After use, how much grind is left behind between the hopper and the collector?

The hopper itself doesnt really have anywhere to hold grinds, it's just a matter of tapping and it cleans itself out. The chamber and chute, i get about 2-2.5 grams out of. I just make a habit of running 3g out into the hopper to clear the previous days' staled grindage

I gave mine away because it was an awful product, and I don't remember what the capacity is. My recommendation is that, no matter which product you purchase, you grind only the amount you wish to use at the time.

Not sure of the problem. Make sure that are not any beans in the grinder area preventing the hopper from setting in place correctly. You have placed hopper in place felt it set down into the groove and then turn the knob inside the hooper? Hope this helps...

You can try opening the little door under the bean Hopper and cleaning the entire shut from the grinder. You can pull the lever next to the door to manually open the door to the basket and push the clogged grinds in. You need to do this at least once a week.

Hopper capacity is ALOT it adjusts from the back to a VERY wide girth for bills id say approx 6 inches or so, works well, I like the side read-out . only wish it added the denominations up as it counted. Good machine, great price.

I only put as many beans in the hopper as I'm ready to grind since it is clear and not super air tight. Beans should be left in a dark air tight bag or cannister until ready for use.

I wouldn't bother sending it back. it's normal to have that. The thing runs like a tank, so I doubt there's any issues. It's a great grinder.

That is the best option I've found. Depending on what you are grinding it may be possible to scoop the results out with a flexible spoon or spatula. But I worry about how much I'll leave behind, so I will typically just pick it up and scrape out the contents.

Negative. I have only jammed it up once and I just removed the head and cleared it. Very satisfied with this grinder after 3 years of hard use.

Try this. NO water. Filter Set grind control to 2. Grind away. View results.Next set grind control on 12 (finest) Grind away. Observe.Grind Control might be bad.Are you using "strength control"?When you clean the chute, do you get a packed fine powder type substance?I've had my first machine for 9 years and the new one for one year.I recently had a problem. The chute & everything all the way down was clogged with wet coffee. I somehow must have gotten water in the hopper. REAL mess to clean up.For the first 7 years of ownership I never cleaned the chute. The grinder was powerful enough to make a hole in the chute.Let me know if this was helpful.Sincerely,Roger Try this. NO water. Filter Set grind control to 2. Grind away.

Depends on use and what you are juicing and that it is adjusted according to directions so the blade does not contact the hopper tunnel. Original blade lasted for 20+ years of on and off use.

If the effect output is about 150 W, the power consumption will be higher. How high depends on the efficiency of the grinder. If the efficiency is lower than 75%, the power consumption will exceed 200 W.

A little yea. Easy fix is to get an offset clamp for your hopper or if you have the cyclone feed system just get the tactical hopper which will also fix the issue

To second another answer... There should be a little note from the factory that says they test with actual coffee before the unit leaves the factory, so finding left over grinds is normal on new units.

Hello Umbeyonce, We've recently added a lid to our hopper as it does make grinding more convenient. I use my grinder every day and since adding a lid I've been able to grind more quickly without worrying about the angle I'm holding the grinder at. The lid lets you be much more casual and a bit reckless during the grinding process. Best regards! Alex Team Kuissential

I don't know. I bought it a long time ago and it was such GARBAGE that I just tossed it into the trash. It was not worth another ten dollars to ship it back the the con artists who sold it to me. It looks great in the box and in the pictures but when you try to grind anything, no matter how small or how large, the stuff to be ground just falls out of the front of it and NOTHING gets ground at all. It was a bad joke.
