  • Niche adjustment ring moving on every use

I hope problem was because bolt being loose and now sorted.

8 is totally normal, your grinder now properly calibrated I believe. My typical range is 7-12 decaf to caf.

I recommend marking silver funnel also with a dot where they align with calibration dot on black ring. So even if you move black ring by mistake you can come back to where it was.

Yep. Mine is usually at 9 for my espresso and 50 for drip.

Fingers crossed it’s sorted. Thanks for all the help and suggestions.

Mine started doing the same and a good clean sorted it for me. Hopefully yours will be the same.

My Niche did the same. It is annoying as you have to keep watching to make sure it hasn’t drifted off.

I just followed DaveC vid to clean it thoroughly and put it back together without any sanding or greasing and it cured it.

My espresso range for medium to medium-dark roast is 8 - 11

Lot’s of Niche related threads, so let’s post my query here:

Have had my NZ for approx 6 months, and after the initial period of seasoning, the amount of ground coffee coming out was +/- 0.1-0.2 grams of the beans weight. As of last week I get quite an inconsistent output, often in the region of 0.5-0.6 grams.

I usually make 2 espressos+ 2 pourovers per day, so I switch between finer and coarser settings. Last cleaning performed 2 months ago.

Any thoughts? Should I just give it a deep clean?

Thanks

    Is it a fresh bean?

    I have some beans that are a $hitshow and stick in the niche cup 😱

      ChristosC Might be worth giving it a clean, remember you don’t need to recalibrate, so it won’t affect your grind settings

      Even get a micro fibre cloth up the exit tube.

      Winter can also do funny things. I’m noticing a bit more static.

        90% it’ll be the bean.

        What are they

        I got some from A1 roasters..

          Cuprajake Could be. Alternating between a Guatemalan from Campbell and Syme, and an East Timorian from Redemption Roasters (espresso and filter settings respectively, both came as part of Dog and Hat subscription).
