Hi,
I have a few questions and maybe you can give me some suggestions. I recently bought myself a LA PAVONI PA-JVD jolly grinder, but discovered some things about it that don't make it perfect for my usage. I like different kinds of coffee (drip, espresso, french press) and I would like to change the grinding settings with ease. The turning wheel on the La Pavoni is hard to turn, especially when I want a very fine grind. Is that so with all the grinders? The other thing I am curious about is that since I drink about 3 cups of coffee per day, the doser is a bit of a nuisance. And when I take it off I see that there is a pretty huge GAP between the burrs and the doser where the coffee will be stored. That means every time I want to grind enough for maybe 2 cups of coffee, the grind for the first cup will be the one from last time! So, my question is: are there any good grinders that are more suitable for home use, that are more IMMEDIATE (that allow the coffee from the burrs to drop into coffee holder without any excess tunnels?) and are simpler to regulate for different types of grinding, and still do the grinding good also :)?
thanks for all who answer...

Pavoni make 2 types of grinders under the name Jolly, the one with the doser and one without, the difference in the product code being signified by the letter D.
All grinders must have a space between the burrs and the coffee outlet. You can remove the doser and spoon out the grounds that remain of you wish.
If the wheel is difficult to tuern its probably because there are grounds caught in the thread. Take the beans out of the hopper, remove the hopper, and keeping the grinder upright unscrew the wheel until you can remove it and check the threads for coffee grounds which impede the wheel from turning.

thanks for all who answer... Im a novice to grinding coffee. Is there a good budget coffee bean grinder you could recommend for me? Preferable not too expensive. Fresh Ground Coffee Is Good For You. Coffee Beans Stay Fresh For Longer.
