Features
On Demand Controls
- Simple touchscreen display: Very responsive and easy to understand. The display shuts off after 10 minutes of inactivity to save energy.
- Multiple dosing options: Single cup, double cup, & semi-automatic dosing. Easy to distinguish by their graphics and/or their color.
- Time-based grinding: The single & double cup dosing options can be programmed by 0.1-second increments from 0.1 to 64 seconds. The display shows the grinding time once you start grinding.
- Dosing count: The top number shows your current dosing count which can be reset. The bottom number shows the lifetime count which cannot be reset.
Grinding Burrs
- Flat burrs: Large size at 54 mm. The larger the size, the more of a grinding surface, resulting in faster production.
- High RPM: Fast spinning rate at 1400 rpm. The higher the speed, the faster the production, which can increase efficiency and reduce wait times.
- Easy access:
Grinding Adjustment
- Micro-stepped adjustments: Multiple steps between each number. Easier to go back and forth between different settings from espresso to other coffee methods. The tab on the left side keeps the adjustment dial locked on its current position.
- Adjustment dial: Clockwise for a coarser adjustment. Counterclockwise for a finer adjustment. A flat-head screw helps prevent you from adjusting too fine to where the burrs touch.
Portafilter Fork
- Ease of use: You can rest your portafilter while grinding for a complete hands-free operation. Accommodates most portafilters. The clearance from the fork to the coffee chute is approximately 3″.
- Adjustable, removable: You can remove the fork to grind into a container. There is a Flathead screw that holds the fork in place. The clearance underneath the funnel is approximately 4.5″.
- Dosing cup: The Quamar Nemo QE has a small dosing cup you can grind into. It sits comfortably on the fork and can hold ~ 30 grams.
Bean Hopper
- Low profile: The Quamar Nemo QE comes with a short hopper to make it easier to fit underneath kitchen cabinets. The total height of the grinder without the hopper is ~10″. The bean hopper adds another 4.25″ bringing the total height to approximately 14.25″. The total capacity is ~250 grams of whole coffee beans.
- Set screw: Secures the hopper to the grinder. Serves as a reminder for users from quickly removing the hopper if it is full of beans.
- Fingerguard: Prevents users from “accidentally” putting their fingers in the grinding burrs. Also helps reduce the “popcorning” effect of the beans when grinding.
- Stopper: A door near the bottom of the hopper can be pushed in to close the opening. This allows you to remove the hopper with beans inside so you can easily change the beans. There will be some beans already passed in the burrs which will have to be ground out first before removing the hopper.

Notes
Espresso Coffee Grinder Warnings:
- Roast Profiles: Espresso grinders sold by 1st-line Equipment, unless specifically indicated on the grinder page, are manufactured for coffee beans that have Italian or espresso roast profiles. Lighter roasted coffee beans may clog the grinder or not grind fine enough. Darker roasted coffee beans, such as French roasted or oily coffee beans, may clog the grinding chamber and/or the grinder chute where the ground coffee exits.
- Changing grind settings: It is very important to only change grind settings when the unit is powered on and the burrs are in motion. If you do not do this, the burrs will ‘gunk’ up and render the grinder to only produce very coarse grinds or no grinds at all. To remedy this, you will have to open up the grinder to get access to the grinding burrs. This issue will be considered operator error for lack of following directions, and not be classified as a defective grinder.
- Electrical cord: For most grinders, the cord is placed between the packaging (foam or cardboard) and the underside body of the grinder. During shipping, it is normal for a bend or insignificant blemish/slice to damage the cord.
- Finding coffee grinds in a new grinder: Most manufacturers test their grinders with coffee beans before they leave their facility. Unfortunately, they are not always able to get every trace of coffee out of the grinders after testing. As a result, you may find coffee beans or grinds inside your grinder, or there may be grinds in the packaging.
- Static issues: There are static issues with all grinders, even the highest-quality models. We firmly believe that the static comes from the coffee beans. If you are having static problems with your coffee grinder, try using a different blend of beans.
- Electrical: To avoid electrical damage (which is not considered a manufacturer's defect), please acquire and install a single-outlet surge suppressor rated at 1080 joules or higher. A surge without protection can damage a grinder at the power switch, the capacitor, the motor, or the wiring.
- Burr cleaning: For routine maintenance of the grinding burrs, we recommend using grinder cleaning agents. We do not recommend any removal of the burrs or the burr carrier for cleaning (unless necessary) as re-assembly can cause damage. If the grinder chamber is dis-assembled, the warranty is voided for any damages that result. It is important to always remove all coffee grinds from the threads of the burr carrier and the grinding chamber.
- Replacing burrs: NEVER use a flat head screwdriver and hammer to wedge UNDER the burrs for removal. This could badly damage your grinder.

Hello. The Quamar Nemo bean hopper is Quamar RMM800017 250G Bean Hopper Assembly, found here - https://www.1st-line.com/buy/quamar-rmm800017-250g-bean-hopper-assembly/
I have two questions about my Nemo that I purchased about 2 months ago. 1. I'm finding grinding into the portafilter is a little messy, and not all of the grinds are going into the portafilter. Is there something I should be doing differently? 2. I read somewhere that I should not put the grind setting above 5. I'm finding the bar pressure on my espresso machine (Bellona DB) is not going very high. I've tried different beans but no change. The espresso tastes good, but from some research, I thought I read that for the espresso shot to have good crema, the bar pressure needs to reach between 7-10. What should I be doing differently? Thank you!

This is usually when too coarse or the coffee beans create too much static. some beans create more static than others.
2. I read somewhere that I should not put the grind setting above 5. I'm finding the bar pressure on my espresso machine (Bellona DB) is not going very high. I've tried different beans but no change.

This equates to aboce. Too coarse of a grind. Also, smaller number means smaller particle size. Always change setting while the grinder is powered on AND motor running!
