Quickstart | basic usage

1. Grinder Placement. Find a flat, dry counter space with access to a power outlet. The EG-1 is made to be usable in 90v ~ 240v regions without the need for a separate transformer.  It uses a C13 style cable (like as a computer) that can be purchased locally as needed. A US-style 3 prong cable is included inbox.

2. Remove from box. Using both hands, carefully pull the EG-1 straight out of the packaging. Use caution – it is heavy.

3. Attach the Bean Dish. This attaches as shown so that the stainless dowel pins align the part and the magnet holds them together.

4. Mount the Shaker Wood Platen Rail. The PF Cover is removed (as shown). We recommend starting with just the wood platen to accommodate the Blind Shaker. Video regarding usage of the rails and the Blind Shaker can be found on our Youtube Channel.

5. Plug in unit. Use the included power cord. You may need an adapter or another C13 style cable for your country, but a transformer should not be needed as it works anywhere with a 90v-240v AC supply.

6. Power on mains. This is the switch on the back of the unit next to where the cord plugs in. The display should read “0”

7. Adjust the RPM level. Turn the black knob counterclockwise to reduce to the 500-700RPM range (a good starting point). Note that the RPMs will display for just a second so they can be pre-set without running the grinder.

8. Purge button
   Pushing while grinder is stopped will momentarily reverse-spin the burrs before briefly spinning them at MAX. This can dislodge foreign objects or un- roasted beans that may have jammed the grinder, and purge the last granules of leftover coffee. Pushing while grinding gives a temporary MAX burst.

9. Using the On/Off Button. When the blades are spinning, the button will illuminate and the button will remain depressed. Be sure not to leave the grinder ON/Spinning for excessive periods of time. The mains power in the back only needs to be shut down when you wish to turn the LEDs off. The EG-1 will enter a sleep mode in 60 seconds and the LEDs will dim until the On/Off button is pressed again, when it will awaken instantaneously to start grinding.

10. Adjust the Grind. Test grind a small amount of coffee to verify the initial setting. We usually ship with the grinder close to an espresso setting, but it will need to be adjusted for your brewing style and particular coffee. Adjustments coarser and finer are done by lifting up the locking ring and turning. Larger numbers mean larger particles, and each tick adjusts by 5 microns. There is no absolute zero. There may be some small remnants of beans in the grinder during shipping, as we test grind ~200g of coffee with each unit before shipping. While we do clean, small amounts may remain.

11. Grinding Coffee. When you are dialed into your grind size, you can dump your coffee dose into the Bean Dish. You may use either a “Hot Start” where the grinder is on/spinning before the beans are introduced, or a “Cold Start” where the beans are added before turning the grinder on. We typically recommend using a Hot Start when operating the EG-1. When the dose is finished grinding (around ~10s for a 20g dose), you can purge any residual ground coffee in the spout by using the “clicker” located behind the bean funnels.

12. Cleaning the Grinder. The EG-1 was designed to be extremely quick and easy to clean. This makes it a daily process with no tools required. Start by ensuring that the grinder is powered down at mains and the on/off button is not depressed. Remove both the Upper and Lower funnels to have access to the grind chamber. Pull down to disengage the funnel covers from the pins and magnets, then pull up/down to remove them from the main body unit and set them aside. Use a small brush to clean any coffee residue from the surfaces in the grind chamber. A wipe with a damp towel is also OK, but never put any of the EG-1 parts into the dishwasher as this will ruin them. Videos can be seen on our Youtube channel (youtube.com/weberworkshops)

13. Sleep & Power Off. The grinder is programmed to go into sleep mode after 60 seconds of inactivity. The LED display will dim. It can be woken up instantaneously by pressing the on/off button. We recommend powering down at mains overnight for cafes, or during any prolonged period of non use in the home.
