BeaniGrix

For French press, use settings 19-28 (coarse to very coarse range). Start at setting 22 and adjust finer or coarser based on your taste—finer for stronger extraction, coarser to reduce sediment.

Rotate the cup selector dial to your desired amount (2-12 cups). Press the power button once, and the grinder automatically times the grinding session, stopping when the correct amount is ground.

Yes, the flat metal burrs and removable grinding core handle oily beans well. Clean the burrs weekly with dark roasts to prevent oil buildup and maintain optimal performance and flavor.

The BeaniGrix operates at moderate volume, comparable to most electric grinders. It's noticeably quieter than blade grinders but louder than manual hand grinders, typically completing grinding in 10-20 seconds.

The powder jar detaches easily from the base. Wipe it with a dry cloth after each use, or wash with warm soapy water weekly. Ensure it's completely dry before reattaching.

Flat burrs (like in BeaniGrix) crush beans between two parallel discs, creating exceptionally uniform particle size ideal for French press. They produce slightly less heat and deliver more consistent extraction than conical burrs.

The BeaniGrix is designed exclusively for coffee beans. Grinding spices, nuts, or other materials can damage the burrs, affect coffee flavor, and void the warranty.
