How to shim a coffee grinder?
Place the shim between the mounting/setting and the burr and reassemble. CAUTION: The aluminum shim is very sharp. Assess and check the burr set by hand after reassembling to make sure there are no collisions between the burr sets. Collisions will cause irreparable damage to your burrs and may also damage your motor. To shim the lower side of the burr, place shims under the screw opposite the high point. Repeat this process until a full wipe is achieved, then align the other burr using the same method to ensure parallelism.
