i just finished the install of Michael Elvin's 'Elvinator' and I am so impressed! Just a little piece of plastic in between the doser lever plate and the chute changes everything. On top of a good cleaning, its like I have a new Mazzer! Sure, a little mucking about and scrubbing after getting the doser removed is always messy, but a clean grinder is a better performing one. My counter is cleaner, and my barista are already freaking out! I highly recommend this mod to anyone who works with a Mazzer grinder. All in all, the total time for removing the doser, cleaning and installing was about an hour, but I had a bunch of buildup. All the while, I was reminded of my days in the shop of Espresso Parts, dismantling grinders and the smell of rancid grounds, but once you break through the buildup and start reassembly, it is so rewarding to see a clean grinder with a new addition ready to make your day easier.
Thank you Michael Elvin!! This is one of the most needed mods for this brand of grinder.
I am a happy barista!
