Next time I clean a grinder will be the first time!

I think they'd be fine together. The basic angles work together. That said: When you're dropping $13K on an espresso machine and > $4K on a grinder, some hundreds for custom steel side panels for the grinder to match the Speedster seems a drop in the bucket if you don't like the wood

I have a Ditting 804 with SSP HU burrs. Initially I cleaned it every 3 months, then 4 and lately 5. It hardly has much in it even after 5 months of daily use. Around each of the three fins, that push the grinds out, there is a small clump of fines and the center cavity around the bottom

The Arden name plate is meaningless, as they are a retailer. They sell many different machines, and the label on yours is just a rebadging. To me, it looks vaguely like an older Expobar, maybe a Monroc. On second thought, maybe an older Office?

I agree no JG for me. I realize I'm probably looking at at least two adapters to get it to 3/8 British. It's no easy task to find them however

I'm just glad I waited, because the last few years I have looked at several options but none I found to be customisable enough so I get it when it eventually hit the European market but that I doubt is before 2025
