Before Using Your Grinder Prior to using your Encore grinder for the first time you should wash the bean hopper and ground coffee bin in warm soapy water. See the section on Care and Cleaning for instruction on how to remove and reinstall these parts. There may be some rust on the burrs when you receive your grinder. This is normal and will disappear after a small amount of coffee has been ground. To remove the rust and season the burrs, grind 1/4 pound of coffee and discard.
Setting the Grind Control Slowly rotate the bean hopper clockwise or counter clockwise to align the indicator on the bean hopper with the desired number setting on the grind scale. Select the correct grind for the brew process you are using. 40 grind settings are available. The settings shown in the table below can be used as a general guideline. The actual grind size for a particular setting will vary depending on many factors, including: degree of roast (light vs.
Manual Switch Operation You may rotate the On/Off switch clockwise or counter clockwise from any position without damaging it. The quantity of ground coffee you need depends on the type of bean, coarseness of the grind, brewing method and personal taste. Front Mounted Pulse Button For short duration grinding, the Encore is equipped with a front mounted pulse button. It can be used for grinding directly into an espresso-brewing basket.
Automatic Cleaning A thorough, fast, and easy CLEANING can be accomplished using Grindz™ grinder cleaner. Grindz™ is a product designed to dislodge coffee particles and absorb and remove odors and coffee oil residue. Simply place one packet of Grintz™ into the empty grinder hopper. Adjust grind setting to 20, and operate as if grinding coffee beans until all of the Grindz™ has been ground. Once complete, we recommend passing about 4 Tbs. of coffee through the grinder to remove any Grindz™ residue.
Cleaning the Burrs If the grinder is used daily, the burrs should be cleaned every few weeks. Cleaning enables the burrs to achieve the most consistent grind possible. Cleaning also removes coffee oils, which can degrade the flavor of the ground coffee. Do not wash the burr. Remove the Ring Burr Pull the silicone seal off the top of the ring Burr. Remove the ring burr by lifting it straight up out of the grinder by the lifting tabs.
Replacing the Ring Burr Ensure that the black adjustment ring is rotated counterclockwise as far as it will go. Replace the burr by lining up the red tab on the burr with the rectangular cutout on the black adjustment ring. Wiggle and push down firmly on the ring burr to ensure that it seats properly. After replacing the burr, replace the silicone seal by lining up the two slots in the silicone seal with the small tabs on the top of the ring burr and slide the seal onto the ring burr.
