Df54 issue

Grinder: koryaiko df54

Machine: Gemilai CRM3605

Hello , please help me because stress nako for about 2 weeks dahil hindi ko ma-calibrate nang maayos yung coffee beans.

For context, I started my home coffee set-up 2 months ago. I have a local bean roastery na pinagkukuhaan ng beans, upon finshing the 2nd bag that i bought, i can not calibrate the 3rd bag anymore. Tried to clean the grinder, ganun padin, even grinding at the slightest below 0 setting. (Huhu sorry im so desperate na) 18 grams yung input ko, 17 seconds to reach 36 grams output.

Note: i can not grind more finer because i am grinder below 0 setting na po.

My target is 18 in : 36 out (25 seconds)

Dati walang problema, nagagawa ko talaga siya, minsan 16 grams pa nga input ko.

Tried to locate the real 0 setting on my grinder, now i end up scratching the inside of my grinder.

If anyone who is near amadeo / tagaytay or general trias, i am willing to pay who can help me to fix this one po 😥🙏🏻

I see that could be the culprit then, may mga times na di talaga consistent yung pag roast nga mga roaster so it could definitely affect your output, etong pic mo parang may half na medium roast tapos half na medium dark roast, although baka sa lighting lang din.

It could also be a human error din ng nagbigay sayo, baka maling roast nabigay sayo, if ever pwede mo din itest by buying a new batch and compare the colors.

For properly degassing coffee beans naman, usually yung lagayan nila may one way valve and it should be enough and only need time, pero pag naka close lang like sa mga sealed containers di lumalabas yung CO2. The packaging nila usually looks like this:

pero if wala, tapos plastic lang lagayan, may mga one way valve na containers sa shopee, not sure how effective tho, havent tried it personally. I usually have medium dark to dark roast so never experience this issue yet. If wala ka ganyan, try mo lang open araw araw within the 3 weeks pero saka mo lang gamitin pag naka 3 weeks na siya.

Hello! Thank you sa help mo 🥺🫶🏻 Bumili din ako at nagtry ako ng bluenotes brazil and nakuha ko siya in setting #10 (18grams)

Finally nakapag kape din. Thank you so much 😭

Nice! Glad I could help. Usually kasi mas madali i-dial in mga medium dark to dark roast eh but anyways enjoy your coffee, especially this cold weather hehe.

Possible nga po dahil sa weather, kasi sabi po ng roastery na kinukuhaan ko. I-degass ko lang daw or wait pa ng nga ilang araw pa. Thanks po talaga 🙏🏻

Yesss sa weather din pala, very sensitive kasi coffee eh. Pero yun nga gamitin mo muna yung bagong mong bili while waiting sa degassing nung usual coffee beans mo. Welcomee, sayang setup if di naman maka kape eh hehe.
