static electricity and coffee grinder

Does anyone else who uses a burr grinder have issues with static electricity and flying coffee grounds sticking to coffee maker and counter making a mess.
First world problem is ruining my mornings.

 

It's your corduroys.

 

Cockroaches don't like coffee. Consider it a blessing.
And, uh, <ahem> why complicate things? Those burr grinders look like the inspiration for a Stephen King nightmare.
Can't tell you how old my Krups is...never had any issue(s).

 

Humidifier....get one....use it.


And don't buy one of those dinky little table-top models and expect it to humidify your entire house. Those are ok in a single closed room. Buy a floor model like the one above. I use a pellet stove so I run the one I show here all winter long. When I'm running the pel stove the hardest I will put at least 3-4 gal a day in the air.

 

no

 

Could help his dry vag too!

 

Fixed.

 

Possibly.

 

Have a whole house humidifier. Indoor humidity is 36%. No other issues with any static elseware in house.

 

Yea I have a nice burr grinder, and it does the same thing. before I pull the tray out I smack the grinder a few times, and shake the tray as I pull it out. That helps but it still gets a little bit on the counter some times

 

We heat with wood and run a humidifier. I've seen it empty 5 gals. in less than 24 hrs. alot when it's cold and the furnace is cranking. I still get zapped all the time, touch a dog, doorknob, light switch zzzzzap. My wife hardly ever gets zapped though. Can anyone explain that ?

 

Nope.

 

Folgers is great for times you don't feel like dealing with that fancy and stupidly priced coffees. When it's on sale I grab the big ass can of it.

 

I have that same Krups, it's so old it's yellow/tan now.

 

how does that work in FL & GA?

 

I have the problem, too. I just clean up once a month or so; most of the flying coffee settles in the tray I've got the grinder in.

Mine's a Ciado, and I think cleaning the occasional mess is worth it because espresso.

 

I think the Starbucks beans are the worse for some reason. I think they're fresh but who knows. The bags come with a one way vent valve plus I put the open bag in a reusable zip lock food saver vac pack and suck the air out. Never heard of a vault. Going to Amazon to oder it now. Vaccum Pac is PIA.
