I have Gaggia Macinadosatore MDF grinder (http://www.1-800-espresso.com/coffee-grinders.html). Does anyone know anything about how to fix them. Mine seems to get jammed on something and stops turning. I called a repair shop and they told me to just buy a new one. I took it apart and can't see anything wrong with it, i.e. it doesn't seem to be that complicated. Has anyone else had the same problem or a solution?

I have broken off the handle twice,and had to disassemble the doser to replace it. Keep the center screw a little loose so it doesn't bind. Those moving parts in the doser are replaceable from http://www.culinarytechniques.com/CT-Gaggia-grinders.html#MDF.
