Grind settings by brew method

Worked out from this grinder’s own dial curve — five reference points placed on a shared 0–100 grind index, interpolated with a monotone spline for conical burrs — rather than a one-size-fits-all chart.

Dial range: 0 – 19.6
Burrs: Conical
Filter reference: 6.3
Espresso → filter: 4.8 numbers
