Krups is among one of the foremost names in coffeemakers, espresso machines, blenders and toaster ovens. Krups also makes coffee bean grinders, such as the Krups 203a. This portable, plug-in grinder has a removable lid and bean grinder chamber. The blade on the Krups bean grinder is fastened to the bottom of the grinder chamber. You may need to replace the blade on your Krups 203. The Krups 203 comes with a limited 1-year warranty, but the company recommends you send your grinder to the company to make repairs. Order replacement parts for your grinder by calling the Krups customer service department at 1-800-526-5377.

    • 1 Unplug your Krups grinder from the wall.
    • 2 Remove the grinder's lid, and use a cloth to wipe out the inside of the grinder chamber.
    • 3 Put your safety gloves on and then grasp the blade of the grinder with your channel locks.
    • 4 Use the pliers to turn the plastic fastening nut to the left as you continue to hold the blade with the channel locks. Once the plastic nut comes loose, twist it off by hand and remove it, along with the plastic washer beneath it and the old blade.
    • 5 Set the new blade in place, and replace the washer and nut. You will have to hold the new blade in place with the channel locks as you tighten the securing nut.
Things You'll Need
  • Cloth
  • Safety gloves
  • Channel locks
  • Pliers

In case of a problem or clarification or my solution was insufficient, don't hesitate to post me a reply.

If you are satisfied, rate my solution with the "thumbs" or (even better) add a testimonial.

    I just found a MUCH easier way to remove the blade on a Krups F203. On the underside of the grinder, simply remove the sticker with the model and serial#s. You will find an open slot shaped hole for a regular screwdriver. Insert screwdriver and turn the blade counter clockwise against the force of the screwdriver. The blade comes right off. I sharpened the correct edges with a file, and reinstalled the blade. 10 minutes. Put the sticker back in place.

Thanks for the directions but the plastic nut is fused to the threads and is not budging. I used a block of wood to stop the blade from turning but the pliers still stripped on the nut. I'll keep using this one ( a 203A) with its noisy 1/2 blade until it completely dies.
