How bad can retention be in some grinders? I've only owned two low to mid end grinders and both had a little bit of retention but easily less than one gram. On our Sage probably closer to quarter of a gram. Are there grinders out there that dump a tablespoon of previous grind out?

With a little photographic blower, I generally get <0.1 g retention in the Mazzer, so that weight in = weight out exactly. I'm fairly fastidious with blowing it all clear.

Used to use one of those in a coffee shop and the little chutes are generally full of the last shot's grounds, so a little blower would pretty much eliminate that I imagine. Can definitely see that become a packaged feature of many grinders in the years to come.
