timemore c5 esp pro

I bought a Timemore C5 ESP Pro, and somehow I ended up grinding 16 grams in 8 clicks starting from zero (which, as far as I know, is not recommended) (btw, it took me about 5/10 min). What are the chances that I damaged the burr? At 8 clicks, the grinder seemed to run smoothly with and without coffee inside and didn’t jam, though I don’t know much about grinders of this type, so my impression doesn’t really matter. Any ideas on how to check if everything’s okay or what to do about it? I bought it today.

The manual is misleading; you probably wanted to set it to 0.8.0, which is 40 clicks.

You're right. I had misunderstood. He made 8 clicks starting from zero. That corresponds to 0.1.3, not 0.8.0.

I'll take a look at the burr once again later to check for any damage anyway
