend consist of beans from several areas, which sometimes results in a superior coffee combination.

The best way to familiarize yourself with coffee is to purchase small quantities of several different varieties. Eventually, you will learn which beans and blends suit your personal taste. Perhaps you will soon start blending your own «house blends»!

Operation

•Place the base unit (d) on a sturdy counterhop.

•Fill the grinding chamber (c)1/2 to 3/4with coffee beans (1).

•To calculate the amount of coffee beans to use, keep in mind that whole coffee beans yield the approximate equivalent in ground coffee (i.e. 1/4 cup beans = approx. 1/4 cup groung coffee. Refer to gringing chart for suggested ratios).

•Place the lid (a) on the grinder base (2).

•Plug in the grinder. To start grinding, press the power button (b) (3).

The power will only stay on as long as the button or lid is pressed.

•The degree of fineness you desire will decide how long you should grind. For example, a coarse grind would require less grinding time than a find grind.

Caution

Wait until the blades have completely stopped before removing lid. Grinder should be unplugged before removing lid.

•When grinding is complete, unplug the unit. Carefully remove the lid and pour the ground coffee into a bowl or cannister. If you are grinding a large amount of beans, store the coffee in an airtight container.
