8. Cleaning
You should clean your espresso grinder regularly, just like your
espresso machine. Grind-on-demand grinders in particular have
to be kept clean and residue free in order to ensure dosing accu-
racy for every shot and every customer.
8.1 Cleaning with GRINDZ™ grinder cleaner
We recommend cleaning your espresso grinder once every 1-2
weeks (every 25 kg) with our GRINDZ™ Grinder Cleaner.
For cleaning your grinder with GRINDZ™, just follow the steps
below:
• Close the hopper slider and grind the remaining coffee out of
the grinder casing.
• Take off the hopper.
• Fill 35 grams of GRINDZ™ directly into the grinder casing (con-
tent of one sachet or one can’s lid).
• Reposition the hopper on the grinder.
• Adjust the fi neness to coarse (for a better cleaning effect of the
GRINDZ™-particles).
• Start the grinder and grind through all GRINDZ™ into your
port-a-fi lter or a seperate bin (several shots needed).
• Open the hopper slider and grind appr. 2 - 3 double shots of
coffee in order to purge the residues of GRINDZ™ out of the
disc casing.

Formation of dust while grinding GRINDZ is
natural and harmless. The dust particles can be
cleaned with a soft cloth from the aroma fez and
the spout.
8.2 Cleaning the grinder placement surface
Pull out the mains plug!
• Lift the grinder aside and clean the area on which it stands and
the bottom of its base.
• Both surfaces must be dry and free of oil and grease.
• Reposition the grinder
8.3 Cleaning the grinder casing
From time to time clean the outside of the casing and the drip
tray (pos.17) using a damp cloth.
8.4 Cleaning of the hopper
The hopper should be cleaned daily with a damp cloth inside and
outside in order to remove coffee and oil residues which could
negatively infl uence the taste in the cup.
Do not clean the drip tray or the hopper in the
dish-washer. Its colour might fade.
