The receptacle includes an electrically conductive material and is removable from a location where the receptacle is arranged to receive ground coffee beans from the grinding apparatus. The electrical ground contact is electrically connected with ground and is positioned with respect to the grinding apparatus such that when the receptacle is arranged to receive ground coffee beans from the grinding apparatus, the electrically ground contact contacts the receptacle.
