The method to clean and maintain your coffee bean grinder machine may vary between models. We always recommend checking your products user manual for specific instructions. 

1. Unplug the coffee bean grinder from the mains power.
2. Empty the ground coffee container after each use, this will prevent a build-up of oil and stale residue.
3. Remove and wipe clean the hopper (coffee bean container) with a clean, non-abrasive towel. Avoid using a damp cloth as this can cause coffee beans to stick and jam the grinder burrs.
4. Using a dry brush or toothbrush clean and remove any loose grounds from the grinding burrs, the grinding chute and the ground coffee container.
