Any suggestions on how to remove the cup grinder from the angle grinder? I only tightened it snug, but after using, it's stuck on the threaded arbor.

I've never really had a problem removing it. You need to hold down the button on the grinder to keep it locked in place then spin the cup. Maybe get a large pair of channel locks to help spin the cup off. Good luck...

There's a device on top that you tighten or loosen to adjust the coarseness of the grind. After owning for 6 months, I would not recommend this product.

Since I use mine just for coffee, I can only answer for that. After grinding, I unplug it. Then, take a soft brush and brush it out. Then wipe it with a cloth dampened with vinegar.As far as I know the blades are not removable. I've heard some say they take a piece of crusty bread and grind it. This takes care of any coffee residue. IT's a great little grinder, by the way. I love it.

I'm not sure but it sounds as though the grinder gear may be gunked up. Do you remove and clean everything after each use? Try cleaning things as well as possible, especially the gear in bottom of the grinder. If that doesn't work I'm afraid I can't help. Good luck and happy java!

I had to do it yesterday. My husband tried grinding very old beans (as it turned out) and almost killed our grinder. I watched a couple excellent YouTubes on cleaning the Bodum and took it apart, prying out the rock-like beans caught in the blades, vacuuming everything very well. Once you take off the hopper off, the insides pull straight up, easily. Hope this helps.

Ditto...the same happened to me. I had mine replaced once. I ended up giving the grinder away once I found out that this grinder can't grind fine enough for my espresso machine. The water just blasted thru the portafilter too fast even when I had grind on finest setting.

1st try to removing the cup. Hold the cup level in the palm of your hand then reinstall making sure that the cup is aligned properly to fasten to the threads by turning clockwise to fasten.

there is a picture of a hand tool on the box so why would this NOT be for hand tools? and if the guard is taken off the 4 1/2 right angle grinder i dont know why it would not work.

When I use this grinder, I hold it in one hand while I turn the crank with the other hand. To keep the whole thing from spinning in my grip, I have a wide rubber band around the top reservoir. I have not had a problem with the crank being loose on the central shaft of this grinder.

I did the same thing. Then I read the Amazon reviews and realized I should have just taken off the top. So I did that, emptied all the peppercorns out, and then it was a lot easier to push the grinder bur in far enough to get the Phillips head screw to connect to the center shaft. I'm not really the "handy" type but this seems to have worked.

Even if you find a way to do this, it would be very dangerous. Angle grinders are cheap, I recommend investing in one.

There is a round silver screw on the bottom that you turn to adjust the grind. Turn it clockwise for a finer grind, counterclockwise for a coarser grind. This works on my mill. If yours doesn't work there's something wrong with it.

I don't know what the problem is ... have never had it. Can only guess that you are not attaching it properly. Try to be sure it is evenly hooked into both the main grooves (and not filled over the top with coffee) before you turn it, and lock it in. I love our machine. If you clean it each time (run it through without coffee a little), it should last many years. pg

It is a notched disc on the main axle. There should be a small lever/spring that secures it in position. Lift that up when you want to adjust it.You can keep tightening the knob until the grinder binds against itself. I also found that some periodic tightening is necessary.

I have never had a serious problem with the grinder such as yours, but I would assume if you contact the manufacturer they would replace your product.

Weigh and grind what you need completely, remove the empty bean holder, and use a brush to clean the burrs and chamber. Mainly an issue for finer grinds. For drip coffee, the finest of the coarse settings works, and tipping the grinder while it finishes grinding and giving it a slap empties the chamber. That won't work for finer grinds, and you'll need a brush. The brush provided is inadequate, so you'll have to buy one.

Try this: the bottom of the container has a small opening which the brewed coffee comes out of, take a toothbrush to it. I had the same problem, had a grain of coffee stuck in there! Good luck!
