Comandante Grinder Cleaning Guide:
It is important to first read your coffee grinders manual prior to cleaning as most grinders will recommend a procedure specific to that coffee grinder to avoid damage.
- Start by disassembling your Comandante C40 coffee grinder, follow the coffee grinders manual and avoid disassembling further than needed. For instance on the Comandante C40 grinder it is important not to remove the screws as this affects the alignment of the outer burr set.
- Brush all the components including the burr set to remove fine coffee grounds, oils and chaff.
- Use an air duster to blow the coffee grounds out of the chamber and then repeat step 2 and this step until there is minimal coffee grounds remaining.
- Using a slightly damp cloth wipe away any remaining coffee oils and dirt stuck on the internal grinder body.

STOP MESSY GRINDING WITH RDT
Ross Droplet Technique 'RDT' refers to adding a small amount of water to your coffee beans prior to grinding. This additional moisture helps to reduce static build up in your coffee grinder and can drastically reduce the amount of mess while grinding coffee beans.
COFFEE GRINDERS - BARISTA BASICS
-
ELECTRIC VS HAND GRINDER?
Electric coffee grinders are quick and easy to use and make grinding espresso particularly easy. Hand grinders on the other hand are slower and demand more work.
But generally speaking a hand grinder that is the same price as an electric grinder will tend to perform better. This is because anything electronic and requires a motor will increase the cost of the final product. -
GRIND SIZE DISTRIBUTION
Grind size distribution refers to the range and consistency of particle sizes produced when your coffee is ground. A 'uniform grind size distribution' ensures that all particles are similar in size, leading to an even extraction and cleaner tasting coffee. Variations in grind size distribution can make your coffee taste muddy as some particle are extracting more than others.
-
CONICAL VS FLAT BURRS
Conical burrs offer efficient & low-heat grinding, making them ideal for home use and are commonly found in hand grinders. Flat burrs generally provide a more uniform grind size and are commonly used in electric coffee grinders, flat burrs are favoured by professionals for their precision and consistency particularly when grinding on finer grind sizes.

SPECIALIST OR GENERALIST
While some grinders can produce a range of different grind sizes it is important to know that they may not be the best quality of grind size. Depending on what types of coffee you're wanting to make, you may want to consider opting for a 'espresso grinder' or a 'filter grinder' rather than an 'all-rounder coffee grinder'
