Zp6 rusty bearing?

Don’t mind the fuss around.

Had it since April.
That’s the lowest of three.
It doesn’t come off, no matter how hard I scrub.
Is it possible that it has already collected rust?

I always spray my beans in a ceramic container, shake them well to get rid off the excessive moisture and then put them into the grinder.

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Fines in ZP6

My dad brews 20g of coffee in a French press, and today he decided to filter out the fines using filter paper. It’s the first time I’ve noticed that the my ZP6 generates quite a lot of fines. Is this normal?

Question regarding my K Ultra: If I put the Grindsize close to zero (0,3) the burrs seem to be off center just a tiny bit. They scratch when turning . Is that just normal? I mean you would never grind that fine.

I just want to know whether I should return my unit.
Thank you guys for the help :)

Handle Mechanism is garbage

Bought a JX-Pro that had been working ok. The handle recently started falling off and won't secure properly. A quick Google search shows this is a common and known issue due to the cheap snap mechanism the company uses.

The company seems to be in the business now of selling replacement handles at exorbitant prices rather than standing behind their product. There are so many excellent grinders in this price range I would stay clear of 1zpresso.

X-Ultra quick clean

What is the best way to clean the leftover fines out without completely disassembling the grinder?

Drill vs vice to help with arm soreness?

Hi, I tried grinding for espresso on my j-ultra with a drill because I am finding my stabilising arm (not the handle turning arm) can get sore when hand grinding. The only thing is I felt like I still needed to stabilise the resistance from the drill, so there was no relief there.

I think what I'm needing is a vice of some sort that can hold the grinder for me while I turn rather than a tool that does the turning for me.

Has anyone had a similar issue or is my technique wrong?
