HINTS FOR GRINDING COFFEE BEANS
• Most beans require only 10-30 seconds to grinding.
• The maximum capacity of approximately 3/4 cup of coffee beans will yield ground coffee
for 10-12 cups of brewed coffee.
•Store coffee beans in an airtight container inside the freezer for up to two months. Coffee
beans can be ground while frozen.
GRINDING HERBS, SPICES AND NUTS
You may use your grinder for grinding most herbs, spices, and nuts. Follow directions for
grinding coffee beans and grind for 5-10 seconds. For large pieces, pulse the grinder.
However, you may want to consider purchasing a separate grinder for herbs, spices and
nuts since the flavor of the coffee may be affected.
HINTS FOR GRINDING HERBS, SPICES AND NUTS
• Do not attempt to grind anything oily or extremely hard such as chocolate, cinnamon,
whole cloves or nutmeg.
• Do not use to puree soft foods or attempt to make pastes from seeds, such as sesame
or sunflower.
• Do not attempt to grind grains such as corn, wheat, rice, rye, or barley.
• Rinse and pat dry herbs before grinding.
