GRINDING TIMES:

Your Cuisinart® Supreme Grind™ Automatic Burr Mill is fully automatic. There are 6 settings per grind type, and the grind chamber holds enough ground coffee for up to 32 cups. The unit is set for medium grind settings, which takes approximately 40 seconds to grind coffee for 12 cups, and approximately 55 seconds 18 cups.

When choosing fine settings, you may need to set the cup selector at a higher number of cups to get the desired amount of coffee, as fine grinds are very compact. The opposite is true for coarse settings. You may need to set the cup selector at a larger number of cups to get the desired amount of coffee, as coarse grinds are very loose. To determine the right grind consistencies and quantities, experiment with different grinds and coffee types to suit your taste.

CLEANING/STORAGE INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Be sure that grinder plug has been removed from outlet.
2. All removable parts are dishwasher safe on the top rack. Do not put parts on bottom shelf.
3. Never immerse the grinder base unit in water or other liquid. To clean, wipe with wet cloth and use cleaning brush to clean grind release area.
4. Store excess cord by wrapping cord around the tabs provided under the base of the unit.
5. Any other servicing of this product should be performed by an authorized service representative.
