How Do I Clean My Espresso Grinder?

Grinder Cleaning Guide

How do you ensure that the single-origin Ethiopian you just picked up doesn’t taste like last week’s Sumatra? Make sure old coffee residue isn’t coating the grinder’s interior. Old coffee grounds can easily become lodged in the nooks and crannies of a grinder’s hopper and burrs, which interfere with the flavor of future brews. And clean grinder burrs and casings help extend the life of a grinder.

  • STEP 1 - Empty our all of the coffee from your grinder hopper and chute.
  • STEP 2 - Using Urnex Grindz pour the recommended dosage into the hopper for your grinder type. 1 capful for espresso grinders and 2 capfuls for bulk/grocery style grinders.
  • STEP 3 - Adjust the grinder to a medium setting.
  • STEP 4 - Grinder the cleaning product through the grinder like you would with coffee beans.
  • STEP 5 - Add twice as much coffee to the hopper as Grindz. Grind through until no yellow Grindz residue is visible.
  • STEP 6 - Wipe out the inside of your bean hopper. Done!
