Cleaning your Grinder with Cafetto Grinder Cleaner

 

The easiest way to clean a grinder is to run 1 sachet of Cafetto Grinder Cleaner through it every 4-6 months. Before using the grinder cleaner, make sure to empty your hopper of any old coffee and adjust your grind coarser.

How to Clean Your Coffee Grinder with Grindz
  1. Add 1 sachet (45 grams) of grinder cleaner tablets into empty grinder.
  2. Grind the whole package through your grinder and discard.
  3. Add 40 grams or 4-5 tablespoons of old coffee to your hopper.
  4. Grind the coffee to help push through any grinder cleaner left in the burrs and discard.

For a Deeper Clean:

Recommend Tools:

  • 1 can of compressed air
  • 1 vacuum with nozzle attachment (optional)
  • 1 brush
  • 1 clean, dry towel
  1. Remove the hopper and empty it of any whole bean coffee.
  2. Use a clean, dry towel to wipe out the inside of the hopper. Avoid using a damp towel–any extra moisture in the grinder can cause ground coffee to stick to the burrs, resulting in jams and stalls.
  3. Use compressed air and a brush to clear any coffee in the burrs and grind chute. We recommend covering the top of the grinder with a towel to minimize coffee spraying into the air.
  4. If you have a vacuum with a nozzle attachment, use it to clean any loose coffee from the burrs, chute and counter.
  5. Replace the hopper and open the hopper throat.
  6. Enjoy your freshly cleaned grinder!
