22.0g in, 22.1-22.2g out. But I don't think that tells me very much. The grinder can't retain grounds forever - there's only so much space inside, so on average once all the nooks and crannies are filled I'm always going to get 22.0g on average. Question is how much of the 22.1g that came out is from the previous coffee?
Questions are.
How accurate are the scales. Was that 22.00g in, or somewhere within the rounding up/down between 21.05 and 22.05Does 0.5% to 1% deviation in weight actually matter when the beans aren't all identical, so the ratios of dust/skin/centre will be ever so slightly different with every scoop

I've done a little experiment before with light roast and dark roast and it's clear that some of it is retained because I can see the colour difference with my eyes. But I can't measure it easily... I might try one of the blower things
