Features of your Torino continued
Twin Pump and Triple Thermoblock System
True to commercial use, the Torino
has twin pumps, and a unique triple
thermoblock heating system, to deliver fast
water heat up and delivery at the correct
pressure. There is a dedicated pump and
2 dedicated thermoblocks for the espresso,
and a dedicated pump and 1 dedicated
thermoblock for the steam function.
Dedicated systems for each of the espresso
and steam functions, allow you to pour an
espresso and texture milk and at the same
time; helping to eliminate temperature
variations.
The thermoblock heating systems are lined
with stainless steel and fitted with PID
technology. The PID (proportional integralderivative) controller continually monitors
the water temperature to ensure water is
delivered to the coffee grounds at the precise
temperature needed.
Espresso Function
The Torino is fitted with a 15 BAR Italian
pump and two thermoblocks for the espresso
function, delivering the pressure required
for a complete extraction of oils, coffee
solids and aroma. Fitted with a pressure
relief system, it ensures that any remaining
pressure after the extraction is released
internally through to the drip tray, allowing
for quick, successive brews. The second
thermoblock for the espresso pour is located
inside the group head, ensuring the water is
at the exact temperature just before it meets
the coffee grinds.
Steam Function
A 4 BAR Italian pump and one thermoblock
is dedicated to the steam function, producing
instant steam pressure for texturing milk.
Espresso Pressure Gauge
The espresso gauge is an indicator of the
quality of the espresso pour and should be
used as a guide. It measures the pressure or
resistance created by water being pumped
through the tamped coffee grinds into the
group handle.
Optimum pour. When the needle is within the
target area on the gauge, it indicates a quality
serve of espresso has been made. A quality pour
has a slow, but flowing pour of espresso with
a consistency similar to that of warm dripping
honey. The crema is dark golden in colour.
Under-extracted. If the needle is before
the target area, this indicates the serve
of espresso is ‘under-extracted’ as it has
extracted too little of the essential oils,
flavours and colours from the coffee grinds.
This occurs when water passes too quickly
through the tamped coffee grinds and is
an indication that either the grind is too
coarse (so the water flows straight through
the grinds) or the filter basket has been
under-dosed (too little coffee in the basket).
It tastes flat and lacks flavour. The pour is
quick and light in colour and the resulting
crema is thin with a creamy light brown
colour.

Over-extracted. When the needle goes beyond
the target area it indicates that the serve of
espresso is ‘over-extracted’ as it has extracted
too much of the essential oils, flavours and
colours from the coffee grinds. This occurs when
the water passes very slowly through the tamped
coffee grinds and is an indication that either
the grind is too fine (so that it is difficult for the
water to pass through) or the filter basket has
been over-dosed (too much coffee in the basket).
In this situation the hot water is in contact with
the coffee grinds for too long which creates a
burnt and bitter tasting espresso. There may be
no pour, or it may be slow and drip throughout
the entire pour. The crema is very dark.
Shot Clock
The shot clock provides another indicator of the
quality of the pour. The optimum time per shot
varies between different bean types. However in
general:
· Single shot = 20 – 35 seconds
· Double shot = 50 - 65 seconds
Manual Pour Arm
You can use the manual arm if you like your
shot shorter or longer than the standard pour,
or if you like to change the duration of the
pour for different bean types which require
different brew lengths.
Commercial Size Group Head & Group Handle
The exterior of the Torino, is inspired from the
traditional, high polished commercial Italian
machines, and the iconic Italian e61 group
head. The group head and 58mm group handle
are designed to commercial specifications
using brass and stainless steel components
for durability, and to help bring a professional
espresso experience to your home.
The sloping group handle has been designed by
Sunbeam for an easier, more ergonomic use;
and to provide a more even tamp. The angle of
the handle provides a more ergonomic action
when attaching and removing the handle from
the group head. The sloping handle also allows
you to rest the group handle on the bench
whilst keeping the filter basket level, making
it easier to produce an even tamp, ensuring an
even extraction. The tamping pad on the underside of the group handle basket allows you to
position the group handle on the edge of your
bench top when tamping.
