Start a coffee and, while the mill is running, turn the grinding dial one click clockwise toward 7. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Which way do I turn the Fisher & Paykel grinding dial for GROUND TOO FINE? Clockwise, toward 7, one click at a time and only while the mill is running. ### Could my Fisher & Paykel softener filter be behind GROUND TOO FINE? Yes. Fisher & Paykel says an air bubble from the softener filter can block delivery; run hot water to clear it. ### How long before a grind change shows on a Fisher & Paykel? About two coffees. Judge after the second cup before moving the dial again. --- **[Read on the site: Fisher & Paykel GROUND TOO FINE: open the grind one click while it runs](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/error-codes/fisher-and-paykel-ground-too-fine/)** **[Book a visit with CoffeeMachineRepair.center](https://coffeemachinerepair.center/schedule/)**
