switch (7) and remove the plug from the wall outlet. Do not
introduce coffee beans when the coffee grinder is working.
The quality and the taste of your coffee depend both on the blend
used and the grind.
The appliance comes with a grind-adjusting knob (Fig.10). To use this
feature, turn the graduated knob when the coffee grinder is working;
the numbers displayed on the knob indicate the grind setting.
The manufacturer sets the knob to an average grinding coarseness
in the factory: if the ground coffee is too fine, turn the knob toward
higher settings; if the ground coffee is too coarse, turn the knob toward
lower settings.
You will note the change only after dispensing three /four coffees.
Use coffee beans for espresso coffee makers. Avoid using extremely fine
or coarse grind settings (e.g. 1 and 16); if you find this is necessary,
try using different coffee blends.
Store the coffee in a cool and dry place, in an airtight container.
You should change the grind setting if the coffee does not flow out in
an optimal manner, or more specifically:
The coffee flows out too fast = excessively coarse grind > turn the
knob to lower settings;
The coffee drips out slowly and/or not at all = excessively fine grind
> turn the knob to higher settings.
