The Friday before last, when we got to the shop to get ready for our CinderBlue music night, our bulk grinder was making a horrible "chunking" sound. This was bad because CinderBlue always draws a large crowd and, being evening, we expected a higher than average number of decaf orders and, since we were already down one espresso grinder, the bulk grinder was acting as our decaf grinder.
No problem, my father in law was at my house and joining us soon, so I made a quick phone call and had him bring out little grinder from home. We made it through the night and ordered parts for both grinders thee next day, but... on monday our home grinder quit working. Mandy made an emergency trip to the store so we could get through the week. After spending a couple of hours on thursday fixing grinders, we are now back to maximum grinding capacity, at home as well as at Green Plow... at least for now.
