GRINDING TIPS

1. The COARSE grind is generally used for percolators and coffee urns. MEDIUM grind is
used for drip coffee makers and steam-type espresso machines. A FINE grind is used for
espresso machines with an electric pump.
2. Vary the grinding times to suit your taste and type of beans you grind.
3. For the freshest, most flavorful coffee, grind only enough for the pot you are making.
Coffee beans keep up to 2 months in the freezer in an airtight container and can be ground
while still frozen. Coffee grounds left in your grinder can become stale and affect the
flavor of freshly ground coffee. Be sure to clean grinding chamber, blades and cover after
each use.
4. This grinder can only grind dry, brittle foods. It will not grind anything moist, extremely
hard, or gummy such as whole ginger, chocolate, sesame seeds or oily spices such as
cinnamon, cloves or nutmeg. Do not grind peanuts or grains such as wheat, rice, barley,
or dried corn. Attempting to grind any of these foods may damage the unit. Never use it to
chop ice cubes.
5. Freshly ground peppercorns have a strong aroma and taste that may affect the flavor of
coffee beans ground afterward. You may want to purchase a separate grinder if you plan
to grind peppercorns.
