Bean Hopper
Align tabs on the base of the bean hopper and insert hopper into position. Turn the bean hopper dial 90° to lock into position.
Fill with fresh coffee beans and secure lid on top of bean hopper.
The bean hopper can be removed by turning dial anti clockwise and lifting hopper to pull out. The locking system allows you to remove and transfer beans in the hopper to a storage container safely.
Within each Brew Method, Espresso,
Percolator, Filter or Plunger, there is a range of grind size settings. Between each Brew Method the grind size settings will differ. This is due to each method requiring different grind sizes for optimum extraction.
Experiment with different grind size settings by rotating the Grind Size dial to achieve the brew that best suits your taste.

COFFEE TIPS
COFFEE TIPS
MAKING BETTER qUALITy COFFEE
• Freshly ground coffee is the key to making coffee with more flavour and body.
• Coffee flavour and strength is a personal preference. Vary the type of coffee beans, amount of coffee and fineness of grind to achieve the flavour you prefer.
• Use freshly roasted coffee beans with a
‘roasted on’ date to maximise flavour, not a use-by or best before date.
• Use coffee beans between 5 and 20 days after the ‘roasted on’ date for optimal freshness.
• Store coffee beans in a dark, cool and dry place. Vacuum seal if possible.
• Buy in small batches to reduce the storage time and store no more than one week’s supply at any time.
• Once coffee is ground, it quickly loses its flavour and aroma. For the best results, grind beans immediately before brewing.
• Do not store beans in the bean hopper.
Place them back in an airtight container.
• When storing the appliance, run grinder empty to clear ground beans left in chamber.
• Run grinder for 2 seconds to purge some coffee before each use, for maximum freshness.
• Clean the bean hopper and conical burrs regularly.
PLUNGER COFFEE
Follow these easy steps for a great cup:
1. Using a variable temperature kettle, heat the appropriate volume of water to 95˚C.
This is an ideal temperature for brewing coffee. Never using boiling water.
2. Select Grind Size setting 58.
3. Select the number of cups you are brewing.
Adjust the amount of coffee to suit the strength you prefer.
4. Place the ground coffee in the plunger vessel.
5. Pour the heated water into the plunger in a swirling manner to ensure all the ground coffee is soaked & the plunger vessel is full.
The ‘bloom’ (expanding coffee & gases) should reach the top of the plunger.
6. Using a timer, wait 4 minutes.
7. Using a spoon, break the ‘crust’ (the bloom becomes dense & a bit hard).
8. Insert the plunger & carefully press down.
9. Do not press too hard. Gently release pressure by pulling up slightly and press down again if you have pressed too hard.
