Setting up

  1. Place the grinder on a stable surface and fit the bellows hopper and catch cup or portafilter holder.
  2. Weigh each dose of beans before grinding – these are single-dose grinders.

Grinding and adjusting safely

  1. Always switch the grinder on first, then adjust the grind dial while it is running.
  2. Never run it at the finest setting (or below), where the burrs can touch and be damaged.
  3. Use RDT: mist the beans with 1–2 drops of water per 18–20 g dose to cut static and clumping.
  4. At the end of every grind, while the burrs are still spinning, pump the bellows firmly until nothing more comes out.
  5. DF83V: choose a motor speed between 300 and 1,600 rpm to suit espresso or filter.

Cleaning the chute and ionizer probes

  1. Every few days, push a thin brush up the exit chute and spin it gently to clear build-up and clean the static-reducing probes. Compressed air also works.
  2. Avoid metal tools inside the chute.
  3. If grounds pack up, run 2–3 seconds at a coarser setting while pumping the bellows.
  4. Turin’s official ionizer video (above) shows the probe clean step by step. For a full clean, Turin’s guide covers removing the upper burr carrier – unplug first, or let us do it at service.

Burrs and servicing

  • Burrs wear slowly. Have them checked when the grind becomes inconsistent or slow, or with your machine service: every 12 months for home use, every 6 months in cafés.
