Tech Tip: How to Clean the Mazzer Major Commercial Coffee Grinder

Each time we provide an overview of a new coffee grinder like the Mazzer Major, we feel the need to also get down to the nitty gritty and show you how to take it apart, care for it, look for signs of wear & tear, then put it back together again. A lot of our day-to-day work involves helping people get the most from their coffee gear, and one big way that you can do that is by keeping it enviably clean. Especially if you are running a coffee-oriented business! Day in and day out, you're serving up delicious coffee to your adoring customers and you want to make sure that it's fresh and fully represents what you're all about, right? Taking care to regularly clean your grinder's bean hopper, burr set, grinder chute and doser chamber (if applicable) will go a long way to improving both the consistency and the flavor of your espresso. In this comprehensive how-to video, Brandon guides us through how to perform regular care and maintenance on the Mazzer Major. Watch him take it apart, assess the internals, clean and then re-assemble this popular commercial coffee grinder. If you own or work for a business that uses a Mazzer Major in your operation -- and you're not performing similar maintenance on a regular basis -- might we recommend that today's the day you change that trend? Follow Brandon's guidance and you'll see how simple it is to do so.