Pre-Infusion
Pre-infusion is pre-programmed into the
Torino. Pre-infusion warms and wets the
coffee grounds under low pressure to bring
the particles together to form one cake/ puck,
before full water pressure is applied. This
helps to prepare the bean oils for extraction
to deliver greater body and sweetness to the
espresso. It also allows the cake to bloom
(expand) into the shower head so there is an
even surface for an even pour.
Drip tray and grill
The large capacity drip tray is lined with
plastic, preventing staining from espresso
oils, lightweight for easy removal and
designed with no dirt traps for simple wipe
down cleaning.
Single floor filter baskets
These are the most common style of filter
baskets. As the name implies, these baskets
have a single floor. If you hold these up to
the light, you can see many small holes.
The smaller single filter is used for a single
cup of coffee, and the larger double filter
is used for two cups of coffee, or one single
'double strength' cup of coffee. Suitable
dosage varies from bean to bean. However in
general the dose for a single filter is between
10-12g, and double flter is 18-20g.
7
Features of your Torino continued
Tip: For optimum results Sunbeam
recommends using the single floor filters with
the Torino. To achieve the optimum espresso
pour, it is best to grind your coffee beans as
you need.
Dual floor filter baskets
These filters have 2 floors. When held up to
the light and looking at the under-side of the
filter you will see a single hole. Dual floor
filters are designed for use with pre-ground
coffee as this coffee is too coarse for use in
the single floor baskets. Dual floor baskets
are designed to compensate for this by
slowing the flow of espresso creating a subtle
aeration to ensure a golden crema. Although
designed for use with pre-ground coffee, dual
floor filter baskets can also be used with all
ground coffee. If you are having trouble with
under extracted coffees, try using dual floor
filter baskets.
Power Saving Mode
After 1 hour of non-use the machine will
automatically switch to power saving mode.
All the lights on the buttons will dim and
the machine will power down to 75% of
power. After a further 4 hours of non-use the
machine will beep once and then turn off.
To bring the machine out of power saving
mode simply press any of the buttons on the
control panel.

Tips to Coffee Making
This section gives greater detail about the
coffee making process, and should be used
together with the Quick Guide to Using your
Torino.
1. Pre-heating Glasses
• Pre-heating glasses helps to preserve the
crema of the espresso and also helps to
maintain the temperature of your coffee
once it has been poured.
• Place glasses and cups to be used on the
warming tray of the machine, or fill with
hot water from the hot water wand.
2. Pre-heating the Group Handle and Filter
Baskets
• This is important especially for the first
coffee being made, as a cold group handle
can significantly decrease the temperature
of the water at the point of extraction.
This in turn will alter the quality and
characteristics of the resulting espresso
extraction.
• Fit the group handle with your filter
basket and hold under the group head and
purge with hot water by pressing the 2
CUP button or by using the manual pour
arm. Rotate the group handle so both the
underside of the group handle and the
filter basket is preheated. Dry the filter
basket before filling with coffee.
3. Purge the Group Head, before & after
extraction
• Always purge water from the group head
before locking in the group handle. This
will dislodge any ground coffee residue
from the group head.
• After each extraction, remove the group
handle and purge the group head. This will
ensure it is clean for the next extraction
and prevent residue and grinds building
up. Simply press the 1 CUP button or use
the manual pour arm and allow some water
to run through.
4. Dosing and Tamping
• Grind evenly and directly into the centre
of the filter basket, and fill with ground
coffee. The amount of coffee grinds to add
depends on the bean and how you like
your coffee. However a good guide is to
aim to have the filter basket completely
full to the rim with loose coffee grinds
before tamping. The easiest way to do this
is to fill with ground coffee and collapse
it as you go (by tapping the handle down
on the bench) to create more space to fill
with more coffee. End with a slight mound
above the rim, so that if you smoothed the
grind mound with your finger along the
rim of the basket, the basket would be
completely full to the rim (with no gaps).
At this stage you have not tamped.
• Using the tamper, tamp straight down until
there is about an 3-5mm space between
the tamped grinds and the top of the filter
basket. Again, this will vary depending
on the bean you use, and how you like
your coffee. Ensure to tamp to an even
level, as this will ensure the water flows
evenly through the grinds ensuring an even
extraction and better flavour.
