You can use whole bean or pre-ground coffee to brew drinks on your TK-02 and TK-01. The pre-ground option uses single servings only, so only insert enough pre-ground coffee for a single drink. Please do not fill the pre-ground chute with ground beans. 

On TK-02: To brew pre-ground coffee, first tap the Pre-ground text in the upper right corner of your TK-02 screen. Next, add one full scoop of pre-ground coffee. Select your drink of choice. Note that any drinks containing more than one shot will be greyed out on your TK-02 screen. 

On TK-01: To brew pre-ground coffee, first tap the PREGROUND icon on the home screen of your TK-01. Next, add one full scoop of pre-ground coffee, using the scoop in your accessories box. Finally, select your drink of choice. 

On Demi: Demi works with whole bean coffee, and does not support the use of pre-ground coffee. 

We have a helpful video below that will walk you through brewing pre-ground coffee on the TK-01, and another video showing how make pre-ground coffee on the TK-02.
