INTRODUCTION
By purchasing whole beans and storing them properly at home you can maximize
the potential flavor of your home-brewed coffee. Grinding your coffee beans
just prior to brewing is a critical step in producing great-tasting coffee at
home.
The KRUPS GX204 grinder is designed to quickly grind coffee beans and dispense
them easily into your coffee filter for brewing.
OPERATION
-
Place the unit on a sturdy countertop.
-
Fill the grinding chamber with the amount of coffee needed for the number of cups you plan to brew.
-
KRUPS recommends 7 grams of ground coffee per 150 ml cup. The whole beans can be measured with a standard coffee scoop or 1 tablespoon measure. Use one heaping teaspoon per 150 ml cup of water.
-
Place the lid (a) on the grinder base.
-
Plugin the grinder. To start grinding, press the power button (fig.2).
-
The power will only stay on as long as the button is pressed.
-
The coffee will be ground fine or coarse depending on the amount of grinding time.
For example, a coarse grind would require less grinding time than a fine grind. -
When grinding is complete, unplug the unit. Carefully remove the lid and pour the ground coffee into a bowl or canister, or directly into your coffee machine filter basket.
Caution
Wait until the blades have completely stopped before removing the lid. The
grinder should be unplugged before removing the lid.
CLEANING
Keeping your grinder clean is essential to achieving optimal taste results. Coffee beans contain oils that will collect in the grinder and quickly become stale. The stale oils can contribute unwanted flavors to your brewed coffee. It is best to clean the unit regularly.
Caution
Be sure that the grinder is unplugged before cleaning!
- Remove all coffee grounds after each use. A small soft brush or cloth is helpful in
- Wipe inside of grinder lid and blades very carefully with a damp cloth.
- The base unit can be wiped down with a damp cloth. NEVER immerse the base unit in water or any other liquid!
- The lid can be washed in warm water, using a mild detergent, or be placed in the top rack of the dishwasher and used on a gentle cycle.
