  • Poured espresso shot into grinder? Am I done for? :(

    So in a mad rush, I pulled my first shot and then took the same cup and poured it into the bean hopper of my Eureka Silenzio. I was supposed to pour in my 20g of beans from the steel cup.

    I've tried pouring it all out, and will do a full clean out.

    Am I doomed?

    Probably not, but...
    Disconnect from power supply (hopefully you already have).
    Find online video on cleaning Silenzio burrs.
    Remove hopper, remove burrs, rinse/wipe/dry everything you can access(I did say disconnect from power supply didn’t I?)
    Place grinder body and all parts in the hot sun for the day.(or at least a couple of hours)
    Put back together tonight.
    Use hand grinder or hammer if necessary to make this mornings coffee.
    Never tell anyone..
    I swear I didn’t actually pour half a litre of water into my old sunbeam grinder instead of my Gaggia water tank.
    It never happened.
