Hi ESN! Thanks for the very detailed video :) I wondered if you have any advice for a Mythos One that's 2 years old, it has a fresh set of burrs on but has the following issue; We turn the grinder on in the morning 45 minutes before dialing in and load the beans into the hopper with the hopper slot open. For the first 18 months, the morning calibration routine would be something like this : - We grind the first dose and throw it away. - We grind a 2nd dose, and run a shot, let's say it takes 23s to hit our desired yield. - We adjust the grind setting a notch or two finer, dump 2 doses and pull a shot and we hit our desired extraction time of 28s. Since a couple of months now, we're finding that if we follow the same routine, that within 2 or 3 doses time - our extraction time will jump to 35-39s... So we adjust the grind a bit coarser and fall back down to our desired extraction time and then for the rest of the day it stays pretty stable - we rarely have pauses of more than 5 minutes in between doses. The burr carrier feels lukewarm to the touch before we grind our first dose, but 5-6 doses later it's rather warm. A local technician replaced the heating element, which had no effect. He then advised that we cleaned around the bearing and axle with compressed air...
There are a couple things you could look for. One is there is a defect. The other is the shaft is dirty. If you place the burr holder on a dirty shaft you could be wedging it in. You could try applying heat to the rotating burr holder and use a vice grip to pull it out When assembling, remember to inspect items to make sure there are no flaws. Let me know what you discover. Interested to know.
It sounds like your clump crusher may have been installed incorrectly. You'll need to disassemble your grind chamber and clean it out thoroughly.. When you replace the clump crusher, be mindful of how you bend the teeth. Let me know how it goes?

Apologies for not responding to your question. Did you find a resolution to your problem, yet?
@@EspressoServiceNetwork Not yet !
@@MrRobHazell Have you tried allowing the grinder to heat longer?
Good video!
I guess you did forget to tighten the left bottom screw of the upper burr carrier. ;)
11:26 if I put the rotation bur in but I can’t put out so I don’t know why?!! 😢
