to turn the calibration screw in
toward the finer direction until you
hear the motor start to slow. If you
want a coarser grind, insert the
tool and turn the opposite direc-
tion of the arrow on the tool. If you
do not have a Baratza tool you
can substitute with a 2mm Allen
wrench. Determine direction to
turn while looking from the base of
the grinder up.
Use the burr calibration tool while the
grinder is running.

Scale Calibration

If the display is showing "EEE",
"out", or the grinder is over or un-
derdosing coffee, the scale needs
to be calibrated. To calibrate the
scale you need a 200 gram weight.
To "create" a 200 gram weight,
place the Forté grounds bin on
TM
a separate scale and add whole
coffee beans until the scale reads
200 grams (total weight of bin and
coffee beans). Keep your "200
gram weight" handy. Now unplug
the Forté and make sure there
TM
is nothing on the scale platform.
Plug the Forté
it powers on hold buttons M and
WEIGHT until a value between
1500-3000 is displayed. Then
press Button M, the display will
read "cal". Gently set the 200 gram
weight onto the platform. The dis-
play will flash "pas" and then show
the total weight of the bin and cof-
fee beans (it should read 200). Af-
ter removing the bin the ON screen
will show 0.0. Empty the beans.
Then press start to bring the grind-
er to the "home screen" then place
the bin back on scale and press
tare (T). The scale is now calibrat-
ed . Please e-mail us at support@
baratza.com if you have problems
calibrating the scale.