• Suitable dosage varies from bean to bean.
However in general the dose for a single
filter basket is between 10-12g, and
double filter basket is 18-20g. When you
are learning to make espresso for the first
time, you may want to weigh your dose to
ensure the correct dose.
15
Tips to Coffee Making continued
• To ensure a level tamp, use the Sunbeam
tamper as a handy guide. Line up the black
& silver dividing line on the base of the
tamp, and ensure it is level with the rim of
the filter basket.
• TIP. The coffee dosage and the degree of
tamping should remain the same every
time you make a coffee. The only thing
that should vary is the particle size of the
coffee grinds and this will vary depending
on the bean. By keeping a consistent
technique and changing one thing at a
time, it’s easier to know which variable
change produces a better taste for you.
NOTE: If purchasing pre-ground bagged coffee
purchase a very fine grind and use the dual
floor filter baskets as this coffee will still
be too coarse for use with single floor filter
baskets.
If having beans ground fresh for you, request
a very fine grind, the same that would be
used for a commercial espresso machine.
5. The Espresso Pour
• Great coffees start with freshly roasted
beans that will deliver a sweet espresso
that will be rich in texture, body and
aroma. Controlling each part of the coffee
making process is the secret.
• The way the espresso pours will tell you
everything. Look out for:
1. Shot Clock Infusion time. This is when
pressurised water is forced through the
ground coffee. The shot clock provides
a good indicator of the quality of the
pour. The optimum time per shot varies
between different bean types. However
in general:
· Single shot = 20 – 35 seconds
· Double shot = 50 - 65 seconds
2. Pressure Gauge. The pressure gauge
provides an indication of the resistance
created by the dosing/ tamping of the
filter basket and the grind size.
• Optimum pour. When the needle
is within the target area on the
gauge, it indicates a quality serve of
espresso has been made. A quality
pour has a slow, but flowing pour of
espresso with a consistency similar
to that of pouring honey. The crema
is dark golden in colour.
• Under-extracted. If the needle is
before the target area, this indicates
the serve of espresso is ‘underextracted’ as it has extracted too
little of the essential oils, flavours
and colours from the coffee grinds.
This occurs when water passes too
quickly through the tamped coffee
grinds and is an indication that
either the grind is too coarse (so
the water flows straight through the
grinds) or the filter basket has been
under-dosed (too little coffee in the
basket). It tastes flat, sour and lacks
flavour. The pour is quick and light
in colour and the resulting crema
is thin with a creamy light brown
colour.
• Over-extracted. When the needle
goes beyond the target area it
indicates that the serve of espresso
is ‘over-extracted’ as it has extracted
too much of the essential oils,
flavours and colours from the coffee
grinds. This occurs when the water
passes very slowly through the
tamped coffee grinds and is an
indication that either the grind is
too fine (so that it is difficult for
the water to pass through) or the
filter basket has been over-dosed
16
Tips to Coffee Making continued
(too much coffee in the basket).
In this situation the hot water is in
contact with the coffee grinds for
too long which creates a burnt and
bitter tasting espresso. There may
be no pour, or it may be slow and
drip throughout the entire pour. The
crema is very dark.
3. Look for colour change. The ideal pour
starts out dark brown and then soon
after becomes caramel with reddish
reflections. When it changes to a
creamy or light colour the sweetest
flavours and oils have been extracted,
and this should be the end of the pour.
4. Resistance; looking for a thickness, or
a nice ooziness in the pour like warm
dripping honey.
6. Consistency and Practice
Practice makes perfect. Using a consistent
technique (eg dose, tamp pressure etc) will
improve the quality of your coffee. Then,
by adjusting one variable at a time (eg
grind size), it will be easier to isolate those
elements that will make your coffee better.

designed for use with pre-ground coffee as
this coffee is too coarse to use in the single
floor baskets.

Tips to Milk Texturing
This section gives greater detail about the
milk texturing process, and should be used
together with the Quick Guide to Using your
Torino.
