I wouldn't worry too much about the stale coffee unless it's always storing and dispensing stale grounds every time you use it.
My Cunill stores some stale grounds, but they get stuck in places which I cannot get to, and tend to stay there, so it doesn't affect my coffee noticeably. I always use a pastry brush to clear any coffee from the chute each tme I use it though.
Latest coffee I've been drinking: Algerian Coffee Stores' Yirgacheffe. This one is nice. Not the most intense Yirgacheffe flavour/fragrance, but it does have a nice peanut nuttiness to it. I think it may be slightly stale as it doesn't pur with the thickest cream. I'd guess maybe 3-weeks post roast.
Has anyone else found some of the Algerian Coffee Stores' cbeans to be a bit stale? Their Rossa Espresso blend was super fresh, but I guess it's a popular one with a high turnover.
