Cleaning The Grounds Bin, Hopper And Burrs; Replacing The Ring Burr - Baratza Encore Operation Manual

Cleaning the Grounds Bin, Hopper and Burrs

Wash the grounds bin, hopper, and the hopper lid in warm soapy water, then
rinse and dry.
If the grinder is used daily, the burrs (steel or ceramic) should be cleaned at least
every few months using tablets (see below for Automatic Cleaning) or with a
stiff brush. Proper cleaning enables the burrs to achieve the most consistent
grind possible. Cleaning also removes some coffee oils, which will stale and
degrade the flavor of the ground coffee.
Caution
Do not put the bean hopper, hopper lid,
ground coffee bin, or PortaHolder in the
dishwasher. Hand wash only. Do not
immerse the grinder housing in water.
Do NOT wash the burrs with water.
