SETTE™ 270 MANUAL

SETTING THE GRIND CONTROL

The Sette has two different adjustments. The macro adjust makes large adjustments from 1-31, while the stepless micro 

adjust allows for small adjustments to fine-tune. We always recommend the motor be on when making micro or macro 

grind adjustments. It’s best to start with your micro adjustment at “E”, and dial in the macro as close to the desired grind as 
possible, then adjust the micro as needed. 

Below are the best practices for making accurate and repeatable grind adjustments: 

1. 

Press preset 1, then the start/pause button

2.  Rotate the macro setting until close to the desired grind size
3. 

Pull bin out and check the particle size. If the particle size is close to what you desire, 

 

use the micro setting to fine-tune 

4. 

Allow 1-2 seconds more run time, and discard the ground coffee. This small amount of waste is called a 
purge, and is crucial in making sure all the ground coffee used is from the same setting.

5. 

Grind full dose

6.  Brew and repeat above steps as needed

STARTING SETTINGS

The macro settings shown in the table below can be used as a general guideline for starting points*. The actual particle size 
for a particular setting will vary depending on many factors including: degree of roast (light vs. dark), freshness, humidity, 
type of bean, oil content, etc. With use, you will determine the setting that is right for your taste, brewing style, and your 
favorite beans.

Espresso

AeroPress

V-60

Drip brew

Chemex

3-9

10-15

13-18

15-25

20-31

*If you find that your preferred setting is outside of this range, there is no need 

 

to be concerned, grind to your personal taste.

Warning: The Sette grinds at a very high speed, be careful not to overfill your portafilter or 

bin! If a mound of coffee backs up into the chute it will clog the grinder. Unclogging requires 

thorough manual cleaning, for details, see page 8.
