1. WELCOME
This Burr Grinder uses solid steel conical burrs and a high reduction
motor to grind slowly and precisely from Turkish fine to French Press
coarse. The slow grinding imparts minimal heat on the coffee thus pre-
serving maximum aroma. The safety lock mechanism prevents the
grinder from grinding without the bean container in place. The removable
upper burr makes cleaning easy. We are sure you will find the right
fineness setting for your coffee application. Enjoy!
2. BEFORE INITIAL USE
1. Carefully unpack your grinder and remove all packaging material.
2. Wipe the base, lid and containers with a dry, clean cloth.
3. Lift the upper burr (Fig. 5) and check if the grinding chamber is free
of any foreign objects (Fig. 6).
4. Replace the upper burr. Make sure the soft plastic collar of the

upper burr is in place (Fig. 4)
5. Insert the bean container into the machine (Fig. 2).
6. Place the lid (Fig. 1, A) onto the bean container before turning it to
the desired position. It is easier to turn the bean container back
and forth with the lid in place.
7. Initially only fill a few scoops of coffee beans into the grinder.
Not Dishwasher Safe: The removable upper burr and the soft collar
are not dishwasher safe.
Dishwasher Safe: (top rack only, away from the heating element):
The bean container, the lid, the ground coffee container.
3. HELPFUL HINTS
1. Never grind without the ground coffee container in place! Make
sure that the ground coffee container is completely inserted into the
machine before grinding. Otherwise ground coffee can blow out of
the grinder spout creating a mess on your countertop.
2. Make sure there are no beans in the bean container before removing
it from the machine.
3. When grinding different kinds of beans, only fill the bean container
with the amount you intend to grind. This way you avoid emptying
the bean container.
4. If you need to empty the bean container proceed as follows:
a. Unplug the item,
b. Turn the machine upside down
c. Carefully pour the beans into another receptacle.
5. The finer the grind setting the longer it takes to grind a certain
amount of coffee, e.g. in a very coarse setting the machine will
grind more coffee in 20 seconds than in a very fine setting.

MEDIUM:
• Steam Boiler Espresso Machines.
• Drip Coffee Makers. When using GoldTone Filters use a somewhat
coarser setting; when using Filter Paper try a finer setting.
FINE:
• Espresso pump machines.
• Fully Automatic Coffee Centers (when using ground coffee).
• Stovetop Mocha Machines.
• Manual filters with manual brewing.
EXTRA FINE:
• Some espresso pump machines.
• Manual preparation of Turkish coffee (two finest settings).
Helpful Hints:
• For espresso pump machines and automatic coffee centers: If your
coffee or espresso brews too fast, try finer settings. If your espresso
brews too slow, try coarser settings.
• For French Press: Please follow the instructions of your French Press
coffee maker (after pouring water over the ground coffee, stir thoroughly
to prevent the ground coffee from clogging).
• Dark, oily beans: Grind dark oily beans one or two steps coarser than
medium or light brown beans. In the finest settings it is possible that
oil residue of dark, oily beans clog the feeder channel (See chapter 6
CLEANING).
• Clogging and Overflow: If your coffee making equipment cannot
process the water through the grounds, overflow or clogging might
occur. Choose a coarser grind setting.
6. CLEANING
1. Always unplug the grinder before cleaning.
2. Coffee oils can deposit inside the grinding chamber and become
rancid. Clean the grinding chamber daily (Fig. 6).
3. Clean the upper and lower burr with the brush.
4. Check the feeder channel (Fig. 8) for coffee build up and use the
small brush to push any build up into the ground coffee container.
5. Wipe housing with a soft damp cloth and make sure that all parts
are completely dry before next use.
Important: Never pour water or any other liquid into the grinder.
Please note: Dark oily beans require you to clean the grinding
chamber more often then medium brown non-oily beans.
