My much love Porlex mini hand grinder that serves me well after a year of 4 times daily use at last seems to be losing its edge a bit. I love this wee grinder, I use it at home and it gets popped in my work bag daily, after purchasing another for my partner I realise that mine is a bit worse for ware now and takes quite a bit more grunt to get through the beans compared to the new one. It gets cleaned out once or twice a week. Can the ceramic burrs just be replaced or is there something more going on in there that means its just had it now?

Thank you and kind regards
