Set the dose (to reach the mark inside of the filter basket, see image for perfect dose) starting from the minimum position. The numbers of the dial are a setting reference once the perfect dose in the filter is reached. They do not correpond to grinder settings or to measurement units (gr/oz) or to grinding time  \n2.
