You can adjust the grinder to suit the roast of your coffee.
If you adjust the fineness of grind when the grinder is not operating,
the fineness of grind switch could be damaged.
Only adjust the fineness of grind when the grinder is running.
Our recommendations:
Select a fine setting for a light roast.
Select a coarse setting for a darker roast.

a coffee, proceed as follows:
Open the cover of the bean container and remove the aroma
preservation cover.
