Initially, I was weighing coffee grinds for espresso shots, but eventually stopped doing that. I just fill up the portafilter the same every time. If a shot is too weak or too dense, it usually means a small change in the humidity, so I change the grind dial slightly up or down and re-do it. Not a big deal; as it doesn't happen too often. I re-check and re-calibrate the grind dial on my Mazzer Mini when a new bag of beans is loaded into the hopper; we go through 4 lbs of beans a month, normally.
