Product Details
Burr Grinding System
The KG79 uses two flat stainless steel grinding wheels that crush beans uniformly without blade-style chopping. This burr grinding system avoids overheating and preserves the full aroma of your coffee — essential for espresso, drip, pour over and French press. The upper grinding wheel is removable for ease of cleaning, and a cleaning brush is included in the box.
16 Grind Settings & Cup Selector
Sixteen adjustable grind settings on the fineness selector give total control from fine espresso powder to coarser grinds for cafetière or filter coffee. The cup selector dial lets you choose between 2 and 12 cups — the grinder automatically stops once the selected quantity of beans has been processed, so you grind only what you need with no waste.
Safety & Convenience
A dual safe system shuts off the grinding wheels automatically if either the bean hopper or the ground coffee container is removed during operation. Transparent, removable containers let you monitor grinding progress and access beans or grounds easily. Sure-grip knobs, soft-touch controls and self-contained cord storage keep the KG79 practical on any kitchen counter.
How to Use
- Fill: Add coffee beans to the transparent bean hopper (up to 120 g).
- Set cups: Turn the cup selector to match the number of cups you are brewing (2–12).
- Set grind: Adjust the fineness selector to your desired setting — fine for espresso, medium for drip, coarse for French press.
- Grind: Place the ground coffee container, then press on to start. The grinder stops automatically at the selected cup quantity.
- Clean: Remove the upper burr and brush out grounds periodically for best performance.
