Cleaning & Maintenance

Before Use

1. Avoid deep-roasted or oily beans, which can leave residue and clog the grinder over time, causing motor strain.
2. Do not use frozen or coated beans, as moisture can lead to clogging.
3. Avoid adding liquid flavorings or syrups to beans, as they can damage the grinder.
4. Add no more than 250g of beans at a time to prevent moisture buildup.
5. Ensure the bean hopper lid is securely closed to prevent water from entering.

1. Keep objects out of the water tank and always cover it after adding water.
2. Use either a permanent filter or a paper filter, not both.
3. Align the filter handle away from the grinder to ensure proper coffee flow.
4. Add the amount of water that matches your selected cup size to avoid overly diluted coffee.

During Use

1. To switch to a coarser setting, rotate the Grind Regulator directly.
2. For a finer setting:
   1. If no beans are in the grinder, rotate directly.
   2. If beans are present, either grind them before adjusting or rotate the regulator while grinding to prevent damage.

1. Do not open the Swing-out Filter Basket during brewing, as steam may interfere with the grinder.
2. The carafe can be removed briefly while brewing; replace within 30 seconds to avoid overflow.

After Use

• Clean the machine as instructed on page 16, steps 19-29 of section "5.2 Operation."

1. Empty as many beans as possible from the hopper and store them.
2. Remove and dry the filter insert, drip stop, and filter ring.
3. Clean the coffee carafe and wipe all parts with a cloth.

Every 15 Days or 100 Uses:

• Mineral buildup from water can affect performance and flavor. Clean with a descaling agent regularly.

1. Descaling reminders appear after 30 brewing or grinding cycles.
2. Use a descaler solution, descaling tablet, or white vinegar mixed with warm water.
3. Follow your descaler’s instructions to descale.

1. Empty the beans from the hopper.
2. Clean the powder outlet with a brush.
3. Prepare a descaling solution (10 cups of water + 33g of descaler).
4. Run a descaling cycle, then rinse with clean water 2-3 times.
5. Wash and dry all accessories.
