The original dial on the Barista Express grinder has quite wide steps between clicks, so I drew another one with as much spherical notches as I could!
Those notches keep the dial from turning by engaging with a spring loaded ball.
I now get a little more than twice the resolution in grinding coarseness which is much better for dialing in espresso. Works well for over two years now.
I recommend a small layer size and the best printing settings you can manage for the best dial locking results.
Please note I drew this from the original dial of a Barista Express bought in 2022, the design could have evolved on newer models…
You must open the top of your machine which is quite easy with tutorials on YouTube.
I noticed stl viewers tend to not show the notches under the dial, but they show fine when you slice the file for printing, I don't know why.
