    I think you are right, it is light cream not pure white. So no worries?
    And no, it's not metal, and if I had done rice that is how it would look I suppose. Getting to the end of that packet and with all the visitors we had this week one kilo goes so fast!
    The grinder is a rossi commercial grinder. I used to know the model name and I probably described it in older post when this was a novelty ... ha ha.
    Thank you for your replies

    Since the beans have been sitting in a holiday house for some time, is it possibly something like moths in the beans?

    Hmmm.. I know with my grinder if I remove the top burr assembly for cleaning then screw it back in, I get some metal shavings coming through the chute (must just be too tight...). I don't suppose it might be something like that?

    Doesn't look like ground chalk though...
    Very mysterious.

    You haven't ground any dry rice or similar in recent times, have you?

    White dots in my grind

    Hi there!
    I have been buying Lazzio dark roast from Aldi for a while now. It is decent and better than some $40 a Kg I used to get from my local roaster.
    I had a packet at the holiday house that must have been a couple of month old. Used it anyway with some average results. Mainly weak coffee not surprising. What I don't understand is the white bits I can see in the grind. it's like I have ground chalk with the coffee beans. if I look at the grind in the basket, I can see a white dot every 5 mill or so ... ???
Working...
