Makes sense, and I can see the anti-popcorning shield as an option to purchase on the Versalab website. Personally, I'd like it if Versalab etched a numeric scale on the side of the funnel. At least for me, as one that experiences three different coffees daily, the need to easily adjust my grind setting is indispensable.

Mine has the stickers applied, no issues and looks good.
Family, coffee and fun.

I like a lot about the M4. Could you flash a pic of the stickers when you have time.

Stickers and anti-popcorn cover are kind of meh - more like afterthoughts and not in keeping with the rest of the aesthetic of the machine. But they are perfectly functional. I would much prefer engraved markings and some sort of machined metal anti-popcorn device.
Eventually you will end up with a lever.

Thanks Tom and Ken. Certainly does the job.
Ken, I see you opted for a custom walnut popcorn shield...that's a nice touch.

How is the user experience for changing grind fineness? Thanks!

Very easy. Loosen red knob, rotate funnel, tighten red knob. Don't forget the last step!

both correct. The anti popcorn plastic is actually better in person than in pics. I do have a design suggestion for them to make a touch more attractive. Maybe they will consider it.Corgo wrote:Unless they have updated, there are stickers for the top part and the metal arm holding the burr section that serve as the grind size indicator.
