Handy hints for grinding coffee beans with the Sunbeam AutoGrinder
•For a good cup of coffee only grind the amount you need for immediate use, as ground coffee quickly loses its flavour and aroma.
•With the Sunbeam AutoGrinder coffee beans can be ground from a range of coarse to a very fine grind. The required coffee grind will be determined by the brewing method used or style of coffee desired. The different brewing methods include;
BREWING METHOD | GRIND |
|
|
Espresso Machines | Fine grind |
|
|
Stove top Espresso | Medium grind |
|
|
Drip Filtered | Medium grind |
|
|
Plunger or Percolator | Coarse grind |
•Do not leave coffee beans or grounds in the open air, for best flavour always store them in an airtight container.
•Excess coffee beans or grounds can be stored in the refrigerator or freezer as by doing so will slow down the rate at which the coffee reacts with the moisture in the air.
•When grinding more than 12 scoops of coffee beans, pour beans into cover, then turn the grinder upside down and lock onto the cover. Be sure to align the arrow on the lid/cover with the ‘unlock’ graphic on the rear of the grinder and turn the cover to the left/lock position.
