How easy is it to clean this mill? I'd like to use it for coffee, flours and nuts/seeds. Can you get it completely clean relatively easily?

I have never ground coffee, but I have ground many nut butters. De-assembly is relatively easy, and cleaning all of the removable parts is simple. Cleaning inside the mill where the screw drive is, is sort of difficult. Maybe 5 minutes worth of effort. If you use water, make sure to completely dry it. Regardless of the effort you may put into cleaning, this product is awesome. Very worthwhile.

It is very easy to clean if you never get it wet. It is meant to dry grind grain and afterwards I just blow the dust off of mine for use the next time. The cracked corn for the chickens doesn't matter and the grain I grind for meal gets cooked. After use I store it in a plastic bag so it doesn't get dusty and use a dry paint brush to brush off any other debri

Haven't yet done that despite using it twice a day for months. Assume when I feel it necessary I'll take off the rubber base and wash the glass part by hand. Wouldn't think it necessary to wash the grinder part. The grinder part may need to be brushed off from time to time; but to date it has been grinding consistently.

I find it great to grind a lot at once because I find the cleaning tedious. I see some people put theirs in the dishwasher but I thought that wasn't recommended so I hand wash then towel dry and use the food grade silicone before reassembling.

Very easy to clean. The ground coffee goes into a plastic bin that comes out. Do you can hand wash. The outside is also easy to clean. I use a paper towel with a little glass cleaner on it for the stainless part. Hope this helps. Love this grinder!

I use it every morning, however, didn't actually need to clean it, as yet - I usually leave beans in the top compartment and grind only as much coffee as I need, discard any leftovers. The grinder is still works well and looks great. I would probably use a brush, if I had to clean it (inside).

I haven't really needed to clean mine so far. I only grind coffee in it and it's stayed pretty clean. I don't mind a little dust. That said, if I had to clean it, I'd just wipe it off with a damp rag.

I have the Nutrimill, it is easy to clean and it is practical to use I have used the wondermill before it is also easy to use the only problem I had with it that when you want to grind more than 3 lb the flower starts coming from the filter and if you use it inside you will see it allover the kitchen.

It is actually quite easy to take apart. In order to use a shop vac, you do need to remove the grind cover. Then you can use a standard vacuum cleaner or shop vac to complete the process. The instructions were easy to follow. I have had mine over a year now and have really enjoyed how well it grinds the coffee. No powder like in a chopper.

You just have to clean the chute once a week and you should be fine. The chute gets clogged from the oily coffee beans and if you don't clean it out, then the coffee grounds have no where to go, backing up into the grinder, which buts added stress on it, potentially burning it out. I've had my machine for many years without a problem. I love it.

The grinder is a self-contained removable unit in two pieces, so it's relatively easy to remove and we clean ours under the kitchen faucet with sprayer. Sometimes, ground coffee and the odd, unground bean gets caught in the corner, but other than that, it's easy to clean. Coffee grinds and is blown out of the grinder into the basket, so there are two different areas of the coffee maker that you have to clean. The grinder is up top, the basket is in the middle and swings out. More than you wanted to know, I suspect.

well it is easy to clean to me. The coffee residue will be in a cake form so what you need to do is put the coffee cake in the trash can or save it for other use. Every part else can be rinse with water. Hope this helps you. :)

I have this grinder and like it very much. It is easy to clean, lift out the top of the grinder and use a coffee grinder brush for cleaning the attached part of the grinder and the part of the grinder that lifts out. I turn my unit upside down and remove any remaining coffee grinds using the coffee grinder brush. This brush can be purchased at Amazon.

Personally, I clean mine after about 5 to 6 uses with just a damp paper towel. This machine is very easy to clean. I was worried that the oil reside would burn or cake onto the kettle or machine, but that is Not the case at all, which is one of the many reasons why I would recommend this machine!

I just hand wash the parts inside or put in dishwasher. I use paper filters so coffee grinds come out easy with filter. Makes good coffee but it's hard to see the water line inside. Hope this helps.

I only use mine to grind coffee so I have not cleaned it yet after one month of use. The blade does not detach from the unit and it says not to immerse it in water so it might be difficult to clean thoroughly. I bought mine used for under $10, so for that price I might suggest buying more than one for multiple purposes.

Not too hard to clean but it is important to throughly clean it regularly, after each use if possible. The hardest part to clean is the kettle but again with consistent maintenance it's not bad. The unpopped kernels fall into a tray that slides right out to dump, and the rest just needs wiped out. We use soapy water on a cloth then wipe it out with a wet cloth & let it air dry. Hope that helps
