Doram can you post me a link please? The link in the blog takes me to o rings which are different to these.

      BigTTony Doram can you post me a link please? The link in the blog takes me to o rings which are different to these.

      I bought the O-rings from the link in Dave’s FAQ post: https://simplybearings.co.uk/shop/p512590/BS010-1.78mm-Section-6.07mm-Bore-VITON-Rubber-O-Rings/product_info.html.

      Maybe you are getting confused because the picture shows bigger rings? I think it’s just a generic photo they use of an O-ring, not the actual product. What’s important is the size: BS010 (the measurements of it are 1.78mm Section 6.07mm bore).


          Doram I think that’s exactly why I’m getting confused. I followed the same link and saw two large rings in the photo….. Doh! Thanks for clarifying.

            Otaibimn DavecUK Chinese Lagom Mini?

            It does look very similar doesn’t it, but it’s obviously not a lagom mini, although I wonder if they’ve had their grinder made in China, either rebranded/modified something that already existed. Or Lagom made something new and have been copied. I don’t even know who actually makes this but I’m interested to see how it performs and what it’s like as a grinder.

              My Niche got delivered today…. Love it. It’s going to take me a while to get the dial in right, but it’s much better than my aging Eureka Mignon.

                Are bellows standard on single dose grinders? Always thought they’re a hack rather than a solution to retention.

                    They seem to be for almost all of them…but if well designed, they shouldn’t be needed…

                      Cuprajake it’s becoming hard to dial it in, but my current setting is 22 which seems OK. The static from the grinder is annoying to say the least, but the manual says it gets better after a kilo or so

                        They’ve put up the price to £9 but I still like it. I’m probably going to buy a coffee one from etsy to make a fair comparison at some point.

                            Thanks. Have just received my Niche so will have a play this weekend and get a wdt tool if needed.

                            DavecUK which dosing funnel do you have? Is it an ‘inny’ or an ‘outy’?

                            I’m finding it’s quite a well debated topic that some feel the ‘inny’ versions create channelling issues, but the counter argument is that the inner rim doesn’t penetrate deeply enough to cause the effect. I’ve kind of concluded that spending £2500 on my set up is justification in itself to buy a dosing funnel that doesn’t sit inside the rim. I’ve seen some nice walnut versions on etsy for around £30 and if course there is the ‘decent’ funnel, but I’m struggling for other options to consider.
