We've been using that little red thing that says 42 to keep track of the grind setting on our hand grinder - just thought I'd share since it's been super useful.
It's a row counter for knitting. They're super cheap and at craft stores. I used them originally to count life in the Magic The Gathering card game.
Anyway, our hand grinder doesn't have any way to tell what setting it's on, and as we dial in new beans we write on the bag what setting worked well. For a while, we'd just reset to 40 after every grind, but that was annoying and I regularly would lose track of what setting it was on.
I bounce between decaf and caffinated beans a lot, so my grind setting changes regularly. This has been working super well for my wife and I though!
Is that a 1zpresso Q2 clone?? https://www.espressoclubegypt.com/uploads/product/source/VN8I-156756.jpeg
I have never seen that before. They stopped selling the original Q2 at 1zpresso because they have a folding handle now. Cool! Maybe they should have kept the numbered plate from 1zpresso to track grind size though ๐
It's actually a local product! Very happy with it. Unsure how much inspiration it took from the 1zpresso but they seem super similar.
