How to Assemble a Hand Coffee Grinder

Hand coffee grinders, also known as manual coffee grinders, come in a variety of shapes and sizes. However, the same basic components of the device are always the same. It has a crank, a holding compartment for the coffee beans, blades or burrs that cut or grind the coffee beans and a holding container to catch the ground coffee. Quality hand coffee grinders can grind enough beans to make about six cups of coffee.

Instructions

1. Place the burrs or blades into their holding place in the hand coffee grinder's grinding section. They should slip into notches easily.

2. Attach the grinder to the compartment that catches the coffee grounds. It should twist on to the bottom of the grinder.

3. Attach the holding compartment for the coffee beans on top of the grinder.

4. Push the crank through the hole in the top of the bean holding compartment and click it into place. Turn the crank to grind the coffee beans.
