5. Remove the bean container lid (A) and add whole coffee beans to the bean
container (B). Follow the cup marking on the inside of the bean container (I) to
know the quantity of whole coffee beans to add to the container to yield the
number of cups you will be brewing. Replace lid.
NOTE: The cup indicator should only 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.
WARNING: Only coffee beans should be filled into the bean container. Never fill
any of the following into the bean container: sugar-coated coffee beans, syrups
or other coatings, and instant coffee.
Never fill water or any other liquid into the coffee bean container.
6. Push and hold the On/Off button (J) for 2 seconds to start your Capresso grinder.
The grinder will begin grinding the coffee directly into the ground coffee container.
It will stop automatically when all beans have been emptied from the bean container.
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,
press the On/Off button (J) to power the machine off.
7. Be sure to unplug the appliance after every use. Cord (E) can be stored by wrapping
it around the bottom of the unit.
NOTE: We suggest not storing any coffee beans inside of the bean container as
they will lose their flavor and aroma when exposed to air. Always store coffee
beans in an airtight container away from direct sunlight.
Guidelines for Fineness Selector Settings
Setting For use with the following household coffee equipment:
COARSE French Press Coffee Makers, Pour-Over Coffee Makers and Percolators
MEDIUM Most Espresso (non-pump) Steam/Boiler Machines
All Capresso Drip Coffee Makers and most other drip coffee makers,
when using GoldTone Filters
All Capresso Drip Coffee Makers and most other drip coffee makers,
when using filter paper
FINE Capresso Pump Espresso Machines and most other pump espresso
machines, when using medium brown, non-oily beans
NOTE: The fineness settings are approximate guidelines. When using dark, oily beans, use
a coarser grind; with light, dry beans, use a finer grind.
IMPORTANT: When using oily coffee beans, grind in small batches and empty the ground
coffee container frequently to avoid ground coffee from backing up into the grinding chamber.
ATTENTION: For espresso pump machines: if your espresso brews too fast, try a lower
fineness setting. If your espresso brews too slowly, try a higher fineness setting than the
ones recommended above.
NOTE: The finer the grind setting, the longer it takes to grind a certain amount of coffee.
