A couple helpful hints for adjusting the appropriate grind:

– For grind to suit an Aeropress^TM, tighten nut all the way, then ease off half a turn
– For French Press, ease off 1.5 turns
– For a v60, tighten the burrs all the way, and then go half a turn back.  Some further adjustment may be required from there depending on the specific beans used.  Suggested ratio is 60g/litre.
– For a moka pot, which is somewhere between drip and espresso, adjust your grind to the finest level (adjust so that the burrs are touching) then open up a notch or two.

And some cleaning tips:

– It’s best to pull the grinder apart and give it a clean every 4 weeks or more often if you are using darker more oily roasts.
– Just use warm, soapy water and an old toothbrush to remove all residual coffee.
– Make sure to rinse with fresh water when finished and allow the parts to fully dry before re-assembling
