Thank you all so much,<br />
<br />
This is very helpful. The resulting irregular grind from dull burrs, then resulting in irregular water flow and irregular extraction makes a lot of sense. The poundage info is very helpful as well.<br />
<br />
We will be due for changes here in a couple of months so this is great to know when that should happen exactly.<br />

I like to change my burrs (except for my titanium Anfim) every 300 to 400 Ibs. You can start seeing chafing (white pieces) when the burrs are starting to go.
