Regular cleaning ensures optimal performance and longevity of your OutIn Fino grinder.

1. Cleaning the Burr

• The 38mm heptagonal conical burr is made from high-hardness 420 stainless steel.
• IMPORTANT: DO NOT RINSE WITH WATER. Water can damage the internal components and lead to rust.
• Use the included cleaning brush air blower to remove residual coffee grounds from the burr and grinding chamber.
• The inner burr is detachable using the provided hex key for thorough cleaning. Carefully unscrew the central screw, remove the burr, clean, and reassemble.

2. External Cleaning

Wipe the exterior of the grinder with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse the device in water.

Troubleshooting

• Grinder not starting: Check battery level and ensure the device is charged.
• Beans not grinding/clogging: Gently shake or tap the grinder during operation. The anti-clog reversal feature should activate automatically. If not, clear any blockages manually after ensuring the device is off.
• Inconsistent grind: Ensure the grind setting dial is securely set and not accidentally moved during operation. Shake or tap the grinder to help beans feed evenly.
• Excessive static: Use the included air blower with brush to clear static-clung grounds.
