Things You Don't Want to Put in Your Grinder

Dimes are already thin enough.  The repair department discovers foreign objects in equipment once in a while.  How these things get there can be a mystery.  Grinders incorporate powerful magnets to catch any steel that may find a way into coffee, but they cannot stop copper, brass or aluminium.  Thankfully these metals are soft enough to not damage steel burrs, but they will stop your grinder from working until the offending object can be removed.  Say the mantra with me: "Keep your grinder lid closed".  Or label your grinder "This is not the tip jar".
