ETA Gratus Maxipasta - Manual (Page 54)

Use
Pour poppy seeds into the filling hole of the mill cover ( maximum amount is 150 g).
The amount of processed poppy seeds is regulated by the grooves in the grinding stones.
Place a suitable container under the mill to collect the ground poppy seeds. Start up the drive
unit. Set it to its “middle” speed (i.e. speed 3 or 4). We recommend that you first check a small
sample of poppy seeds on graininess upon their processing (i.e. grinding). If the graininess
of ground poppy seeds is not optimal, switch off the drive unit and then adjust the setting
by regulating disc H5 (i.e. by turning anti-clockwise = coarser grinding, by turning clockwise =
finer grinding). If the graininess of the processed sample is now ideal, complete the grinding
process on the remaining amount of seeds. In case that you need to process a higher amount
of poppy seeds, make sure not to exceed the maximum operating time of the drive unit.
Recommendation
– Ensure good quality of poppy seeds. We recommend that you check poppy seeds for
presence of any foreign objects before milling (e.g. fragments of stones) which could
damage the product (e.g. abrade the grinding discs). Possible complaints within the
warranty period as a result of these impurities will not be taken into account.
– Use only dry poppy seeds when milling! Poppy seeds must be ground, not pressed,
so that they stay loose, do not pulp and do not lose their distinctive flavour.
– Poppy seeds contain oil. To ensure good grinding results, do not set a very fine degree
of grinding.
– Preparation (processing) time ranges in units of minutes, depends on the quantity,
type and quality of used poppy seeds and on the set fineness of grinding (ca. 150 g / 2
minutes).
– When grinding a “higher” amount of poppy seeds, the parts of the extra attachment
can get hot (e.g. the grinding discs, pusher plate, carrier). Wait a moment before
disassembly and cleaning. Be careful not to get burnt.

IV. TABLE FOR THE USAGE OF THE APPLIANCE AND ACCESSORIES
Please consider the following cooking tips as examples and as inspiration. Their purpose is
not to be a complete guide, but to demonstrate the possibilities of various food preparation
methods. Chose the amount of ingredients to be processed so that the maximum content
of the containers marked by a line is not exceeded. A larger amount of processed
ingredients must be divided into several batches and the contents of the container should
be regularly inspected. We recommend that you interrupt your work from time to time and
remove any food which has become stuck or clogged the attachment or is on the walls of
the containers, blender and lid.
