☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!

Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

I swapped out the momentary switch for a standard on/off switch from Amazon for my Eureka Mignon Filtro grinder.

The tiny act of not having to stand there pressing the button in the whole time you are grinding coffee seems petty and ridiculous but genuinely results in a better routine overall. I am now free to focus on other aspects of coffee prep and as a result the routine, even if just for the short time the beans are grinding, is improved

I like multitasking. What can I say.

It's lazy by forcing you to find and unplug the outlet (or plug it in).... instead of pressing a button, a categorically easier thing to do.

Wire the outlet to a wall switch

That seems like what OP did, but with more steps.

Yeah but you're not just pressing the button, you have to hold it down the whole time.

You hold it down, by pressing it.

I'm still technically correct :p
