Check the product page and the manufacturer's brochure for a list of included accessories, details, specs, and additional product information from LUCCA and DF64. See the User Manual for information on operating the grinder and for additional resources.
Step one: Unboxing
After removing the grinder from its box, ensure you place it on a solid, level surface.
Inspect the grinder for any damage. If you notice any, contact us immediately.
Insert the bellow and lid to the top of the grinder.
Plug the grinder in (this will automatically turn the grinder on).
Insert the dosing cup if you choose.
Step two: Operating your grinder
Do not make a grind adjustment until after you've pulled your first shot.
The DF64 grinder's grind setting is adjusted by turning the top collar. Turning the collar clockwise finer and turning counter-clockwise coarser, as indicated by the markings and metal indicator. Make small adjustments, as this mechanism is fairly sensitive.
It's advised to activate the grinder by the front switch underneath the chute, then put coffee into the hopper and push down on the bellow a few times before deactivating the grinder. This method helps reduce retention.
