Frequently Asked Questions - Grind Aroma OBH NORDICA

How do I set the current time on the Grind Aroma?

Press and hold the HR button for 3 seconds to set the hour, then wait 5 seconds. Then press and hold the MIN button to set the minutes. The time is in 24-hour format.

Can I use pre-ground coffee instead of beans?

Yes. Press the Ground coffee selection button (H8) to activate ground coffee mode. Place the ground coffee in the paper filter, not in the bean container, to avoid damage.

How do I set a preset brewing time?

Press and hold the Preset time button (H5) for 2 seconds. The preset indicator flashes. Use the HR and MIN buttons to set the desired time. Press the preset time button again or wait to save. When the preset time is reached, brewing starts automatically.

Why does my coffee overflow or brew too slowly?

Common causes: too much coffee, grind too fine, or a clogged filter. Ensure you use the correct amount of coffee (1 spoon per cup) and a medium grind. Also check that the paper filter is properly placed and the filter holder is secured.

How do I clean the grinder?

Remove all beans, then run the grinder empty to clear remaining beans. Unplug, remove the bean box by turning anticlockwise, move the grind adjust knob to 'Open', pull out the upper burr, and clean the shaft with the brush. Reassemble in reverse order.

How often should I descale the coffee maker?

Descale when the Descaling indicator appears or when brewing takes longer. Use a descaling solution or vinegar. Fill the water tank, press the descaling button, then press On/Off to start. After descaling, run two cycles with fresh water to rinse.

What type of coffee beans should I use?

Use dry, non-oily beans. Dark roasted or oily beans can clog the grinder and damage the appliance. Avoid beans that feel greasy or have a shiny surface.

Why does the coffee taste bad?

Possible reasons: old or poor-quality beans, wrong grind size, incorrect coffee-to-water ratio, or the machine needs cleaning. Use fresh, quality beans and adjust strength. Also descale and clean regularly.

What safety precautions should I take?

Always unplug before cleaning. Do not immerse in water. The carafe and heating plate become hot; handle only by the carafe handle. Never open the lid during brewing. Keep the appliance out of reach of children under 8.

What does the warranty cover and how long does it last?

OBH Nordica offers a 2-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects. It covers repair or replacement of defective parts. It does not cover misuse, normal wear, or damage from descaling neglect. Proof of purchase is required.
