grind on demand mod - DeLonghi coffee grinder

thingiverse

This is a custom modification for my DeLonghi KG 79-89 coffee grinder, enabling me to grind coffee directly into the filter basket for my espresso machine. Designed specifically for use with a Sage Bambino Plus filter basket, this mod should also work seamlessly with any standard 54mm portafilter. While it's uncertain whether larger portafilters will be compatible, I'm eager to test and confirm. I've yet to print this design, but I'll provide updates as soon as I successfully do so. This modification is intended for printing upside down, with the highlighted surface in picture 2 serving as the base. Consequently, it should only require supports on the areas marked in image 3. UPDATE: After reconsidering material safety, I've redesigned this mod to accommodate PETG filament - a food-safe option that's widely available. The latest version (V4) utilizes the lid of the original grinder box, while V5 incorporates a depression to fit around the switch on the grinder, preventing grinding when no coffee is present.