Milk texturing is the steaming of milk. The
steam coming out of the machine will only
heat the milk. You will also need to aerate
(add air to) the milk to create the microfoam. The micro-foam contains thousands of
tiny bubbles and gives the milk a silky, velvet
texture. Milk that has been textured correctly
looks thick and rich, with a silky sheen, and
has been heated to between 60-65°C. It’s
all about the positioning of the steam tip
and how you move the jug up and down to
immerse. Similar to making an espresso,
perfecting the art of milk texturing takes time
and practice.
Set up
• Firstly always start with fresh cold
milk from the fridge and a cold, clean
stainless steel jug. You can store your jug
in the fridge. Cold milk in a cold jug will
assist in texturing the milk.
• Fill the jug with approximately
250-300ml of milk. An easy guide is
to fill to the bottom of the ‘V’ of the
pour spout on the Sunbeam jug (about
300ml). This will produce enough milk
for 2 lattes or cappuccinos.
• TIP: Keep in mind that the volume of
milk will increase or ’stretch’ during the
texturing, so don’t overfill the jug.
• Before you begin texturing the milk,
always purge the steam wand of any
excess water until steam appears.
Using the Steam Wand
• The correct position of the steam wand
will ensure air is added to the milk to
create the micro-foam, and will ensure
the milk layers remain blended together.
• Rest the spout of the milk jug up against
the steam wand. Position the steam tip
just under the surface of the milk and
just off centre at the side of the jug. This
positioning will ensure the milk moves
around the jug in a whirlpool fashion.
Positioning the steam tip just under
the surface of the milk, will ensure that
some air is drawn into the milk at the
start of the texturing process. This is an
important factor, as textured milk does
need to have some aeration.
• Note: How air is introduced to the milk
will determine the consistency of the
foam. If large gulps of air are added to
the milk, the quality of the foam will
reflect this by having large bubbles.
Introducing air to the milk in a controlled,
gentle fashion indicated by a gentle
hissing sound, will ensure the milk has
fine aerated bead in the micro-foam.
• As the steam heats and textures the milk,
the level of the milk in the jug will begin
to rise. As this happens follow the level
of the milk by lowering the jug, always
keeping the tip of the steam nozzle just
below the surface. This will create a
slight hissing noise.
• After you have created the amount of
foam you want for the coffee you're
making, immerse the wand half way down
the milk level. This will heat up all the
milk and pulls in milk instead of air. This
will also ensure the milk and foam is
blended well throughout, preventing the
milk from layering. It also helps to make
the foam denser and smoother.
19
Tips to Milk Texturing continued
• Tip: The amount of foam required
depends on the type of coffee being
made, and how you like your coffee.
Cappuccinos traditionally have more foam
than a flat white.
• When the milk reaches the desired
temperature, turn the steam off. We
recommend around 65°C for sweet
tasting milk.
• Tip: The optimum texturing temperature
of milk is between 60-65°C. If the milk
is not heated long enough, there will be
little texturing of the milk. If the milk is
heated for too long it will start to boil at
around 72°C and all texture will be lost,
and it will have a burnt taste. Initially,
you may want to use a milk thermometer
to achieve the correct temperature.
Another good indication that the correct
temperature has been reached is when
the jug becomes too hot to leave your
fingers in contact for approximately 5
seconds.
• Remember to wipe the steam wand with
a clean damp cloth immediately after use
and purge the wand to remove any milk
that has been sucked up the steam wand.
The finishing touch
• Remember the aim of texturing is to
aerate the milk to create micro-foam, and
to ensure the milk remains blended well
throughout. Therefore after the milk has
been textured it’s essential to tap and swirl
the jug. Tapping the jug on the bench top
helps to release larger trapped air bubbles
to ensure fine micro-foam; and swirling the

Espresso recipes
ESPRESSO (SHORT BLACK)
Espresso is a concentrated, full bodied coffee
with a stable layer of cream on top – known
as ‘crema’. An espresso is the foundation of
all café coffee. Variations are achieved by
adding different amounts of milk and froth.
• 90mL espresso glass or demitasse cup
• single espresso (30-35mL)
LONG BLACK
A standard espresso with hot water, served in
a regular coffee cup or mug. The hot water is
added first so that the ‘crema’ is maintained.
