CLEANING THE GROUNDS BIN, HOPPER AND BURRS

Wash the grounds bin, hopper, and the hopper lid in warm soapy water, then rinse and dry. Never wash the burrs or they will
rust. If the grinder is used daily, the burrs should be cleaned every few months with a stiff brush or by using tablets (see
below for Automatic Cleaning). Note that tablets will not clear a clogged grinder. If your grinder is clogged, refer to Clearing a
Clogged Grinder.
Do not put the bean hopper, hopper lid, or grounds bin in the dishwasher. Hand wash only.
Again, Do NOT wash the grind adjustment assembly OR BURRS in water.
CLEARING A CLOGGED GRINDER
If your grinder is not dispensing coffee normally, it could be clogged with coffee powder. This can happen if the grounds bin
or portafilter is allowed to overfill and ground coffee gets backed up into the grounds chute and grinding chamber. It can also
happen with the buildup of coffee powder.
Unclogging the grinder:
1.
Remove the cone burr/adjustment collar assembly (see figures C, D, and E).
2.
Take the adjustment collar assembly in one hand and grab the cone burr and holder with your other hand.
Pull or pry them apart.
3.
The cone burr will have compacted coffee around and below it. Using a fine tool like a toothpick or
chopstick, break up the compacted coffee.
4.
Continued picking and scraping will eventually clear out the ports in the cone burr holder.
5.
Once all six openings are clear in the cone burr holder, set it onto a flat, sturdy surface with the burr facing
down. Set the adjustment collar assembly over the top and firmly press it onto the cone burr and holder.

AUTOMATIC CLEANING

A thorough, fast, and easy cleaning can be accomplished using Full Circle™ biodegradable grinder cleaning tablets. Full Circle
tablets are designed to dislodge coffee particles and absorb and remove odors and coffee oil residue. Remove all beans
from the hopper and run the grinder to remove any beans inside. Place the recommended amount of Full Circle into the
empty hopper. Set the macro adjust to 20, insert the grounds bin and run the grinder until empty. Grind all of the tablets into
the bin. Once complete, we recommend grinding approximately 30g coffee to remove any tablet residue. Discard the ground
tablets/coffee. For information on Full Circle cleaning tablets, go to www.urnex.com.
