How to clean an espresso or coffee grinder

Wednesday, November 5, 2008 2:07 No Comments

Coffee grinders are notoriously difficult to clean because most parts cannot be washed with water.  And washing with a damp cloth often leaves coffee streaks everywhere and leaves your grinder looking far dirtier than it was when you started.

Because the coffee dust is dry, you can simply take a pastry brush or a clean unused makeup brush and brush the inside of the coffee grinder.  It will easily brush all the dust and coffee particles from the inside and especially around the hard-to-reach grinder blades, which could be dangerous to clean otherwise.