• 190mL cup
• hot water (to taste)
• single or double espresso
MACCHIATO
Macchiato, Italian for ‘to stain or mark’.
Traditionally served as a standard espresso
with a dash of milk and a small dollop of
froth into the middle of the ‘crema’.
• 90mL espresso glass or demitasse cup
• single or double espresso
• marked with steamed milk froth
FLAT WHITE
Another old favourite, the Flat White is an
espresso with steamed milk, served in a
regular coffee cup or mug. The wider mouth
of the cup, naturally produces a flat surface,
which reduces the froth layer. The layer of
frothed milk on top is about 2mm.
• 190mL cup
• single or double espresso
• steamed milk
24
Espresso recipes continued
LATTE
An espresso with steamed milk, typically
served in a glass. The smaller mouth of the
glass naturally increases the height of the
froth layer. The layer of frothed milk on top is
about 10mm.
• 220mL glass or cup
• single or double espresso
• steamed milk
CAPPUCCINO
Cappuccinos are similar to lattes and flat
whites. It is an espresso with steamed milk,
but topped with a dusting of chocolate. It is
usually served in a coffee cup or mug.
• 190-240mL cup
• single or double espresso
• steamed milk
• dusted with chocolate
CAFFE MOCHA
Made in a similar way to a cappuccino but
with the addition of drinking chocolate.
Simply stir the chocolate into the espresso
prior to adding the steamed milk.
• 190-240mL cup or tall glass
• single or double espresso
• two teaspoons of drinking chocolate
• steamed milk
AFFOGATO
Affogato is a great dessert coffee. It is an
espresso topped with a serve of vanilla bean
ice cream. You can add Frangelico liqueur to
taste.
• 190mL cup
• single or double espresso
• scoop of vanilla ice cream
• serve with 30ml of Frangelico to taste

Care and cleaning
The coffee making process involves extracting
oils out of coffee grinds to make espresso
coffee. Deposits of these oils build up over
time and affect the taste of the coffee and
operation of the espresso machine.
Regular cleaning to remove these oils is
essential and will maintain the quality of the
coffee the espresso machine produces and
result in less maintenance being required.
This is easy to do by following a few quick
and easy cleaning steps after each coffee
making session;
Cycle water through the group head,
Purge steam through the steam wand,
Wipe the steam wand clean with a damp
cloth immediately after use,
Remove the filter basket from the filter
handle and clean away any old coffee oils,
and
Empty the drip tray and rinse.
Important: Never wash any of the espresso
machine parts or accessories in the
dishwasher.
Drip tray and grill
Remove the grill and drip tray at regular
intervals to empty. Clean with water and a
little non-abrasive washing up liquid, rinse
and dry.
Group head, group handle & filter baskets
The filter baskets and group handle should
be rinsed with warm water after each use and
then dried thoroughly.
To clean the group head of any old coffee
grinds cycle water through and wipe the
group head and around the inside rim with a
damp cloth.
Should the holes in the filter baskets become
clogged with coffee grinds use a fine bristled
brush to remove them. Also you can use
the cleaning pin which is supplied with
the espresso machine. The cleaning pin is
attached to the inside of the top fill lid,
located at the top of the espresso machine.
The cleaning pin has two pins at either end the shorter of the two is for cleaning out the
holes in the filter basket.
Group head rubber seal
The group head seal is located on the
underside of the group head and creates
a seal against the filter handle during the
espresso pour.
Note: During long periods of non-use we
recommend that the filter handle not be
left attached to the group head as this will
reduce the life of the seal.
Over time the seal will lose its elasticity
and require replacement, depending on use
usually every 12 months. Signs that the seal
is deteriorating are when the group handle
cannot create the necessary seal and steam
and or water escapes from around the group
head during the espresso pour.
Note: Contact Sunbeam on 1300 881 861
should you think that the group head seal
needs replacing. Please do not attempt to
change the seal without first consulting
Sunbeam.
26
Care and cleaning continued
Cup warming plate, hot water tap and exterior
Wipe over the unit with a damp cloth and
wipe dry. Do not use abrasives or metal
scourers as these will scratch the exterior
surface.
