Question
tompoland 11
Bought one of these monsters and I may have made a mistake! My goodness it is massive and grinds 22g in around 2 seconds!
My problem is that when I rotate the grind knob, the grind size does not change. I contacted the reseller who said that every time I adjust the knob, I need to grind 100 - 200g of beans before the grind size changes. He said that is normal with a commercial grinder (I did not realize it was a commercial grinder when I bought it) and that was even more so with the Helios 80 because it is lightning fast.
That means I could easily grind say 300g to 600g of beans if I am trying to dial in a new batch of coffee, say taking three attempts with my espresso machine to determine the optimal grind size.
Does anyone have any experience with a Helios 80 that can offer advice please?
Best, Tom.
