INTRODUCTION

This equipment will store up-to six pounds of whole bean coffee in each of two hoppers and grind it to a preset
grind and amount into an awaiting funnel and filter from most commercial drip coffee brewers. The equipment is only
for indoor use on a sturdy counter or shelf. Adequate space must be available above the grinder to raise the lids when
adding beans. Use only with whole bean coffee.

The grind is preset at the factory to drip specifications as set forth by the United States Department of Commerce

and adopted by the Coffee Brewing Center of the Pan American Coffee Bureau. Adjustments may be made to alter both
the amount and grind from the factory setting.

single phase, 60 Hz.

OPERATING CONTROLS

Off/On/Start Switch

OFF - (upper position) Switching to this position stops all operation of the grinder.
ON - (middle position) The switch will return to this position after a grind cycle has begun and

will remain in this position after grinding has ceased.

START - (lower, momentary position) Pressing the switch to this position and releasing initiates

a grind cycle.

Hopper Selector Switch
LEFT - Switching to this position allows beans to be ground from the left

hopper.

RIGHT - Switching to this position allows beans to be ground from the

right hopper.

Dispense Timer - DG-2

The dispense timer controls the amount of beans that will be ground in a cycle. The timer can be adjusted
to dispense a different amount from each hopper. The scale is from 0.1 to 60.0 seconds. Refer to the
Adjustments section for timer setting chart. See page 7.

+/Increase - (left momentary push-button)

Pressing this button will increase the dispense interval on the timer while
the readout is displayed. The interval will change slowly for the first second’s
indication, then speed-up for the next fifteen second’s indication, and increase
very fast after that until it reaches the limit on the scale.

DISPLAY - (center momentary push-button)

Pressing this button will display the current timer readout. The timer can
only be adjusted while the readout is displayed. The indication on the display
will last for five minutes.

–/Decrease - (right momentary push-button)

Pressing this button will decrease the dispense interval on the timer while

cover with a dry clean cloth.

5. Select a grind chamber to clean first. Each grind chamber should be disassembled, cleaned and reassembled

before cleaning the opposite side.

6. Remove the two screws holding front cover to burr housing. Carefully remove burr housing front cover.

Clean the inside surface with a dry stiff nonmetallic bristle brush and wipe with a dry clean cloth.

7. Carefully remove rotor button, rotor, brass bushing and steel washer from grinder. Clean all parts with a dry

stiff nonmetallic bristle brush and wipe with a dry clean cloth.

8. Clean the grind chamber with a dry stiff nonmetallic bristle brush and wipe with a dry clean cloth. Use a small

screw driver to dislodge coffee packed in the discharge chute at the base of the grind chamber and wipe
clean. Use care not to damage dechaffer blade.

9. Reinstall steel washer, brass bushing (flanged end first), rotor, rotor button and front cover to burr housing.

10. Repeat steps 6 through 9 on remaining grind chamber.

11. Reinstall dispense chute cover.

13. Refer to adjustments section below to vary the grind dispensed from each grind chamber.

COFFEE GRINDING

1. Select (either left or right hopper) with selector switch and visually inspect the desired hopper for an ample

supply of whole bean coffee.

2. Place a paper filter into the brew funnel. The filter must not be folded-over or tilted to one side.

ADJUSTMENTS

The grind can be set from fine to very coarse. The grind may be adjusted for use in most commercial coffee

brewers. The following procedures should be used to make adjustments.

NOTE - On DG-2 grinders a change in the burr adjustment will also change the amount dispensed. Any adjust-

ment to the burrs should be followed by an adjustment of the timer,

Burr Adjustment

1. Unplug the grinder and empty all beans from the hopper(s).

2. Plug-in the grinder, place funnel with filter into the funnel rails. Momentarily

8. The following settings approximately correspond to the CBC recognized grinds. All are referenced from the
arrow position marked in step #7.

FINE GRIND: Rotate the adjusting screw 7 hash marks in a counterclockwise direction.
DRIP GRIND: Rotate the adjusting screw 8 hash marks in a counterclockwise direction.
REGULAR (COARSE) GRIND: Rotate the adjusting screw 12 hash marks in a counterclockwise direction.
NOTE: Exact adjustment will vary according to bean roast or added flavoring.

4. Plug-in grinder and select (left or right) desired hopper. Momentarily press the “DISPLAY” (center) button.
The display will indicate the current timer setting and will allow adjustment. Press the “+” or “-” buttons as
required to obtain the desired grind time. The interval will change slowly for the first second’s indication,
then speed-up for the next fifteen second’s indication, and increase very fast after that until it reaches the
limit on the scale. Set the timer for the desired amount of coffee to be ground.

5. Verify the setting by weighing a few samples. Use the chart on page 10 as an approximate guide only.
