11.1. GENERAL CLEANING
To ensure that the grinder functions
properly, and produces the highest quality
grind possible, the parts that come into
contact with coffee should cleaned
periodically.
General Cleaning guidelines as follows:
• Always turn the main power switch
to the off position ( ).
• Unplug the machine from the
power source.
• Do not submerge the grinder
in water or use power washing
devises.
• The appliance is not to be cleaned
with a water jet.
11.2. BEAN HOPPER CLEANING
In order to properly clean the bean hopper (
), first empty out all remaining beans and
fragments.
To remove the hopper, first close the bean
trap ( ), and then loosen the hopper lock
screw ( ) and lift the hopper straight up.
Clean the hopper ( ) with a moist soft
cloth or with a small amount of water and
soap to eliminate any oily residue from
the beans. Replace the bean hopper (
) following the same steps as the removal
process, but in reverse.
11.3. CLEANING THE COFFEE EXIT
CHUTE
It is very important to maintain the exit
chute ( ) clean of coffee in order to
assure the consistency of the dosis and the
continued functioning of the grinder.
A tubular chute brush should be used for
this cleaning process. Simply inset the
brush up into the mouth of the exit chute (
), carefully twisting the brush to remove
any remaining grounds in the chute.
Caution: Do not force brush too high up the
chute as there is a fragile rubber dosis at
the upper end of the chute. Damage to the
grid can result in less precise dosing. Also,
the dosis button ( ) along with the upper
and lower portafilter holders ( ) should
be wiped periodically to prevent build up of
coffee grounds and oils it is recommending
to clean the out.
