That leaves me to guess something close to my heart.... TR Rossa... What else could arrive to his door so quick? I'm pretty sure Ross (Spencer) is a Queenslander.....

we have a winner! Lacy wins it and will be the first to taste it. The big bad HG-one hand grinder...... 83mm TIN Mazzer burrs ordered Monday and arrived from USA on Friday expensive postage but fast. I always hated the fact there could be a better grinder out there. C-

Sensational mate! Look forward to your thoughts and your next upgrade :stir :rofl:

Ol_Grumpy

Way to go C-man..... Did you get the accessory so you can grind straight into the portafilter? ???

Lacehim

Ol_Grumpy

they said to use the tumble it comes with, I only saw a holder for the portafilter that I don't need because I always use a nakid They recommended the funnel wipers so I got them.

door bell is fixed and more beans ordered will let you know.

Awesome C-man Congrats and welcome to the large conical club. Ive been pondering the switch to the HG1 from the Kony but not decided yet

C-man

Thanks Ronin paying for it was painful lets hope it was worth it.

Lacehim

I'm still waiting for my message to say it's arrived C-Man? Or are you keeping your new toy all to yourself! 😉

C-man

It came Monday almost a week ago, Still trying to get a decent shot out of it. It just sprays everywhere no matter what I do and I get water in the shots I guess the burrs need to season in. I keep grinding more and more older beans to season it, seems to take forever. I have read that the TIN coated burrs take time.

Very interesting, i had no such problems with mine with the original burrs. Are you grinding direct into the PF or do you have the sexy tumbler gadget?

Lacehim

Are you getting your dose right? What does the grind feel like? Same as you usual grind? Happy to visit if you want. Let me know when you have time.

C-man

I am grinding onto the thing it came with, then lifting the plug thing into the portafilter as per instructions. Dose and grind does not seem to matter, I am getting tiny sprayers through the naked no matter how much I stir the grinds. the grind looks nice and fluffy but not as good as the Pharos OG brought over. It really makes a mess. I ground the same beans with the Rosco just to test and it was much better. Come by anytime Micheal.

Brett_H

Try different beans mate!
