Since the Zassenhaus grinders don't have dosers: :D

On the left, Yoplait yogurt in a Starbucks Barista double basket (54mm),
On the right, Welch's grape juice in a Sama Export double basket (45mm):

The wide one makes it easier to needle the grinds (WDT) without losing any. Man, this coffee hobby sure keeps the brain alert looking for quick tricks!

Prof,
Have you seen the photos from Peacecup filling a PF from a hand grinder? He uses a playing card- Queen of Hearts I think :wink: with one corner cut off !!. He then covers the top of the grounds drawer and "pours" the grounds into the PF of his Export!!

Yeah, that's a GREAT video! Appropriate music, too. He used his KYM grinder, but I'll forgive him for that! :roll:

Now I get NO spillage of beans. That's good.
