ADJUSTING THE CONVERTIBLE DEVICE ARMS & PORTAFILTER HOOK:
To convert the device holder to the portafilter holder position, push in on the right
arm
and swing it down and to the left until it clicks into position (fig. A). To return to the
original position, push in on the right arm and rotate to the right and up until it clicks
into place (fig. B). The left arm will automatically move into position as the right arm is
moved.
When grinding directly into a portafilter, you must first convert the arms to portafilter
holder position and swing the hook to the front. The hook is designed to support the
top lip of your portafilter while the arms support the bottom of your portafilter. It is
imperative that the hook is adjusted so that the portafilter sits level. To adjust the
hook, loosen the 2mm hex screw that sits below the hook, adjust the portafilter hook
up or down, and tighten screw once in the proper position. After adjusting the hook,
run a test grind. If the portafilter does not sit level through the grinding process, further
adjustments may be needed.
ADJUSTING THE GRIND SETTING
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 recommend running the motor 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.
RECOMMENDED INITIAL 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 the degree of roast (light vs. dark), freshness,
humidity, type of bean, oil content, etc. As such, there is no exact correct setting for any brewing method. Baratza
recommends starting with our suggested settings and adjusting to taste from there. For espresso, we recommend 9E.
For drip, we recommend 20E. With use, you will determine the setting that is right for your taste, brewing style, and your
favorite beans.

personal taste.

Warning: The Sette grinds at a very high speed, so be careful not to overfill the portafilter or
bin! If a mound of coffee backs up into the chute it will clog the grinder. Unclogging requires
thorough manual cleaning.
