ABOUT OTTO
WHAT MAKES OTTO SPECIAL?
OTTO is the only product that mills and fills at the touch of a button. OTTO automatically
mills your material to a perfect grind and fills your sachet/paper cone in seconds.
OTTO has a patented SMART Milling Technology™ that uses artificial intelligence (AI)
that senses the material and adjusts the direction, speed and pressure to create perfect
size and texture every single time.
OTTO also has a Perfect Fill System™ that ensures your grind passes neatly and evenly
into the sachet/paper cone with no hassle and no mess.

OTTO™ is a unique home automatic incense and potpourri maker. OTTO allows you to mill
your favorite dried flowers, incense, herbs, and other natural products to create sachets or
paper cones filled with your favorite scents.
OTTO features a SMART Milling Technology™ that uses AI that senses the density and
consistency of the material you wish to use and adjusts the speed, direction and pressure to
ensure a perfectly even grind. The material then drops through a funnel into the waiting sachet
or paper cone in the O Tube below with no mess and no hassle. It even features the O Funnel
to allow you to dispense ground material into food, a bowl, or anything you can imagine.
Simply remove the O Tube and magnetically attach the O Funnel to the OTTO. Then you can
dispense ground material freely.
OTTO makes aromatherapy easy. Whether you want a lavender sachet for bedtime, a bowl of
eucalyptus and basil for the kitchen, some rose, jasmine and cinnamon for the bath, a burnable
sage smudge stick, or your very own brand of incense, the choice is yours and it’s so easy that
anyone can do it.

HOW OTTO WORKS
Making a sachet or paper cone
1. Make sure that OTTO is fully charged and unplugged.
2. Hold power button in for two seconds to turn power on. OTTO lights up.
3. Insert your sachet or paper cone into the O Tube (OTTO works with any sachet or paper cone that will fit into
the O Tube). Make sure the top of the sachet/paper cone is flush with the top of the O Tube and is not
wrinkled or caved in.
4. Open OTTO by pressing the upper side of the latch and place your dried material evenly onto the
lower milling plate. The plate has a spring below it, so you can push the material down if you want to mill
more at one time. OTTO will mill as much as you can easily fit into the chamber without overflowing it. Close
OTTO.
5. Dock the O Tube magnetically with OTTO and place on table. Keep OTTO upright.
6. Press button to start.
7. OTTO’s SMART Milling Technology™ will sense the material and begin its milling cycle.
8. Tap the entire unit firmly on the table as soon as OTTO starts to mill to make sure the material falls evenly into
the sachet or paper cone.

9. When finished, disconnect the O Tube, remove the sachet or cone, shake like a sugar packet to complete the
pack and then twist to seal the open end.
10. If you desire a more filled paper cone or sachet, feel free to put the cone back into the O Tube and repeat
until full.
EXPERT TIP: If you prefer a very tightly packed sachet/paper cone, put half of the material into OTTO, mill it
and take OTTO off of the O Tube. Use the 4-in-1 Tool to tamp the material deeper into the cone. Then, add
the rest of the material into OTTO and repeat.
Using OTTO without the O Tube
1. Magnetically dock the O Funnel to OTTO.
2. Measure the desired amount of pepper, nuts, dried flowers, any herbs or spice.
3. Place material onto lower milling plate.
4. Position the O Funnel directly over the container into which you wish to mill your material.
5. Press start and wait for the milling cycle to complete. Repeat as desired.

TIPS N TRICKS
Place enough material on the lower milling plate to fill the receptacle to your desired level.
Remember, you’re in control, you don’t have to fill the entire sachet/paper cone.
Try not to overfeed OTTO. If your receptacle does not fully fill after tamping and adding
more material, run again to achieve desired size.
OTTO can be used with any brand of sachet/paper cones. However, banana bros. premium
cones have been designed for a perfect fit…they’re awesome.
If you prefer a tightly filled sachet/paper cone, you might need to run OTTO more than
once. You can always run OTTO, tamp down the material, add more material and run OTTO
a second time or until sufficiently filled.

incense cones and much more go to bananabros.com

OTTO likes to play. Feel free to experiment with your
favorite materials and become your own mixologist.
If the grinder jams, just open OTTO, remove material,
reload and try again.
In the unlikely event that OTTO clogs, firmly tap OTTO on a table
top to clear the mechanism. If that does not work, remove the
lower milling plate and push material through the mechanism
with the 4-in-1 tool.

FAQ’S
What if my sachet/cone is not fully packed as tightly as I like it? You might want to see a doctor about
that. In the meantime, just tap a few times to pack, add more material and run again.
Why is it called a SMART Milling Technology™ with AI? An ordinary grinder doesn’t sense or react to
the material. This can cause balling and clumping, can powderize material or even worse create an
inconsistent grind. The patented SMART Milling Technology™ senses the material as it grinds and
adjusts the direction, speed and pressure to create perfect size and texture every time.
What is the difference between milling and grinding? Milling is a more precise procedure, which
ensures a more consistent size and texture without crushing or creating powder.
What happens if the material sticks to the milling plates? If material is too sticky, you may need to dry
it for a few hours or more before feeding it to OTTO.
How long does it take for OTTO to charge? Although it will feel like forever, it only takes 45-minutes.
How long does the battery last? Way long. A full charge will last at least 20 fills.
Hey, we know it is more fun to watch FAQ’s then to read them.
Go to bananabros.com for videos of all this.

Can I use OTTO for cooking?
I don’t know, can you cook? Of course you can! Use the O Funnel to add herbs and spices directly
to bowls or culinary dishes. Load only as much as needed. Be careful to clean OTTO with isopropyl
alcohol, prior to milling something you plan to ingest. Many aromatherapy materials are toxic if
ingested.
Where can I find replacement parts?
What did you lose now? Its all good! Replacement parts are available for OTTO. Find them at
bananabros.com.
Can I put OTTO in the dishwasher or microwave?
No joke. OTTO is not dishwasher or microwave safe. We have no idea why you would put OTTO in a
microwave, we’re not sure why you mentioned it.
What do I do if my sage smudge stick or incense cone has air pockets?
Just breathe. Then hold it at the end and shake it like a sugar packet. You can also use the 4-in1 Tool
to tamp the material into the sachet/paper cones. Then add more material to fill completely.
Is your sachet/paper cone not filling all the way?
Make sure that you are tapping OTTO as soon as it starts to mill to help the material funnel into the
sachet/paper cones.
