Thanks for the heads up with the static electricity carl, I'll try the fabric softener trick with the grounds bin, I was wondering if there was a solution to that thank you Carl. My intention is to grind a couple of days worth at a time and store the grinds in a Kilner jar to stop them drying out. However I will have to wait untill tomorrow when the grinder is delivered before I can play

Folk with far greater knowledge of the topic than I - only a couple of weeks in - will correct me if I'm wrong - but - for the freshest coffee one delays the grinding to immediately prior to use. Besides which, with the 'number of cups' dial set to your need, this machine will have the coffee ground before you have finished the other preparations you need to make. I press the 'go' button on my way past to the cupboard to fetch a cup - the coffee is ground before I close the cupboard door. In a small kitchen!
It is fun to play at first, though!
If you have difficulty getting the bean hopper fitted atop the machine - I did - PM me.
