I scored a Nuova Simonelli coffee bean grinder... - decocritter - 01-18-2012 The hopper has a short crack in it, but it is usable, for now. Model is Grinta. So much better than a Krups blade. I vacuumed it out, and started with some dry stale beans to clean it out. It seems to get better with my daily use. I see mixed reports on using the grinder cleaner "beans". It may need burrs, I am not sure. It was $20. I was afraid to spend any more on it since a hopper is not cheap, and neither or burrs. I am wondering if another brand of hopper can be used on it.

Re: I scored a Nuova Simonelli coffee bean grinder... - Tofer - 01-19-2012 I use uncooked minute rice to clean my grinder. Works great, and any leftover "grinds" don't add a noticeable taste to the resulting shot. Nuova Simonelli makes great products; $20 is an amazing steal, even with the cracked hopper. |
