4.3 Grinding Process

1. Load Beans: Open the lid and pour up to 30g of whole roasted coffee beans into the bean hopper. Close the lid.
2. Attach Handle: Ensure the crank handle is securely attached to the grinder shaft.
3. Grind: Hold the grinder body firmly with one hand and rotate the crank handle clockwise with the other. Continue grinding until all beans have passed through the burrs and collected in the grounds container.
4. Retrieve Grounds: Unscrew the grounds container from the bottom of the grinder body to access your freshly ground coffee.

5. Maintenance and Cleaning

Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and longevity of your grinder.

1. Disassembly: Unscrew the grounds container. The grinder body can be further disassembled by removing the crank handle and carefully separating the top section from the burr assembly.
2. Cleaning Burrs: Use the provided cleaning brush or a dry cloth to remove any residual coffee grounds from the ceramic burrs and the interior of the grinder body.
3. Cleaning Grounds Container: The grounds container can be washed with warm soapy water and thoroughly dried.
4. Important: Do not wash the ceramic burrs or the main grinder body with water, as moisture can affect the burr's performance and potentially impact coffee flavor. Ensure all parts are completely dry before reassembly.
5. Reassembly: Reassemble the grinder by reversing the disassembly steps, ensuring all parts are securely fitted.

6. Troubleshooting

• Difficulty Grinding:
  • Ensure the grind setting is not too fine for the beans being used. Very fine settings require more effort.
  • Check for any foreign objects in the bean hopper or burrs.
  • Ensure the crank handle is properly attached.
• Inconsistent Grind:
  • Verify that the grind adjustment ring is securely set and has not shifted during grinding.
  • Ensure the burrs are clean and free of old coffee residue.
• Grinder Jams:
  • This can occur if beans are loaded too quickly or if the grind setting is too fine for the bean type. Try a slightly coarser setting.
  • Disassemble and clean the burrs thoroughly to remove any lodged particles.
