How to keep your Anfim coffee grinder clean
Keeping your Anfim coffee grinder clean is one of the most underestimated procedures. But a filthy coffee hopper or coffee grinder does not look good to your customers. Besides the fact that it is food related. Cleaning the outside of the coffee grinder can easily be done with Puly hopper cleaner and a Brooks Microfibre cloth.
Cleaning the inside of the coffee grinder can take, initially, a bit more work. If you have never cleaned your grinding chamber, you need to do this first. First take the power plug out of the socket. Then you can remove the upper burr and clean the grinding chamber from old coffee. This can be done with a brush and Puly Bar cleaner. Once you have that done you need to run Puly Grind in regular intervals true the coffee grinder. This will remove all the old coffee grounds from the coffee grinder.
