As you can see, there are a lot of stray grounds that miss the cup. Wouldn’t it be better if the cup was literally right under the chute? Am I missing something?

    Plastic also makes static, which makes mess. A taller, metal cup should help. It really should be provided with one…

    I bought the Baratza holder, which is … fine. It works. Looking at Etsy/3D printed options to essentially hold the cup to the top

    RDT should solve your static issues. Look into getting a small spray bottle (and a dosing cup, so you have something to spray the beans in). Anything similar to this: https://amzn.eu/d/9AqRYKn

    I just grind directly into the portafilter that I hold up under the grinder outlet
    Never make a mess and don’t ask for advice on how to not make a mess

    I have a Baratza – are you sure it’s not seeping out the edge? Your espresso is piled in the corner so it seems like there’s a leak there.

    I had to use a piece of tape to cover it haha but probably should’ve had it replaced

  6. I use a magnetic portafilter funnel and grind directly into it.

    My first time seeing this grinder. I don’t think it was out when I bought my encore esp.

    Has anybody had the regular encore esp and upgraded to this one?

    I have the virtuoso plus and got a thingamagic from etsy for the same purpose of raising the cup. Also I spray the beans
