bean container with 3 to 4 tablespoons of coffee beans. Set the grind
amount selector (I) to approximately number "4." Make sure the ground
coffee container (F) with its lid (G) is in place. Push the on-button (J).
Repeat the same procedure in a different fineness position (e.g. number
"3"). You are now ready to begin using your grinder regularly.
GRINDING
1. Place your Capresso Burr Grinder on a flat, level surface such as a
countertop.
2. Place the cover of the ground coffee container on the ground coffee
container (F). Note: If the cover of the ground coffee container is not
secured correctly, ground coffee can blow out of the ground coffee
container during grinding, spreading grinds over your countertop.
Place the ground coffee container with its lid into the grinder until it
snaps into place.
3. Plug the grinder into an outlet.
4. Fill the bean container (B)
with coffee beans and replace the lid. The
bean container can hold up to 8 ounces of coffee beans. Note: Only
coffee beans should be filled into the bean container. Never
fill any
of the following into the bean container: sugar-coated beans, syrups
or other coatings, and instant coffee. Never fill water or any other
liquid into the bean container.
5. Set the grind amount selector (I)
to the number of cups of coffee you
want to grind for by sliding the grind amount selector (I) above the
correct number. These numbers are to be used as a guide. The
amount of ground coffee varies quite a bit depending on how coarse
or fine you grind and whether you use light, dry beans or dark, oily
beans. After grinding a few times, you will find the correct grind
amount position for the amount of coffee you want to grind.
6. Set the fineness selector (C)
to the desired setting (see Section
"Guidelines for Fineness Selector Settings"). Caution: Never change
the fineness selector setting while grinding!
7. Push the On-Button (J)
to start your Capresso grinder. The grinder
will begin, grinding the coffee directly into the ground coffee container.
It will stop automatically. Attention: Beans may stick to the wall of
the bean container, preventing them from falling into the burrs. You
will hear a high-pitched noise from the motor when this happens.
Gently shake the grinder so that the beans slide down into the burrs.
Note: If you need to turn the grinder off before the grinding cycle is
finished, slide the grind amount selector to the "OFF" position.
8. Be sure to unplug the appliance after every use.
Note: Coffee beans can stay in the bean container for up to 2 weeks
before they will start to lose their aroma.
