No sooner than I posted that, the new gear for the MC2 turned up. I wonder if part of the reason the grinds are fairly unremarkable is due to the drive gear and cone burr being attached, but the housing for the “ring” part of the burr is in a separate housing. These are screwed together, but not in a way that guarantees concentricity.
Fuck it, better than putting the drill back on the hario slim for now. And it does seem like I’ve managed to dial the grind a lot closer to what I need for espresso. It pulled a very quick shot, but it tasted pretty nice tbh. 18g in, 40 out in like 10 seconds. But it wasn’t bitter, it wasn’t sour, it didn’t have the greatest body but it did taste nice. Fuck knows.
Can’t wait to sell it and get something a bit better tho!
