Adjustable fork: Distance from top of fork to coffee chute is approximately 2.25". It can be moved down approximately 0.375" to accommodate different size portafilters or removed completely to put a container.
Optimally sized bean hopper: Holds approximately 8 ounces of roasted beans for plenty of espresso shots. Ergonomically design to keep the overall height low and not to stick out beyond the rest of the grinder. A set screw holds the hopper in place as opposed to other grinders which are friction fit. It is also equipped with a stopper if you want to remove the hopper with the beans in it, and a finger guard...just in case.
Easy controls: Located on the right of the grinder. The large switch turns the grinder on. The button on the lower right switches the grinder from semi-automatic (pushed out) to timer (pushed in) in timer mode. The knob on the lower left adjusts the amount of time the grinder will run. Turn clockwise to increase time and counter clockwise to decrease time. Push the pressure plate in front of the grinder underneath the coffee chute to start grinding!
