3. Remove Bean Hopper by twisting it counterclockwise until the arrow on the Bean Hopper is aligned with the unlock symbol on the unit base. Then, pull Bean Hopper out of the unit base.

4. Wash the Bean Hopper and Grind Chamber parts with warm soapy water.

5. Dry all pieces thoroughly.
   CAUTION! Never use abrasive cleansers, steel wool pads or other abrasive materials. Unit is not dishwasher safe.

6. Install the Bean Hopper by aligning the arrow on the Bean Hopper with the unlock symbol on the unit base and then twisting clockwise. The arrow on the Bean Hopper should now be aligned with the lock symbol on the unit base.

7. Place Chamber Lid back on Grind Chamber and then install into unit by pushing to lock into place.

HOW TO USE YOUR BURR GRINDER

1. After all parts have been put into place, fill the Bean Hopper with coffee beans and replace the lid.

2. Adjust the grind size using the Grind Size Selector on the right side of the unit. Align the indicator to your desired grind size (Figure 1). Your Mr. Coffee Burr Grinder offers 18 grind settings from coarse to fine.
   NOTE: Grind size settings will change the output volume of grounds. Fine will produce less grounds and course will product more grounds when the same volume (cup) setting is used.

3. Set the Cup Size Selector to the desired amount of grounds (Figure 2). You have the option to select enough grounds to make 2 to 18 cups of coffee.

4. Press On/Off Button to start the grinding process.

5. The unit will automatically stop when the selected volume has been reached.
   NOTE: You may also stop the grinding process at any time by pressing the On/Off Button again.

6. Remove the Grind Chamber and use the grounds as needed.

7. Use the cleaning brush, located on the bottom of the Bean Hopper Lid, to remove dust from the unit’s chamber exit chute located behind the removable Grind Chamber.

COFFEE MEASUREMENT CHART

For Medium Ground Coffee

1. The amount of whole coffee beans required is about the same as the specified quantity of medium ground coffee tablespoons.
2. The unit will work for about 1 minute if you have selected the 12 cups setting.
3. The unit may be stopped during grinding by:
   • The user – you may press the On/Off at any time to stop the grinding operation.
   • An out of position grind chamber – check that it is not full. Close the lid, place it in the correct position and adjust the timer setting to avoid overfilling the grind chamber before resuming operation.

CAUTION! Avoid overfilling the Grind Chamber past the MAX line. This can cause the unit motor to overheat and break a thermal fuse inside the mill, possibly damaging the unit permanently.

NOTE: If all Bean Hopper and Grind Chamber parts are not tightly in place correctly, the safety switches within the machine will not allow the grinder to work. You MUST have all parts in place to safely use the Burr Grinder.

HELPFUL GRINDING HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS

You may customize the above bean quantity recommendations as you familiarize yourself with your new Mr. Coffee® Burr Grinder, but always bear in mind the following:

1. Using finer grounds than required for brewing coffee in an automatic drip coffee maker might cause an overflow of the paper filter and/or the brew basket. Also, the taste of the coffee might be stronger than desired. If this happens, use less coffee grounds or change the grind setting to medium or to whichever setting is necessary to obtain the desired result.

2. Using coarser grounds than required for brewing coffee in an automatic drip coffee maker might cause an overflow of the paper filter and/or the brew basket. Also, the taste of the coffee might be weaker than desired. If this happens, use more coffee grounds to obtain the desired result. For a regular or stronger cup of coffee, adjust the grind setting to a medium to fine setting.

3. When a finer setting is required to brew espresso or cappuccino, please grind the amount of coffee grounds recommended by your product manufacturer.

   • For Mr. Coffee® Espresso products:
   • Set the Burr Grinder to Fine grind.
   • For 2 oz. of espresso coffee, 2 tsp (0.6 tbsp) of fine grind are required. Set the Timer to 3 cups, this will keep the unit ON enough time to grind the finer grounds required.
   • For 4 oz. of espresso coffee, 4 tsp (1.3 tbsp) of fine grind are required. Set the Timer to 5 cups, this will keep the unit ON enough time to grind the finer grounds required.
   • Using improper medium or coarse coffee grinding settings might affect the taste of the brewed espresso coffee, because the optimum coffee extraction is not achieved. If you like a strong cup of espresso, make sure the grind setting is fine.

4. When a coarser setting is required to brew coffee manually, in a percolator or using a French Press, grind the amount of coffee grounds recommended by your product manufacturer.

   • Mr. Coffee® recommendation:

   • Set the Burr Grinder to a coarse grind setting.

   • Set the timer to 8-10 cups, this will keep the unit ON enough time to grind enough coffee for 12 cups of brewed coffee.

   • Given that coarse grounds will take up more volume, always set the timer for 2-4 cups less than the amount desired.
     NOTE: Remember, you can customize the recommendations above as you discover which setting best meets your personal coffee-making preference. As in the case of automatic drip coffee makers,

   • Using an excessive amount of coffee grounds for brewing coffee in a percolator might cause an overflow of the percolator brew basket.

   • Using finer grounds than required for brewing coffee manually in a percolator, or using a French Press, might cause an overflow of the percolator brew basket and/or the taste of the coffee might be stronger than desired. If you want a regular or a weaker cup of coffee adjust the grind setting to a medium to coarse setting.

5. Use only coffee beans in this appliance.

6. The Grind Chamber and its lid must always be in place when using this appliance.

7. Do not use the finest setting when grinding coffee for your automatic drip coffeemaker. The finer grounds could cause the coffee basket to overflow.

8. To avoid overheating the motor, do not grind more than 2 full whole bean hoppers or 2 full 12-cup cycles without a break. Allow the motor to cool to room temperature at least 2 minutes between cycles.

9. If the grinder stops working after running consecutive cycles, unplug the grinder from the wall outlet and allow it to cool for at least an hour. Then plug grinder back in and use as needed.

10. Flavored coffee beans will gum up the burrs and leave an oily residue when stored in the whole bean hopper for long periods of time.

11. Clean after every third use for best performance.

12. After using, open the grinder to the coarsest setting and run empty to clear the grinding path.
    NOTE: For optimum freshness of your coffee beans, do NOT store in the bean hopper for extended periods of time.

1. Always unplug your Burr Grinder after use and before cleaning.
