Troubleshooting
Grinder does not turn on
Check if the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Ensure the On-/Off-switch is in the 'On' position.
Inconsistent grind size
Ensure the bean container is not overfilled. Check for any obstructions in the grinding mechanism. Clean the grinding burrs thoroughly as per care instructions. Experiment with slightly coarser or finer settings.
Coffee grounds are clumpy
This can be due to humidity or static. Ensure the antistatic insert is in place. Try a slightly coarser grind setting. Clean the grinding components.
Grinder stops mid-grind
