Saeco M50 delivers quality, style and
superior performance capturing the essence
of the commercial kitchen. Inspired by heavy
-duty equipment found in restaurants, cafes
and bars, the Saeco M50® is built to last.
It brings together a range of appliances
designed to expertly create authenc café
food and beverages at home.
Uncompromising blends of stainless steel
and die-cast alloy characterise the range.
This, combined with advanced technology
and funconal design, guarantee that each
product will surpass expectaons.
When making coffee regardless of the brewing
method the flavour of the resulng 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 con-
dion of the grinder and the actual design of
the burr mechanism within the grinder.
The Saeco M50® grinder features tool hardened
steel conical burrs for extra long life. The conical
burr design ensures that the parcle size of the
coffee is consistent and even. This is especially
important for espresso, if the parcle size
of the coffee is uniform equal amounts of the
coffee’s aromac profile will be extracted.
If, however, the parcle size of the coffee
varies some parcles will be over-extracted
and some will be under-extracted, resulng in
a poor tasng coffee.
®
Another advantage of the conical burr design
is its slow rotang operaon. This combined
with a belt-driven motor, minimises heat
transfer to the burrs and thus protects the
aromac profile of the coffee and ulmately
enhances the quality of the resulng brew.
The Saeco M50 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 me.

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 aach 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 funcon without the
hopper in place.
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.