Steam wand
Keeping the steam wand clean is essential
to ensure maximum efficiency of the steam
function. A build up of caramelised/dried
milk on the steam wand will impair the
steaming and texturing ability of the espresso
machine.
Important: Wipe the steam wand clean with a
damp cloth immediately after each use and
purge a small amount of steam.
Should the milk dry/caramelise on the
steam wand, simply wrap the wand with
a clean damp cloth, turn the steam wand
over the drip tray and turn the steam on for
approximately 10 seconds. With the cloth
still on the steam wand leave to soak for
about 5 minutes and you will find that after
this time the dry/caramelised milk will easily
wipe away. Repeat process if still dirty.
Important: Never clean the steam wand with
an abrasive pad as this will damage the
steam wand.
27
Coffee Thermoblock Cleaning
Deposits of coffee oils build up over time and
affect the taste of the coffee and operation
of the espresso machine. Therefore the
group head will require regular cleaning. It is
recommended that the group head is cleaned
at a minimum every 3 months, however this
will vary depending on the frequency of use.
You can use the cleaning cycle when you
wish. The Torino will also remind you when
a cleaning cycle is required by displaying
CLEAN on the LCD panel. You can adjust the
frequency of the cleaning cycle reminder, see
Advanced Programming section.
When the Torino requires a cleaning cycle,
CLEAN will appear on the LCD display.
NOTE: During the cleaning cycle all other
espresso machine operations will be locked
until the cleaning cycle is completed. Should
the cleaning cycle be accidentally started
it can be cancelled by switching the power
‘OFF’ at the power outlet, or by pressing the
POWER button on the machine.

Congratulations
Congratulations on the purchase of your
Sunbeam Torino Precision Grinder, designed
and engineered in Australia.
Sunbeam Torino delivers quality, style and
superior performance capturing the essence
of the commercial kitchen. Inspired by heavyduty equipment found in restaurants, cafes
and bars, the Sunbeam Torino is built to
last. It brings together a range of appliances
designed to expertly create authentic café
food and beverages at home.
Uncompromising blends of stainless steel
and die-cast alloy characterise the range.
This, combined with advanced technology
and functional design, guarantee that each
product will surpass expectations.
When making coffee regardless of the
brewing method the flavour of the resulting
brew depends largely on the quality,
freshness and roast of the coffee beans used.
Other factors that can also affect the taste of
the final cup include the purity of the brew
water, the condition of the grinder and the
actual design of the burr mechanism within
the grinder.
Another advantage of the conical burr design
is its slow rotating operation. This combined
with a belt-driven motor, minimises heat
transfer to the burrs and thus protects the
aromatic profile of the coffee and ultimately
enhances the quality of the resulting brew.
The Sunbeam Torino Precision Grinder is
constructed with quality die-cast metal
components and includes many features that
make grinding coffee at home easy so you
can enjoy a lovely fresh cup of coffee every
time. We hope you enjoy your new coffee
grinder and should you need any further
assistance please don’t hesitate to contact

Operating your Torino
Precision Grinder
Before using the coffee grinder, wipe the
base exterior with a damp cloth. Wash the
bean hopper and hopper lid in warm soapy
water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Note: Do not immerse the grind cartridge in
water or any other liquid.
Note: Do not place any parts of the coffee
grinder in the dishwasher.
1. Place the coffee grinder on a dry, level
surface.
2. To attach the bean hopper, align the arrow
on the hopper with the arrow on the top of
the grind cartridge and turn clockwise to
lock. See figure 1.
The grinder will not function without the
hopper in place.
5. Ensure operation dial is off, plug the power
cord into a 230-240V AC power outlet and
switch the power on.
Figure 2
6. Select the grind by turning the grind
adjustment collar to the desired setting,
see figure 2.
Refer to the grind setting table on page 11 to
assist you in selecting the correct grind level
for the desired brewing method.
Figure 1
3. Fill the bean hopper with coffee beans.
Tip: To maintain an even weight bearing down
on the burrs, we recommend keeping the
hopper at least half full. This ensures a more
consistent grind is achieved.
Note: This coffee grinder is intended to grind
whole coffee beans only.
