If you drink all or mostly milk coffee and just buy one bag at a time then use it till it’s gone your might as well load that hopper up. Neither method is perfect, each has its supporters and detractors. I don’t think there’s actually too much difference, but choose the one that suits your modus operandi the best.
The only advice I have if you decide to fill the hopper is to purge a little each time to clear the chute of any old grounds. And give the grinder a good clean out with a vacuum (or compressed air if you have it) once a month or so.
