Important note: This article is written for Opus 1, not Opus 2. Opus 2 features a completely different grind adjustment system.
Opus 1 has 41 settings on the outer adjustment ring, which can be seen when looking directly at Opus 1. This ring can be adjusted between numbered settings from 1 to 11. Between each numbered setting are 4 minor increments, allowing you to set your grind setting by increments of 0.25. With this setup, there are technically 120 positions on Opus 1.
Underneath the load bin is a blue ring that allows you to get between the 4 minor increments in the outer ring. That’s what we mean by “41+”!
