I'd be done too - for a while!

Thanks all! Yeah, LOL, the only upgrades I'm looking at anytime soon are some wood sides, handles and caps.

I also debated quite a bit on whether to get the AV or the MP. I'm very happy I went back to a manual machine from a volumetric. I'm really enjoying playing around with the pressure profiling. Though I probably need to pickup a better scale.

The E65s is fantastic as well for those looking at it. Super fast, very quiet and grind quality is outstanding. It is very easy to dial in.

My Robot got a new friend, the Specialita.

A nice complement to the M47, very pleased with the results, works really well with the Robot. The only drawback: I drink even more coffee than before

How do you like your hero grinder? How is it in terms of grounds retention?

I love it. No retention. Excellent grind performance and distribution with wdt. I also love the worm gears as it's easy to dial the specific settings required.

Nice setup!
What's the scoop on the E65S 'Hopper', single dose?

Yes, that's "single dosing" small hopper. When I bought the grinder, there was not available original MK small hopper, so managed to made this one. I use it with the weight.

... funny thing, SD hopper design and dimensions are based on the diameter of on eBay available black plastic lens cover, the most important part ...
