I find a "dustbuster" style vacuum is just about perfect for this kind of thing. Lot's more convenient than a hose and canister type unit.

Yes but with the hose you can also get it into your doser and vac out all the stuff left there and anything in the chute.

Just in case anyone wants one of these, you might be interested that OE has the mini dosing funnel again:

My SAMA tamper fits in the grind chamber purrrrrfectly and keeps my single dosing from popcorning anywhere at all, so I'm gonna pass, but...she's quite purdy....

They DO.

I'm just that much closer to Rohnert Park (and the new casino :-(((((((  ) that I was going into the new Himalayan Beanz shop (where Starbucks used to be....east side of Commerce).

And now I'm back online with AT&T....until the end of this week when I get my new Sonic service and bid an unfond adieu to AT&T....:-))))

Went to college at Sonoma State about 5ish years now, and still make my way up their occasionally.

Anyway, interesting that Starbucks pulled out of that spot there by the Safeway. I guess their in store location was enough, and jeez Rohnert Park... idk.

Starbucks put in a drive-through a bit farther north on Commerce....just above RPXway.

And you don't even want to know about the Casino at the Golf Course Drive exit.....

I've found a grind setting I quite like but I want to do some experimenting.
 
I'm trying to think of the best way on this gorgeous machine to mark a current setting so that I can easily dial a bit coarser and/or a bit tighter without losing track of where I was....

Suggestions?

A hack saw would work


or you could just put a small piece of tape and put a mark on the tape.

Ah, that trusty blue tape that someone here taught me to use to mark my coffee jars.....good idea.

Don't tell Todd you said that about the hacksaw;  he'll worry about me all day....:-))))