4. Place the hopper lid onto the bean hopper
and open the hopper closure arm.

The range of 30 grind settings allows for
precision adjustment. The coffee maker has
control of the particle size and ultimately the
quality of the resulting brew.
Some things to remember when using the
coffee grinder;
• The smaller the particle size the longer it
will take to grind.
• After long periods of using the finer
settings we recommend removing the grind
cartridge and sweeping away any residual
coffee to avoid clogging. See the Care
and Cleaning section on page 12 for more
details.
Tips
1. Select the correct grind for the brewing
method you are using. 30 grind settings
are available to ensure precision
adjustment. The lower settings deliver
finer grinds while the higher settings
deliver coarser grinds. It is important
to experiment with the grind settings to
achieve the ideal brew that best suits your
palate.
®
2. Coffee that is ground too fine for a
particular brewing process will result in
over-extraction and the coffee will taste
bitter. On the other hand, coffee that is too
coarse for a particular brewing method will
result in under-extraction and the coffee
will be thin and poor in flavour.
3. Once coffee is ground it quickly loses its
flavour and aroma. For the best results we
recommend you grind beans immediately
prior to brewing.
4. Buy fresh whole coffee beans weekly.
5. To retain freshness, store whole coffee
beans in an airtight container in a cool,
dark, dry place. It is not recommended
that you store beans in the grinder’s bean
hopper for a prolonged period.
6. To ensure the best results from the coffee
grinder clean the bean hopper and conical
burrs regularly.
11
Care and Cleaning
Important Notes:
• Spots and marks on the surface of the
burrs are part of the hardening process.
These marks do not affect the performance
of the grinder or the taste of the coffee.
• Ensure the coffee grinder is switched off
and unplugged from the power outlet prior
to cleaning.
• Do not immerse the motor base of the
coffee grinder in water.
• Do not immerse any part of the grind
cartridge in water or any other liquid.
• Do not place any parts of the coffee grinder
in the dishwasher.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring
pads.
Cleaning the motor base and bean hopper
Cleaning the burrs
If the coffee grinder is used frequently (every
day), the burrs need to be cleaned every
three weeks to ensure best performance of
the coffee grinder. Regular cleaning helps
the burrs achieve consistent grinding results,
which is especially important when grinding
coffee for espresso.
1. Close the hopper closure arm and purge
the grinder by turning on until no more
grinds come out.
2. Ensure the coffee grinder is switched off
and unplugged from the power outlet.
Remove the bean hopper from the motor
base, see figure 8.
3. To remove the grind cartridge, press and
hold down the ‘RELEASE’ button on the
top of the grinder base and with the other
hand hold the cartridge grip tabs and turn
anti-clockwise, see figure 9.
Note: Using the cartridge grip tabs enables
removal of the grind cartridge without
changing your grind settings.
Figure 8
1. Close the hopper closure arm and remove
the bean hopper from the motor base, see
figure 8. Store unused beans in an airtight
container to preserve their freshness.
2. Wipe the motor base exterior with a damp
cloth and dry.
3. Wash the bean hopper in warm soapy
water, then rinse and dry.

closure arm and turn on the grinder.
Note: Check the new setting delivers the
required grind before use.
To recalibrate for a finer grind
Note: The grinder is factory set for fine
grinding. Only re-calibrate finer if the 0
setting does not achieve the desired grind
fineness.
6. Rotate the grind adjustment collar to
position 15 on the grind settings,
see figure 12.
7. Lift the recalibration release lever and
remove grind adjustment collar, see figure
13 and 14
8. To make the grind finer, reposition the
collar to setting 17 on the grind settings.
9. Re-assemble the collar by pressing down
the front and then the rear ensuring two
clicks are heard.
10. Attach the hopper and run the grinder to
ensure smooth operation.
Caution: Re-calibrating too fine may cause
burrs to collide resulting in a metallic
grinding noise. If this occurs turn off the
grinder and move to a coarser setting (a
setting towards 30) or re-calibrate for a
coarser grind.
11. Open hopper closure arm and adjust
grind settings to deliver required grind
size.
Note: Further tuning may be required.
