The Grinder Roosts At Last

This was yesterday’s job. My antique coffee grinder had been waiting around for me to commit and this was the only reasonable place it could go. It should be level from all the measuring and level checking but who knows. (And who knows what’s really behind that 3/4″ wood molding) It relies on shoulders/arms strength rather than hands/fingers. And the first pot today was spot on – just as it’s always been. For grins I checked the weight and it was dead on to what I’d been measuring out to grind, lol. Not sure how that’s possible but there ya go.

Below, there is a pint mason jar to catch the grinds. To the right sitting on the ledge is a black cat inspecting the job, looking at the camera, crouched above his front paws. Behind, there is a bright window.

    I came across my Mom’s recently. Her folks used it for coffee, she/ we used it to grind dried black sweetcorn kernels for cornbread.
