Fiorenzato F4E Nano, fight with the retention
Fiorenzato F4E rebuild (take it to another level ...)
I did read everything Peter, like I said: like a book, haha. Really interesting, but all the lathe work is out of my expertise. That's why I'm curious if Fiorenzato sells the burr carriers for the filter edition already.

Peter,

Wahou ! Just amazing the way you over killed the customization on this grinder. Many things to learn and experiment based on your upgrades... I just bought that one few days ago and im happy with it for now. But definitly the scale is hard to use. You dont mind if you can send me one as well ? It will be just amazing ;)
Just a question, when you do the ZP procedure to find thé burr real 0, does it damage them as you are rotating t'il they touch and made a friction sound ? I guess you have to go 0.5 by 0.5...

Thanks. :)
No, but the increments should be very small, like 1 - 2 minutes on the watch dial per increment. 0.5 increments on original scale are too big. The grinder must be empty and clean.
The other way is to switch-off the grinder (with the main switch!) and spin the lower burr by hand only after each increment.

Hey Peter !

I bought this coffee grinder last week and I've found this thread with your improvements, the scale is exactly what I need, it's perfect :D
Is it always possible to have one ?

If yes, can you contact me in PM for the procedure ? Thanks a lot in advance :mrgreen:

All,

This has been an extremely helpful thread. Just received my F4E (and a QM 2B Evo) and was able to calibrate the grinder successfully with the advice here.

Peter, if you still are in the business, I'd be interested in some of your mods.
