Care and Cleaning

Important Notes:

Spots and marks on the surface of the burrs are part of the hardening process. These marks do not affect the performance of the grinder or the taste of the coffee.

Ensure the coffee grinder is switched off and unplugged from the power outlet prior to cleaning.

Do not immerse the motor base of the coffee grinder in water.

Do not immerse any part of the burr assembly in water or any other liquid.

Do not place any parts of the coffee grinder in the dishwasher.

Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads.

Cleaning the motor base, bean hopper and coffee container

2.Wipe the motor base exterior with a damp cloth and dry.

3.Wash the bean hopper and coffee container in warm soapy water, then rinse and dry.

Cleaning the burrs

If the coffee grinder is used frequently (every day), the burrs need to be cleaned every three weeks to ensure best performance of the coffee grinder. Regular cleaning helps the burrs achieve consistent grinding results, which is especially important when grinding coffee for espresso.

1.Ensure the coffee grinder is switched off and unplugged from the power outlet. Remove the bean hopper from the motor base, push down and turn anti-clockwise. See figure 8.

2.To remove the top burr turn the grind adjustment collar in an anti-clockwise direction until it stops, see figure 14.
