GRINDING INTO A PORTAFILTER
NOTE
For filling a portafilter, you do no need to press the power button on top of the
grinder head. The grinder starts automatically, when pushing the portafilter into the
grinder cavity below the portafilter cradle.
WARNING
– Do not poke in the powder outlet! When the grinder gets
blocked, refer to the instructions given in the following section ‘Removing Blockages’).
1. Ensure that the appliance is assembled correctly (see: ‘Care and Cleaning / Re-
Assembling the Grinder’). Ensure that the grind size is set correctly (see: ‘Selec-
ting the Grind Size’). If required, fill the bean hopper with a sufficient amount of
whole coffee beans (see: ‘Filling the Bean Hopper’).
2. Position the appropriate portafilter cradle (50 - 54 mm or 58 mm) in the runners
under the grinder outlet and push the portafilter cradle in for fixing the portafilter
cradle stably.
3. Connect the appliance to a suited power supply (see: ‘Important Safeguards for
Electrical Appliances’).
NOTE
If you wish to check the consistency of the coffee powder first, below the portafil-
ter cradle you may push a suited small bowl into the grinder cavity, thus catching
the coffee powder given off in the bowl. If required, let the grinder operate, while
setting the grind size.
4. Hold the portafilter (with the appropriate filter basket mounted correctly) directly
under the portafilter cradle, and push the portafilter into the grinder cavity. Press
the portafilter on the black button at the rear wall of the grinder cavity. The grin-
der starts operation.
5. Pull out your portafilter, when you are satisfied with the amount of coffee pow-
der. The grinder stops automatically.
REMOVING BLOCKAGES
Rarely, stalks or other foreign objects could be merged with the coffee beans and
block the grinder. Additionally, coffee beans could get wedged within the grinder.
