My Sunbeam grinder went CRUNCH the other day, as if trying to grind a rock. I thought that doesn't sound good. Restarted grinding and the coffee was obviously very coarse, not the setting I was using.
Pulled it to bits and the top, removable burr, had sheared off 1 of the 2x locating/locking lugs on the bottom. Rooted.
How does this happen? Did I actually get a hard bean?
I've been carrying a bag of spare grinder bits around for yonks, when my mates identical grindex capped out. Problem solved quickly, but I'm just curio u s if anyone else has had this issue.
Are the burrs available as a spare?
