Before First Use

1. Read all instructions and important safeguards.

3. Take care to keep the electrical components on the exterior of the coffee grinder dry. Wipe the exterior of the coffee grinder and inside the Bean Hopper with a damp cloth.
4. Remove the Hopper by slowly twisting it in a counter-clockwise direction to align the indicator line on the clear plastic with the dot on the grinder. Lift the Bean Hopper from the grinder.
5. Wash the Hopper, Lid, and Ground Coffee Collector with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly, then replace onto the grinder.

Note:

• Never attempt to disassemble the coffee grinder
• Never immerse the grinder, power cord or plug in water.
• Always take care not to allow electrical components to come into contact with water.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads of any kind on the appliance. This will cause damage to the finish and may create a risk of electrical shock.
• Any other servicing should be performed by Aroma Housewares.

To Clean

1. Unplug the grinder from the wall.
2. Wipe the exterior of the grinder with a damp cloth.
3. Remove any remaining beans from the Hopper. Remove the Hopper by slowly twisting it in a counter-clockwise direction to align the indicator line on the clear plastic with the dot on the grinder. Lift the Bean Hopper from the grinder.
4. Wash the Hopper, Lid, and Ground Coffee Collector with warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
5. Remove the upper cone burr on the grinder by lifting it straight up. Use the Cleaning Brush to remove any loose coffee residue, as well as brush the lower burr mounted in the grinder.
6. Reassemble the burr by lining up the three bulges on the burr with the three slots in the holder, push into place.
7. Replace the Hopper by lining up the indicator line with the dot, then turning clockwise into position.
8. NOTE: you do not need to clean the grinder after each use.

Always unplug the grinder and allow it to cool completely before cleaning.

Tips

• Keep the Bean Hopper Lid sealed to keep the coffee beans fresh for best aroma.
• Fill the desired amount of coffee beans for each use to keep them fresh. Leaving excess beans in the Hopper will result in less delicious coffee.
• For Filter/Drip coffee, use a coarse Grind Setting.
• For a coffee pot, use medium Grind Setting.
• For espresso, use fine Grind Setting.
• If the grinder is used daily, clean the burrs every few weeks.
• Always make sure the Ground Coffee Collector is fully inserted into the grinder. If it is not in place, the grinder will not work.

Note:

• To manually stop grinding, press the Power Button.
• For help on which fineness setting to choose, see "Grinding Table".

To Grind Coffee

1. Plug grinder into an available 120V AC wall outlet.
2. Remove the Lid and pour in the desired amount of roasted coffee beans. Replace the Lid.
3. Push the Ground Coffee Collector into the grinder all of the way. If it is not inserted, the machine will not work.
4. Rotate the Bean Hopper to choose the grinding level.
5. Adjust the Cup Amount Setting to the desired amount. You should grind only for the amount of cups you wish to prepare and not more, as coffee is always better freshly ground.
6. Press the Power Button to start grinding the coffee beans. It will automatically stop once the amount selected is reached. Or, you can stop grinding manually by pressing the Power Button again.
7. Remove the Ground Coffee Collector and use it to make your coffee.

Grinding Table

Note:

• Do not change the grindsetting while the appliance is running

Helpful Hints:
For the first use, we suggest that you use an intermediate position and then adjust the grind setting to your taste. Once you have used the appliance a few times, you will find the ideal grind setting to suit your taste and brew method.
