Baratza Settes that die early?
They were pretty good about it. They suggested a few things. That did not work so they said they would send a replacement. Got it 3 bus. days later. Note that I did not know how long it would take so I found one locally. I was trying to season the burr so I was

Baratza Settes that die early?
I have had this grinder since November. It did jam and stop running a few times in the beginning when we were running lots of beans through it to season the grinder. but only when we had so many beans it would run 20+ seconds. Once seasoned we do about 20g at a time and it has

Grinder Epiphany with the Baratza Sette 270
i have not tried that but for espresso i grind for 10 sec for 20 grams but most of the grinding is done around 6 seconds. it is fast. so for espresso 20 seconds should get you 60 plus grams. a coarser grind would be faster than that so 70-80 g i would be guessing?

Baratza Sette - End User Reports
I did. Called and talked to Baratza support. he suggested to grind no more than 20 seconds and then rest for 50 sec before grinding again. Also you really have to run at least 2 lbs or more beans though it before you will get any consistency. After that is done you will find that you

Season your Baratza Sette!
I thought this was important enough to have its own thread. The Sette manual talk about using a handful of beans at a setting of 20 to remove rust and season the burr. I was not familiar with seasoning but great... 1 handful done! Then for many many shots later, about 2lbs of 20gram grinds, I

Grinder Epiphany with the Baratza Sette 270
Talked with Baratza support. It took them 24hrs to get back to me but they are overloaded with questions right now. Here is what he said. 1. I told him that on my beans for my 1:2 shot I started grind settings in the 9's and now 2lbs of grinding later its 5E. Is that normal?

Grinder Epiphany with the Baratza Sette 270
I think I figured out what the probem was. I think my Burr's were seasoning ( I think that means the sharp edges were wearing off). Because with the first use of this grinder on my coffee I was getting settings of 7 and 9 with all the letter combinations to get a 1:2 shot in 25 sec

Grinder Epiphany with the Baratza Sette 270
To answer one of the questions, as long as the shot was between 36 and 50 grams it tasted ok to great in a Latte. I have not developed a taste for straight espresso. Too me they all taste way to strong, bitter and sometimes sour. But mostly too strong. But blend it with

Baratza Sette is not a 30 step grinder
I saw the posted video. My burr and the fine adjustment are nice and solid.... no wobble. BUT.... Someone posted that the burrs need to be seasoned... even Baratza mentions that after the first few pounds of coffee that a shim may be required. So I filled the bowl. Set the grinder at
