Battery life of scale

Hey - I have a black mirror basic 3 and I really like the size and features of the scale. I bought it specifically for the battery life, but it’s been about two weeks and I’m down to one bar. Anyone else having issues? I’ve been really struggling to find a good scale that can last for at least a month and I’m about to go nuclear and buy a Lunar if I can’t figure this out

[Problem] timemore c3s modify

Hi everyone, I bought the 30-click bezel to modify my C3S. I've tried inserting it in every way, but I can't get it to 0. The photo shows the closest alignment I've managed to get to 0. The new 30-click bezel has the rear pin aligned with the 2nd. Can someone help me align it, please?

I also watched a few videos on YouTube, and the components are inserted correctly.

Stumped again

So I thought the whole point with roasteries having these garage sales "sales" were to put these bags of coffee that they did not sell and since they are well rested to sell them at the same price ?? I thought garage sale, that would mean that the coffee was not only pre rested, but also on a small amount of money off the bag? f I thought these were coffees that they're really trying to clear out. Then why aren't they giving us a small amount off on these bags thus called a garage sale.. It's like the bait and switch game ? Or which pea is under the three nuts. 🫪

,please, I can do without any sarcasm. Thank you

C5 ESP

Guys, normally, what the parameters that you use for an espresso on this grinder? I'm using something between 0.6.3 and 0.7.0, and the expresso is not so good!

Gen 2 Timemore Bricks 01s?

Are there any rumours of a new generation of the Timemore Bricks 01s? I'm considering the Fellow Opus Gen 2 but the Timemore Bricks 01s is a close contender.

Help putting the chestnut C3 pro back together?

I’m feeling like a complete idiot. I’ve watched a few YouTube videos. Asked ChatGPT. Looked at the manual. I’m still confused.

I have two washers to my chestnut C3 pro (which by the way is completely metal and does not have any plastic so that also confuses me given the complaints about C3pro) I am going to put pictures of the two washers and I would really appreciate it if someone could tell me which end goes where or where I could look for “explain it to me like I’m 5” instructions

Thanks, humbly

Issues with Timemore scale

Seems like my Timemore scale is messed up!

The display is flickering, resets abruptly (between brewing!), and doesn't turn on immediately. It was working very well, but started having issues for about a week now.

Has anyone faced this issue before?

And any advice on how this can be fixed? It's been more than a year, so it is past warranty.

Tiny Rubber Ball found in Sculptor Grinder...what is it?

I cleaned the burrs in my Sculptor 078 for the first time today and it seems like everything went alright, but during the process I found this tiny Rubber Ball sitting above the grounds knocker mechanism. Is that there for a reason? Like a declumper? Or is it from something else in the grinder? Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Grinder smell removal

Hi, so I have the chestnut c3s pro grinder. I stopped drinking coffee for a few months and like a dumass forgot to clean it first. Now it has a weird residual smell which transfers to the beans I grind. Since washing is not an option, how can I remove the trapped smell? Thanks!

Wacaco Exagrind Pro-E vs Timemore Chestnut S3 ESP

Anyone have any experience with both grinders for pourover and beginner espresso use?

For context, I'm planning to upgrade from my timemore c3. Currently, I mainly brew coffee through pourovers and Aeropress but I plan to eventually start exploring manual espresso by the end of the year.

With a budget of around Php 5-7k, I initially found the Timemore S3 ESP as fitting my criteria of being able to handle pourovers and manual espresso. I've seen recommendations for 1zpresso and Kingrinder as well but they're a bit too over budget for the suggested models.

However, I recently saw a new release from Wacaco: the Exagrind Pro-E (not to be confused with the older Exagrind). Though it's mainly marketed for portable espresso, I just wanted to check if anyone has experience with this grinder for filter coffee? It's relatively close in price range to the S3 ESP so I was hoping to find a comparison of both, especially since the Exagrind Pro-E is a newer release and a bit cheaper.
