1211Do not overfill or the grinder could malfunction and/or overflow.NOTEWe suggest not placing too much coffee bean in bean container to avoid the moist of coffee beans. If add more than 200g of coffee beans, this could cause the grinder to malfunction and/or the machine to overflow.NOTEIf you fill beans from the freezer directly into the grinder, moisture will seep into the burrs and the feeder channel. The moisture makes the ground coffee stick in the feeder channel and will clog it up over time.IMPORTANT• For first time use, use the coarsest setting ‒ the largest dot. - For dark oily beans use the coarsest setting. For light, dry beans use the finer settings.- The grind is critical for proper flavor extraction. If the grind is too fine, over extraction and bitterness will result. Too fine a grind may also clog the filter. If grind is too coarse, the water will pass through too quickly and the maximum flavor will not be extracted. Your coffeemaker is preset for medium, the optimal grind for this type of brewing process.• If you buy large portions of beans, separate them into one or two week portions and store them in airtight containers in the freezer. - Preserve freshness by minimizing exposure to air, light, and moisture. Once beans are removed from the freezer, keep them in a sealed container at room temperature, since damaging condensation can occur when beans move from cold to warmer temperatures.- Do not store beans in the freezer directly.• Some experts feel freezing dark-roast beans can cause oils to coagulate; others disagree. You'll have to decide that one for yourself!- Your coffee machine burr grinder is calibrated to work with all different kinds of roasts. Dark, oily beans will leave some oil residue in the feeder channel. Over time this can slow down the flow of ground coffee.Deep • Do not use sugar or powder coated beans in the grinder (e.g. cinnamon, chocolate, vanilla etc). Coated beans can pit the bean container. The coating might stick to the burrs and, over time, will reduce the perfor-mance of the grinding mechanism.• Do not add any liquid flavorings or syrups to the beans.roasted beans are not suitable for this coffee machine, and it is easy to damage the grinder.under MAKING COFFEE, and later adjust the amount to your taste.6.2 Operation Tips6.
