I just filed the stopper off of the rail, and wedged the tip of a toothpick to keep the button pressed down when the hopper is ratcheted down too far for the rail to push the button.
Obviously, this would void any warranty, and be careful, because you have the potential to grind the burrs together if you screw the hopper down too far. That being said, its a pretty easy way to get this cheap grinder to perform a little bit better, keeping him out of the dump for at least a few more years.
