This was made for the Breville BCG820BSS Smart Grinder Pro - it might work with other models but I have no way to test. This is one of two models I made to improve (I think) this grinder - see below for more details and a link.

This model uses an (optional, but recommended) additional hardware item :

  • #6 steel washer (3/8" OD, approx. 9.5mm)

  • suggested metric equivalent washer : M4

The purpose of the washer, which is inserted during printing, it to allow the magnet in the grinder to "grab" the receptacle, so be sure to use a plain steel washer, not stainless steel.

I just got this coffee grinder, but I found the grinds receptacle design annoying - the grinds receptacle is held on with a magnet and is a little bit difficult to remove, and you need to unscrew the receptacle lid to empty the contents. Yeah - I know - not the world's biggest problem, so admittedly this is a very minor annoyance, but still . . . My solution was to design a replacement receptacle lid which enabled the container to be emptied without removing the lid. This is my preferred solution so far. The replacement lid includes an "easy grip" so you can remove the container and empty it using one hand. This is my preferred solution so far.

Before I made this model, I made a simpler design to address the the "hard to remove" issue. If you prefer that approach, you can find that model here :

Assembly and Use

 Simply remove the old receptacle lid and replace it with this model.
