      LUCCA DF64 Single Dose: Setup Guide

      Congratulations on your new LUCCA DF64 espresso grinder. Let's get it set up!

      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 if you've elected for Clive's Dial-In service.
      • The grind setting of the DF64 grinder is adjusted by turning the top collar. Turning the collar clockwise adjusts the grind setting finer, and turning counter-clockwise adjusts the grind setting 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.
