If grinding at the coarsest setting does not yield coarse enough grinds, the calibration can be set to a finer
point, up to 1A. If grinding at the finest setting does not yield fine enough grinds, the calibration can be set
to a coarser point, down to 3Z. It is not recommended to calibrate outside these parameters.
SCALE CALIBRATION:
If the amount of ground coffee yielded in weight mode does not match expectations, the scale may need to be
recalibrated. A 200g weight is needed or, if another scale is available, a makeshift weight can be made by filling
the grounds bin with something small like coffee beans to equal a total weight of 200g, including the weight of the
grounds bin. Once a weight is acquired, follow the instructions below.
1.
Remove the grounds bin

Unplug and plug in the grinder again to save the calibration.
WEIGHT OFFSET PROGRAMMING:
If the grinder consistently overshoots or undershoots the target weight, the offset may need to be adjusted. This is
most likely to occur if the original burrs have been swapped out for burrs of another material. Follow the instructions
below to adjust the weight offset:
1.
Unplug the grinder. Plug it back in and hold the stop
