4.4 Static and RDT
Please be aware, static charge may be present during grinding when new. This
will decrease as the grinder is seasoned however some static retention may exist
within the cup during and after grinding as a result of the magnet placed in the
base of the cup. The amount of static may vary depending on some external
factors, such as your location humidity, burrs seasoning status and the type of
coffee beans.
In order to reduce static retention while grinding, we recommend to use the RDT
“Ross Droplet Technique” as per the instructions below:
1) Measure your dose into the dosing cup as per your brew requirement.
2) Take the 5mL water spray “RDT” bottle and ensure it is filled with filtered
water.
3) Spray 2-3 sprays into the dosing cup directly onto the beans.
4) Cover the cup with your hand and shake the beans so as to disperse the
water droplets throughout the coffee beans evenly coating the surface in a
small amount of water droplets.
5) Pour your dose into the hopper as per normal grinding.
6) Wipe your grinds cup free of any excess water droplets before commencing
grinding.
7) Place your dosing cup onto the dock and begin grinding as per normal.
8) In order to ensure a cleanliness of the grinder after using the “RDT”, be sure
to wipe the hopper and dosing cup dry with a paper towel or dry soft cloth.
4.5 Hopper Bellows
A silicone cleaning bellows has been supplied with the Varia VS3 and this
is used for cleaning any remaining grounds or chaff out of the hopper, burr
chamber and ground chute.
1) Remove the hopper lid and place this into the hopper bellows top side
which is marked with the Varia VS3 logo (this will push into the groove made
for the lid and become secured).
2) Next, place the hopper bellows bottom side on top of the hopper rim
and make sure it fits properly around the diameter and creates a seal the
gently push and release the hopper bellows up and down from the top
with you hand. (This will create a small vacuum and force air through the
grinding system in order to quickly clean any loose grounds/chaff left in the
chamber).
PLEASE NOTE: Varia recommends that the bellows are only used for cleaning
the hopper as described above, using as a hopper extension however,
is at users discretion.
