    Re: Another newbie question

    My Rocky occasionally doesnt grind even when beans are in the top and its just cause the beans are stuck and wont go down. The Rocky is a bit heavy to be tilted like a vending machine :-) so in the drawer below my Silvia I have a wooden chopstick. You know the ones you get with Chinese takeaway? Turn off the grinder at the switch on the side and poke some beans down vigorously, remove the stick, turn back on and try grinding again.

      Re: Another newbie question

      I have had this issue when I first started using this setup.
      I used to load my hopper with enough beans for about 4 or 5 coffees at a time and the flow would occassionally get stuck.
      I went through the finger guard off/finger guard on routine. I decided to put it back on due to safety concerns (mostly in case someone else used the machine and wasnt aware the guard had been removed).

      These days, I only put enough beans in the hopper each time I grind to cover what I am making right then. With a greatly reduced volume, I no longer get any blockages.
