Introduction - Baratza Maestro Operation Manual

T
hank you for purchasing the Maestro Conical Burr Coffee
Grinder. Below are detailed descriptions of the features that
make the Maestro stand out from other grinders in its class.
The slow rotating conical burrs of the Maestro Plus preserve
the aroma and flavor of the freshly ground beans. Forty steps of
adjustment provide the fine tuning needed for Espresso, Drip, and
French Press Coffee.
Innovative burr calibration system:
The range of grind and the accuracy of the settings is truly im-
pressive. The Maestro Plus has 40 distinct settings of grind from
Espresso to French Press. An innovative calibration system al-
lows all the manufacturing tolerances of the grinder to be elimi-
nated, resulting in identical, accurate performance from each
grinder. Furthermore the Maestro Plus ring burr is supported
on three points, providing a stable platform for a more accurate
grind.
The Maestro uses a 240 watt DC motor. The motor spins at less
than one-third the speed of the AC motors used in most home
grinders, making it much quieter and lower in pitch. In addition,
it possesses a thermal safety device that protects the motor from
overheating and automatically resets once the motor cools.
