How to maintain the frequency of the bean grinder, how to clean the cutterhead, how to clean the cutter head.

Daily friends at home, whether there will be this situation: after a cup of coffee began to enjoy, drink another coffee bean taste, began to doubt their taste. This may be your grinder residual pot of coffee in the fine powder, resulting in coffee flavor "mixed".

A friend asked Qianjie,"Can I clean the bean grinder with water?" EMM On this issue, it is better to listen to the daily maintenance and cleaning process of the bean grinder.

After the bean grinder is used, the fine powder generated by friction will adhere to the metal grinding disc, and a lot of residual powder will accumulate on the powder bin and grinding disc with each use. If not cleaned, coffee extraction and flavor will be affected.

Deep roast coffee beans have a higher oil yield, and when grinding with a cutter head, the more oil will accumulate. It may cause channel blockage, which in turn shortens the service life of the bean grinder.

The bean grinder on the market is mainly divided into hand-operated bean grinder and electric bean grinder. No matter which kind of equipment, the daily cleaning and maintenance of the grinding disc are essential.

Daily simple cleaning.

After each brew, rotate the grinder to remove visible coffee residue with a brush and a balloon, including the bean bin, powder outlet and powder container.

And placed in a dry environment, so as not to damp the bean grinder. Electric grinder needs to pay attention to the aging of wires and sockets.

Clean without disassembly

If it is not cleaned for a long time, gently wipe the inner wall of the powder bin with your index finger, and you can find a clear powder layer that smells like oil consumption. That means your grinder has absorbed too much fine powder and needs a deeper cleaning.

Due to the different precision of each appliance, friends who are not familiar with machinery dare not disassemble themselves. (Also worried about not being able to put it back)

At this time, we can use a special cleaning powder pill (cleaning tablet) for grinding and cleaning, and put the powder pill into the bean bin for grinding, so as to "bring out" the stuck coffee fine powder.

When cleaning powder pills are used, pay attention to the grinding degree not to be too fine, otherwise the cleaning powder is easy to remain in the grinding disc.

Removal Deep Cleaning

When grinding, there is a sense of unsmooth jamming, and the coffee powder is obviously uneven in thickness, thus affecting the extraction of coffee. This may be blocked by hard particles in the cutter head, or the blade may be worn.

After disassembling the bean grinder, check whether the cutter disc is blocked. If not, pay attention to the degree of wear. Under normal circumstances, after 2 years of daily use, the cutter head will have a certain loss, the accuracy of grinding will decrease, and the fine powder will increase. Regular inspection and replacement is required.

After inspection, the grinding disc with no problem can be cleaned deeply. The cutter head can be washed with clean water, but it must be completely dried before installation, otherwise it will affect the subsequent use.

It is recommended that professional disassembly and inspection be conducted to avoid damage or loss of the core parts of the bean grinder. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the bean grinder can directly affect the quality of the coffee in the cup.
