- Trying to make the same video which i had made before for DF64 Gen 1.
In this video we will be going through 2 parts
1) Finding the burr touch point (zero point) upon first use of the grinder
2) How to avoid getting the undesired grind size even the grind indicator shows the same number.

the way that don't have to power on to find the zero point is so helpful, thanks a lot
thanks a lot!!! You saved my day
Your videos are extremely helpful, thanks for taking the time and explaining everything so clearly!
Always welcome and it's Mt pleasure to help in any way I can.
Super helpful. Thank you 😊
thanks CY, you know what i was doing with my df64 until your video? i was turning the metal arrow around to change the settings.. thinking its as easy as the breville grinder,, i didnt even know i had to turn the entire machine around to change the setting,, no wonder i was getting bad coffee... thanks for the video, saved my coffee game.
Glad that my video help you!
Enjoyed the video. I ordered this model and this will come in handy. Thank you a bunch for sharing this information.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice job. Very clear. Getting mine in the next week or so. This will be very helpful for my first steps.
Glad it helped
Just got this. Great video! Great help!
my pleasure to help!
Hi CY, thank you very much for this video. I was so confused when I first received by DF64 Gen 2 and had no idea how to set zero point so I just turn till I cant anymore and set that as zero. Luckily for me, I have yet to grind anywhere close to the burrs touching so didn't risk burr damage. I have also watched your burr alignment video and am motivated to do it on my grinder too.
On another note, I'm also residing in Singapore and have recently just started roasting my own coffee too and it's really nice to see others as passionate about this craft too. Thanks for your service to the community :)))
You are always Welcome and glad that my video helps you!
This is brilliant - thanks.
You're very welcome!
Hi there! Recently received the DF64 Gen2 and discovered your channel during @HoonsCoffee's live stream. Appreciate your guidance on burr seasoning. This video was particularly beneficial, especially transitioning from hand grinders to the DF64. Planning to do an alignment test based on your part 2 video! :)
awesome and thanks for watching my channel too!
Very helpful!! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for this guide
Happy to help as always!
Thanks a lot !👍
Welcome!
I've found the zero point, but it's way over around 5 o'clock on the dial. Any way to get that dial pointing to zero into the front center (like I could do on my much older Rancilio Rocky)?
Oh yikes glad I watched it, wish there was a safeguard
What's the worse that can happen if I let the burrs touch each other for a bit? I did not know this did not came calibrated from the factory so I tested it as it came. Only later did I found out that the machine needs calibrating.
Nothing really bad will happen, actually.
Probably not an issue if you're spinning it with your fingers whilst it's off.. I was using mine of setting 5 for a while but move it down to 4 using it on. I didn't realise the burrs were touching and it did damage (wear them) so I would let them touch while motor is running personally.
My Gen 2 galled up really bad between the carrier and the ring and locked up. I don’t think it had enough lubricant between the two. Have you had any issues with yours messing up and getting hard to adjust?
So far I have not
yeah not the most foolproof design unfortunately. Things can easily go wrong in a shared household where others don’t watch coffee making videos and just want to have a coffee. The adjustment wheel really needs to lock at zero and not turn any further to avoid accidents.
Plus it’s hard to remember where you are if it’s on one of those lines in between numbers. Better to have more lines in finer print and each one numbered individually so you can have a number for each decimal micron or something similar
There is one foolproof design that is getting a superautomatic coffee machine that makes decent coffee at the touch of the button. Speciality coffee needs more attention and understanding in order to make good coffee. I do agree with one point that you make. Which is the locking of the zero point as beyond that the burrs will be touching. Probably, that is the only thing that you need to tell whoever is using the grinder to watch out for. Other than that, most grinder will still require you to make adjustment of the grind setting.
@@CaffeMartellaSingapore Yeah I would hate to see my GF grinding away my brand new SSP burrs because she carelessly turned the dial the wrong way :)
@kulkulan223 yeah I totally feel you.
