Well it's good to see an actual demonstration of a working grinder. Did anyone else notice how loose the chute was when he tapped it? That doesn't inspire a ton of confidence about build quality.

That could - could - be deliberate. Some grinders have loose chutes to tap out grinds, for example, EK43 and (thus) Nautilus. Others have knockers on fixed chutes that do the same thing, for example, P100 and Ode.

They say up to 2 g coffee retained in grinder (not in grind path which is about 0.1 g which is good). I wonder if that's an issue.

There are a couple lingering questions but none that are a deal breaker for me. This looks like a good grinder to compliment my conical grinder and is in a reasonable price range versus others I was considering like the Lagom P64. I do pour-over most of the time so the SSP MP burrs look good. I preordered one.
