Nice tip TomC, simple and inexpensive.

The mist bottle makes the RDT concept much easier and distributes the moisture over a wider area(more bean coverage)!

In another thread Monday, I posted about using a vermouth atomizer like this one:

Works great, looks great, and creates a super-fine mist...plus it is very small so doesn't take up much space near the machine.

I have some nice Bacote wood parts for one of these. Need to take a photo and send the parts off to the new owner. :mrgreen:

People grinding into paper cups, using atomizers and still thinking everything is perfect. I've seen everything now :lol:

I've watched high end cafes using Roburs grinding into paper cups then weighing each individual dose, since the timer on Robur E is up to .2g off easily. So apparently you haven't seen it all.

Please do! I am in the Philadelphia area and would be interested in seeing if/how how the wood complements the HG one.

dsc, you should change your id to "ghe" --> glass half empty :wink:

With my other (hopper) grinder, I had static issues, but just had no way to resolve it. At least now I can resolve the issue pre-grind and it takes 2 seconds.

The IMPROVEMENT in the espresso has been simply night/day.

I don't think using an atomizer is related to the grinder, it's about the humidity. I still had terrible static w/ my other grinder.
