Default Re: Rocky....To Dose or Not To Dose?

You can also keep a hand vac for getting out the grinds.

I've also heard guys saying they put a little tape under the vanes to really catch the last grinds, but that seems a little obsessive in an already obsessive sport.

I modded my Macap to hold a paintbrush, but a chopstick would also work and I do a quick sweep after a grinding session. (I'll take a pic)

Supposedly, the Macaps sweep better than most, but as pictured, there's always grinds left over.

I may try Moo's mod with the plastic cup. What a genius.

I modded the "beauty ring" as well, painted it silver, and put magic marker marks to where my favorite espresso setting is and go from there, so it looks like magic markers and plastic dixie cups are all you really need once you plunk down the big bucks for the holy trinity in grinders.

I wouldn't go doserless as i have read many reports of clumping without the Thwacking....
