TIPS FOR PERFECT BARISTA

The following are BARISTA TIPS for use in a best way of the grinder and have the best quality of ground powder:

1. For an optimum coffee taste, buy whole coffee beans and finely grind them just before brewing.
2. Grind the bean every time before brew espresso in case you ever used coffee powder. The bean’s hopper can allow to keep the flavour of the beans (thankful to the UV Protection design and the lid) for around 1 Week, but we suggest that every time use the beans more fresh that is possible. You must keep the unused coffee powder in a cool, dry place.
3. Do not reuse coffee powder since this will greatly reduce the coffee’s flavor.
4. If we don’t use all the ground powder in this moment, keep the ground powder in the powder chamber ❿ , and close the silicone cover ⓫ to keep the flavour.
5. Tips about the residual powder that is inside the Grinder:
6. If you don’t change any setting about size of grinding and time, a good suggestion is, before grinding a new powder, grinding a few second to remove the previous powder that is inside the grinder (from may by one day) and really use only fresh powder every time;
7. If you change the setting of the grinding, and the inside of grinder have some residual powder with different size.
   (For example if you already grinding for Drip Coffee previously and now you want Espresso, the powder for Espresso require a very fine grinding). So, the best use is, after setting, you need to grinding a few second to remove the previous powder (may be old and for sure not correct size). Now, if you want grinding and use the powder, you have the correct size for the coffee you want actually brew.
