This is probably one my deepest darkest fears in life

I found my first rock after roasting last week. I finally made the club. Glad I found it before the grinder did.

That would probably make me never buy from that brand again. I wouldn’t even bother getting freebies from them. Considering how much people spend on grinders here, this is a catastrophic failure on their end.

If I ever get a rock I can safely say I won’t see it before it hits the burrs

Unrelated question – I have the same container. I recently went away for a week and came back and it had lost vacuum. Started watching it and, the green ring stays for no longer than 3 days. Have you notice that it loses vacuum after a few days ?

A rock made it into my grinder but I was lucky it fell in after I quit grinding so it wedged itself so my burrs wouldn’t spin. I took it out and everything’s fine

You guys take your rocks out?

Who was the roaster of that batch of beans?

Honest question: is there anyone out there throwing beans directly in their $200+ hand grinder without weighting and inspecting? Because that’s the only way a stone will ever meet your burs.

That would be pretty hard to grind finer..

Please let the roaster know. Destoning is a big part of QA/QC

Once I accidentally droped a bag of coffee and spilled beans over all over counter. Luckily that revealed a single small stone mixed with the coffee!

I’ve been roasting for over 20 years and have yet to find a rock in my green beans. I see posts like this every once in awhile so I should consider myself lucky.
