A stepped dial: settings click into fixed positions, so a setting is repeatable but you cannot land between two of them.
Grind settings on other grinders
A number on a grinder dial only means something on that grinder — even two units of the same model differ. So instead of pretending “18” travels, BrewCult records what people actually landed on after switching, and shows you the spread.

Why these are approximate: Converted grind settings are approximate starting points derived from community data. Dial in by taste — burr alignment, wear and unit-to-unit variance all move the target.
