A coffee hopper is basically a storage container for coffee beans which are ready to be ground. For the domestic grinders, such as the Mignon, you have a small square hopper. For the commercial models, such as the Olympus, you have a rounded off hopper. Cleaning tip: use Puly hopper cleaner to get the coffee grease from the in and outside of the grinder.
