Compensating for the Coriolis Effect, can't be too careful when dealing with coffee

A few years back, I ordered an EK43S Turkish grinder directly from Mahlkonig USA. I have often wondered if they might select better aligned carriers for Turkish grinders as mine will totally choke my Bosco Sorrento, to the point that it takes over a half hour to let the piston come to rest. I was ju...

I thought for a moment it was going to be Coffee Brittle!

Type K thermocouples are very available. If you use a type K it is highly likely you will not need to do any compensation although it is not a bad idea to check. Is there a branch of McMaster -Carr, Grainger or similar business in Canada? Highly likely they would have a type K thermocouple. Thermowo...

Being somewhat of a traditionalist, I am quite pleased with my EK43S. May not be the absolute best but pretty darned good

exp.... The grooming bar only protrudes from the flat base 1-2mm. It is enough to even the top of the coffee and tends to fill any small surface voids left after WDT. The bar floats and there is no impression left after the tamp is complete as the bar retracts and is flush with the surface during th...

I have the "ribbed" version with concentric circles around the face and found it to be some what of a gimmick that yielded no benefits that I could discern. I also have the flat face with the grooming bar which I find to add a considerable level of repeatability to my extractions. Just set it on the...
