Better Than Yesterday. Better Every Day. — How Geimori Improves Product Quality

Inside Geimori quality improvement cover: How Geimori Improves Product Quality — Better Than Yesterday. Better Every Day.

At Geimori, we believe a good product should keep getting better.

That's why we've adopted a simple philosophy for our quality improvement work:

Better Than Yesterday. Better Every Day.

It's not about claiming our products are perfect. It's about listening to customers, finding out what went wrong, making improvements, and checking whether those changes actually work.

Here are a few examples from our ongoing engineering and quality reviews.

Case 1: How a Small Component Led to a GU63 Improvement

Some early Geimori GU63 units experienced interference involving the internal scraper.

Our manufacturing team investigated the issue and traced it to two contributing factors: the height of a plastic spacer and the positioning of related components.

What we changed

The team corrected the spacer-related issue and adjusted the relevant production process.

What we learned

Even a small component can affect how an entire grinding mechanism operates. Component tolerances and assembly consistency deserve just as much attention as the larger parts customers see.

Our manufacturing team has reported that the issue was corrected. We're continuing to track subsequent production batches to verify the improvement over time.

Case 2: Improving Grounds Buildup and Anti-Static Performance

Customer feedback also highlighted coffee grounds accumulating inside some GU63 units.

Rather than treating this as simply a cleaning issue, our manufacturing team reviewed the internal structure and worked with component suppliers to investigate the anti-static system.

What we changed

The internal structure was adjusted to address grounds buildup, and incoming component inspection became another focus of the improvement process.

How we evaluate the result

We look at grounds accumulation, component performance, and customer feedback from subsequent production batches.

The structural adjustment has been reported as completed, while follow-up performance verification remains important.

Case 3: Learning From the GU64 Anti-Static System

Our quality review of early GU64 units identified another useful engineering detail.

The insulation around the anti-static needle left insufficient exposure. During use, coffee grounds could accumulate around the needle and interfere with its performance.

This finding gave our manufacturing team a specific area to investigate rather than relying on general cleaning recommendations.

It also reinforced an important lesson: the effectiveness of a component depends not only on its specifications, but also on how it's installed and how it performs during real-world use.

Further corrective-action and verification results are needed before we can report a confirmed improvement.

From Customer Feedback to Quality Improvement

These examples reflect how we approach quality at Geimori:

  1. Listen: Collect and review customer feedback.
  2. Investigate: Identify the root cause with our engineering and manufacturing team.
  3. Improve: Make changes to components, structures, assembly methods, or quality control procedures.
  4. Verify: Test the changes and review subsequent production results.
  5. Follow Up: Track customer experiences and investigate any recurring issues.

We also continue strengthening component inspections, assembly controls, motor testing, and final product checks.

A correction isn't the end of the process. We want to know whether it continues to perform as intended after the product reaches customers.

Better Than Yesterday. Better Every Day.

A better coffee grinder isn't always the result of a completely new design.

Sometimes, it's a small adjustment to a spacer. A change in the internal structure. A more consistent assembly process. Or simply paying closer attention to something a customer noticed.

We know there will always be things we can improve.

And that's exactly why we keep listening, testing, and refining our products.

Better Than Yesterday. Better Every Day.
