I tried just about all their Guatemalan coffees last year and they were all great. Some of the highest quality Guatemalan greens I've had. All were better than a Royal Gem Guatemalan I ordered around the same time. I don't think I've ever had a dud from them that can recall

Thanks for the help. Plug came loose that is connected under machine. Rookie mistake. Thanks again

More time in Maillard isn't typically the answer. First off some coffees aren't good candidates for light roast. They may need more development to get rid of the underdeveloped notes. Second, a good light roast procedure typically involves trying to group the cracks very closely together so that the majority of the beans crack at roughly the same tight window

I have a stand that just happens to get the indicator right to the screws. For the bottom carrier, the I sat the holder for the indicator on flat on the lip of the top of the grinder and spun the burr holder

that's on the actual front panel of the machine, that isn't user replaceable... it looks tiny though, might even be a powder coat defect, or the opening or closing of the panel, which must be pushed while holding the toggle down, never snapped shut. Is there a corresponding witness mark on the opening panel inside? I do really

Hey, it's been a few month, did you end up returning it or seasoning some more? Did the issue go away/get solved? I'm on the lookout for a new flat burr and both of these grinders are within my price range but I'm a bit put off by posts like this, wanted to see if the issue persists. Thanks!

Looking at the left side, I see some small damage to the finish where a side impact from the panel would hit it. I couldn't have caused that, so I don't know what to think. I will, as you suggested, send all of these pictures to ACS (through Maria?) and see what they say. {image} Matt

Thanks all. WLL has Ceado e6p on sale. Does anyone have specific knowledge of this grinder versus the others mentioned? 64mm platform is tempting (also super jolly). Thanks

Taking the last photo first, that looks like a hexagonal (so it won't rotate) rivnut that was put into the steel with too much force on a misadjusted air tool. I have used the air tool to fit them before and you have to be careful with a different adjustment for thickness of metal and size of rivnut. The Evo
