I cant retest it anymore I dont have those stripes

Need help guys. I recently changed to an acaia dosing cup, while it works well and fits snug under the ode, but when grinding I see hint of blue spark every 1-2 secs between the outer rim of the cup and the plastic grinding chute area. Will this be hazardess?

Yeah, 16 days is great. I've had 20 day old Saka arrive on my doorstep. To be fair you were claiming 7-10 days, not 16. It's not impossible to get 7 day old coffee from Italy via Cantina but kind of unlikely. The bag I'm drinking right now arrived 42 days post roast. By the way, those

Good to know - I'm just west and going to start the search for a Lambro or Prestina in earnest soon. I've seen a few two group Arduino's but they're too big for my small house
