7 pre dosed shots in a mazzer mini

Postby RegulatorJohnson on Thu Jul 19, 2007 12:58 pm

i made this to illustrate how i put pre-dosed shots of beans into the mazzer.

i measure the amount of beans with a double basket. no scale just a normal double basket. I can constantly let beans into the grind chamber and then re-dose the next shot to wait until needed. then you just grind until the end, lift up the basket and the beans dump into meet their fate.



if i had enough double baskets I could do this and get 7 shots total. but its not really worth it, maybe it is? i photoshopped up a composite of what you could do if you had that many baskets.

thanks for the time.

I do the same thing!
Wow, we're both weird....only difference is that I'm anal enough to weigh the doses and I do have enough double baskets.

"weird" :shock:

Interest, dedication, obsession, and total insanity all lie at different points along the same path.... :D

(Damn...and I went and had to go doserless!)

And y'all made fun of my bean doser photochop! It would have done the same thing, but given you the choice of three different beans, (and the possibility of charging per shot!)
