Thank you for the thorough comparison! It is my first grinder from 1Zpresso and I was really confused why it screwed back on each time at a different setting. Now I see it's by design like this, thank you for the help!
No problem you are very welcome and i am happy that the video helped you. Unfortunately this type of grinder has a fixed adjustment dial and can not be calibrated like other grinders that have a removable adjustment dial. So you are kind of stuck with the number that you have when you close the burrs completely. It is possible to move the 0 number closer to the starting position by taking it off and then moving the metal pegs on the underside around to the next hole, this will also move the number that you have when closing the burrs. There are three pegs and one of them should let you move the 0 number very close to the starting position, so try all three and see how close you can get. Mine gets the 0 about half a number away, but thats good enough for me, its better than landing on 6 or 3.
Hi, thank you for your very explanatory videos on the 1Zpresso grinders. I am a bit annoyed with the company’s crappy webpages and manuals following the QR-codes. I have been trying to understand which grind charts to use having bought the “J manual coffee grinder”. Neither of their charts shows anything marked just “J”. Would your assumption be that I should use the chart marked for Jx?
Yes i totally agree with you that 1Zpresso just cannot seem to get their website together and make is user friendly, its really the reason that i started posting these video's. Basically the J Grinder is a reissue of the JX Grinder (with a couple of changes) so the grind reference chart from the JX Grinder is 100% the same as the grind reference chart for J Grinder, so you wont have any issues using the JX chart for the J grinder.
Show me, how about you go and buy the two grinders and make a video to explain the differences between the two grinders in 3 minutes. When you have done that, send me a link to your video and i will critique the video.

Thanks for the great review. Couldn't find any other videos talking about this specific grinder.
You are very welcome, happy you found the video useful.
This video could have been 3 mins long
