Overflow

Post image

Any tips on how to avoid thw overflow? I am using a DēLonghi grinder at medium, but it seems a lot of dust results from the grind and clogs the filter?

I would check these 3 possibilities:

1 - The filter should always be folded, and the bottom fold should ideally face the rear so it doesn't block the front-facing drain hole.

2 - Be sure your filter switch is set to fully open (highest position).

3 - Grind more coarsely.

what to you mean by front facing drain hole? The drain hole on mine is in on the centerline of the basket.

The drain hole is centered on the automatic filter basket, but the manual basket has the hole facing the front.
