Can the burrs be removed for cleaning?

As the others have said (and one person already provided detailed info), the answer is yes -- dismantling and cleaning is quite easy. I also enjoy the quality of the grind and the features that enable one to not only set the fineness of the grind but also the number of cups. For my 5-cup, automatic-drip coffee maker, using a rich-tasting medium-roast coffee, I use the #7 setting for the grind and the 6-cup setting for the number of cups.

Yes. Here is a list of the CLEANING/MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS per Cuisinart. 1. Be sure plug has been removed from outlet. 2. Beans can be removed from the hopper by lifting off the lid and pouring excess beans out. Hold down the Manual button to cleanout any remaining beans. 3. The bean hopper, bean hopper lid, grind chamber, and grind chamber lid can be washed by hand with hot, soapy water or placed in the top shelf of a dishwasher. Dry thoroughly. a. Remove the bean hopper by rotating counter-clockwise bringing the selector past grind setting 18, align the arrows and lift up. Make sure the hopper is empty. b. Remove grind chamber by pulling toward you. 4. Remove the burr grinder, once the bean hopper has been removed, by grasping the metal handle and lifting up. Use the brush to remove grinds or wash by hand. Replace the burr grinder onto the unit and rotate until the piece is fully inserted. Push handle down and replace hopper. Note : The hopper will not attach to the unit if the grinder has not been fully inserted. 5. Wipe body of grinder with a damp cloth. 6. Any other servicing or maintenance should be performed by an authorized service representative. By the way, this grinder is AWESOME! The only complaint I have is the automatic setting seems heavy on the coffee. In other words, where I would use say 2 ounces of coffee for 10 cups - the grinder would use 3 ounces for 10 cups. I have found I need to adjust the cups for less in order to have the right amount of ground coffee. I will also add, I like ALL coffee (even flavored) and I drink my coffee black and I like it strong with a medium roast. So it isn't a situation where I simply like watered down coffee. At the same time, I don't like to waste my coffee either. Over grinding gets expensive, especially with premium beans like 100% Hawaii Kona or Jamaica Blue Mountain. Enjoy this unit, I certainly have...

That is basically what I do. Not very often, though. This has some pictures: http://bytownbeanery.wordpress.com/2013/07/18/cleaning-your-porlex-grinder/

Yes they can be removed. Here is a link to the PDF manual. You can look at the assembly instructions. http://content.charbroil.com/content/Char-Broil/Knowledge/11201677%20English.pdf

Did not find in manual the material used for the burrs, however, it states if one complies with the operating instructions, there is a life time warranty on the grinding mechanism. Hope this helps.

Sorry but I cannot help, my Burris is installed on my Ruger MarkIII and is zeroed, so I do not want to remove it. However if the part of the Burris which attaches to the Picatinny mount is removable it possibbly has to be removed from the bottom of the Burris which I cannot see now. There is still some latitude of adjustment in the attachment part.

The inner cup and blades are not removable for cleaning. I use a soft brush. It's great for cleaning grinds out of your grinder.

Yes. Otherwise you would not be able to take them out to clean them. I remove the grates to clean them each time I use the grill. Also, I take out the burner covers to clean them and the drip pan guard.

Yes, they are conical burrs. If you check my review, I did test it by making French press coffee. For coarse grinds it is not as consistent as a high-end electric grinder, but I found its performance to be pretty good and better than other Hario hand grinders (Skerton, Mini Mill).

I had to run the knife to remove the bottom also. A 'totally clean' removal I would say is not possible. I went to YouTube to check out demo's of making one and found this to be the norm. Hope that helps.

When I received the drill press, the chuck was attached. I don't see how it can be removed. You will have to check with the supplier.

They can be removed. I found that they were easily wiped clean with a wet cloth.

NO. You can rinse the blades off to clean them but you have to take the heads ( Blades ) off the razor to even do that. In my opinion really a bad designed and worthless razor.

I confess I have cleaned mine only once in the last 3 years and only then when it got gummed up and the motor stopped. It isn't particularly hard to disassemble, clean, reassemble and recalibrate the burrs. Also, the burrs are replaceable if they become worn. There are a number of YouTube videos showing how it's done. Take a look at a few of them and see if you would be comfortable doing the work yourself.

I have only used paper cup inserts- so no knives needed. If you greased the insides before putting in food they should come out pretty clean- but that would add extra cleaning needed. Even with the cups the oils bleed through so I clean each hole with a bottle brush. You'd have to at least rinse and wipe dry a cast iron one as well.

using a fine bristle brush, scrub the little slits. do monthly. i prefer the strainer to mesh ones.

The rocking isn't so severe that I would think just leaving them is fine. Even when not rocking it sits in one place very well. However in answer to your question, I can't see how you would be able to remove them.
