It’s a fact that if you do not clean your coffee grinder on a regular basis it will add impurities to the coffee which will leave a stale smell or taste that has developed due to the build-up of oils. Cleaning your commercial coffee grinder on a regular basis will help ensure you to have better tasting coffee or espresso.
Step 1: Cleaning the hopper of your commercial coffee grinder
Close the gate of the hopper, and lift the hopper off of your commercial coffee grinder. Pour the remaining coffee beans into an airtight container. Then wash the hopper with warm soapy water, and towel dry. Do not put the damp hopper back on the commercial coffee grinder. If you do, drops of water will trickle down into the commercial coffee grinder and rust the grinding burrs.
Step 2: Empty the chamber of your commercial coffee grinder if you have a doser grinder
Empty the chamber by pulling the dosing lever repeatedly until all of the ground coffee has been removed. Put the ground coffee in an airtight container for storage.
Step 3: Brush the grinder
By using your grinder brush, brush the grinder out so that the grinding burrs and chamber internals are dry and clean.
Step 4: Buff the grinder body
You can use some paper towels to buff up the grinder body so that it will look spotless, shiny, and good-as-new.
