This video is fantastic. I’ve had mine for over five years and not one cleaning

Thanks!

喜歡1Z K-Ultra！
還在尋找等待新出一支1Z改款讓歸零動作能像泰摩栗子X-lite這麽簡單就更完美了。

Great Video very informative .
Just a matter of interest how often would you recommend doing this ?
Thank You 🙏

[@brewcoffeehome]

Actually the retention is really low, so there won't be lots of leftover grinds within the grinder. I usually clean it every month. If you grind darker roasted beans, I recommend cleaning it more frequently.

[@mikeyfelley]

@@brewcoffeehome Brilliant. Thanks for your reply it’s much appreciated

[@Bassel74]

What's the best.?

Can we remove the bottom of burr set for K-Plus? I tried to twist. But doesn't seem to work

[@brewcoffeehome]

Please check 1:24 in the video. Are you referring to that burr set? If so, you need to twist it clockwise; it's pretty tight. I don't usually remove it every time I clean the burr.

[@jht54321]

@@brewcoffeehome Yea, you are right. I was trying to indicate lower burr ring. But mind was extremely tight so i am not sure if is tight or it can't be removed for a K-Plus model. Hence i didnt try further, worried that I might spoil it.

ZP6 is also K series?

[@lsh-zi2lc]

Yes, just followed this for my Zp6.

[@mohamedarafa9399]

Bearing has specific direction?

[@brewcoffeehome]

No, both sides will work for the bearing.

[@george5120]

First things first:
Why should this grinder ever need cleaning and how often? Cleaning looks like a lot of work and requires skill. As bad as disassembling and cleaning a gun.

[@bcssylf]

why not just soak it in water? doesnt seem like dry brushing or paper towels will remove everything.

[@brewcoffeehome]

The metal parts may rust if soaked in water, and they're hard to dry thoroughly. I just need to clear out the grinds and wipe off the coffee oils. :)

The manufacture directs not to get grinders wet.
