FORTÉ™ AP/BG MANUAL
August, 2022 (v4)
8
ADJUSTING A PRESET:
The Forté is equipped with three programmable presets for both weight (1=15g, 2=30g, 3=60g) and time (1=10s,
2=15s, 3=30s). To overwrite and save a new preset, follow the instructions below:
1.
Press either the weight mode
(12)
or time mode
(13)
buttons for changing either a weight or time preset,
respectively.
2.
Use the grind adjustment buttons
(10)
to adjust the weight (in grams) or time (in seconds) to the desired
amount.
3.
Press and hold a grind preset button
(15)
until the display flashes once to save the amount to that preset.
These presets will be saved even if the grinder is unplugged.
TROUBLESHOOTING ERROR CODES:
The following codes may appear on the display to indicate that there is an operation error.
Err 001:
Indicates that the weight on the scale is above the desired target weight. The display will alternate between
flashing ERR/001 and the weight mode button
(12)
.
• If there is already ground coffee in the grounds bin above the target weight, or if the scale is tared before placing
the grounds bin on the grinder, this error will occur.
• This error can be cleared by pressing the weight mode button to tare the scale, or by emptying the grounds bin.
Err 002:
Indicates that the load cell has not seen a substantial increase in weight in a few seconds during grinding.
• This may indicate that either coffee is not being ground, or that coffee is being ground more slowly than expected.
• Ensure that the bean hopper
(2)
is rotated into place clockwise to engage the top interlock switch and that the bean
shut-off knob
(3)
is in the open position.
• If the hopper is in place and open, the motor is engaging, but no coffee is being ground, a clog may have formed.
Please check the Troubleshooting page on Baratza.com for information on clearing clogs.
• Some different varieties and roasts of coffees may grind more slowly than others. If this seems to be the case, this
error can be cleared by pressing the start button, and then grinding can be resumed by pressing the start button
again.
Err 003:
Indicates that the scale is registering a weight value that exceeds the maximum load.
• This most likely means the grounds bin is jammed on top of the scale platform
(9)
, or there is excessive weight
placed on the scale platform.
• Remove the bin from the scale and replace it, ensuring that it rests evenly on the scale platform and does not
contact other parts of the grinder. The error will clear automatically.
Err 004:
Indicates that the display is not receiving signal from the scale.
• This likely means that there is damage to the loadcell or that the loadcell wire is unplugged internally.
• Please contact Baratza Support for further troubleshooting steps and solutions.
