Setup

1. Unboxing: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Ensure all parts listed in the packing contents are present.
2. Placement: Place the grinder on a stable, flat, and dry surface. Ensure adequate clearance around the unit for ventilation and operation.
3. Hopper Assembly: Securely attach the 12 oz bean hopper to the top of the grinder. Ensure it is properly seated and locked into place to prevent beans from spilling.
4. Power Connection: Plug the power cord into a suitable 120 Volts electrical outlet.
5. Initial Grind Setting: For initial use, set the stepless grind adjustment knob to a medium-coarse setting suitable for your preferred slow-brew method (e.g., drip or pour-over). Fine adjustments can be made during operation.

Operating Instructions

1. Filling the Hopper: Lift the hopper lid and pour fresh coffee beans into the 12 oz hopper. Replace the lid securely.
2. Adjusting Grind Size: Turn the micrometric adjustment knob to select your desired grind fineness. Turning clockwise typically results in a finer grind, while counter-clockwise results in a coarser grind. Make small adjustments and test the grind to achieve optimal results for your brewing method.
3. Dosing: Place the Hand Brew dosing cup or your portafilter (if compatible) under the grind chute.
4. Grinding: Press and hold the grind button located on the front of the unit. The grinder will operate as long as the button is held down, allowing for manual, on-demand dosing. Release the button to stop grinding.
5. Collecting Grounds: Once grinding is complete, remove the dosing cup or portafilter. Tap gently to settle the grounds before brewing.

Maintenance

2. Hopper and Lid: Remove the bean hopper and lid. Wash them with warm, soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry completely before reattaching.
3. Grind Chute: Use a brush or vacuum cleaner to remove any residual coffee grounds from the grind chute.
4. Burr Cleaning: The Filtro Silent features bottom-burr adjustment for easier cleaning. Consult the full user manual for detailed instructions on removing and cleaning the burrs. Ensure burrs are dry before reassembly.
