V2.1 Magnetic extended hopper for the Timemore Sculptor 078S
Version 2.1 now available with a magnetic built in cap. Cap has an additional magnet for the original lid, and helps prevent beans from staying on the original antipopcorn piece.
STL for cap hereif you'd like to print it yourself to add it to a V2.0 hopper extension. It uses a 12x3 N52 strength magnet and is superglued together.
Background:
I designed this because the original 078S hopper lets beans fly out without the lid on, and if one puts the lid on halfway as Timemore suggests, the opening is small and difficult to pour beans into.
This hopper extension fixes those issues, allowing you to operate with a single hand without needing to juggle the lid.
Version 2 is a bit taller and has a steeper slope on the front. The magnetic attachment is also a little stronger than before.
- Magnetically held in place
- Fits original lid, with magnet
- Resists popcorning
- Easier to dump beans in than the original half-open lid
- Prevents beans from sitting on the original antipopcorn plate
