Cuisinart DBM-8 User Manual

GRINDING TIMES:

Your Cuisinart® Supreme Grind™ Automatic Burr Mill is
fully automatic. There are 6 settings per grind type, and the
grind chamber holds enough ground coffee for up to 32 cups.
The unit is set for medium grind settings, which takes
approximately 40 seconds to grind coffee for 12 cups, and
approximately 55 seconds 18 cups.

When choosing fine settings, you may need to set the cup
selector at a higher number of cups to get the desired amount
of coffee, as fine grinds are very compact. The opposite is true
for coarse settings. You may need to set the cup selector at a
larger number of cups to get the desired amount of coffee, as
coarse grinds are very loose. To determine the right grind
consistencies and quantities, experiment with different grinds
and coffee types to suit your taste.

1. Be sure that grinder plug has been removed
