I read a tip that helps if you have static (it depends on the beans moisture/oil content). I sometimes wet my hand and allow 3-5 drops of water to drip into the measuring cup of beans.
Another tip for this grinder is that I tap it while it is about done with the batch to aid in getting all you can to come out of the dispenser. Even then you will have a little settling effect after a few hours to overnight.
The next time you start it (with or without adding beans) that will come out. This can be discarded if you are not grinding often or are wanting the freshest results. It usually is about a tsp or so that you will see come out then. I have tried to get this to go ahead and come out when I initially grind by shaking/tapping but so far, I'm not able to get it all until later. That could be due to a little extra moisture taking time to dry up.
So maybe it is a balancing act between that and static. Whatever the case, this is a great grinder and not a messy one.

However, I've also heard that a dedicated burr grinder like this yields "better-tasting" coffee. Is this really true?
Thanks!
I guess there's no harm in ordering this OXO grinder and doing a blind test!
are there other interesting uses for it, besides grinding coffee? just wondering.

I brew my own beans light to medium roast. My last grinder was capresso and was a champ for eight years, although i hear the quality has gone down.

Another static tip that always works for me is to don't grab the metal dispenser cup right away after you grind. The static does dissipate after 2-3 minutes.
I would grind beans first and let rest in cup. Next I fill the water reservoir. Then put together the carafe and line the filter cup.
May also get other morning fixings ready. Only then after several minutes, I grab the cup with the grinds and pour.
No static.
