Hi there

i'm using Sette 270 which is dead yesterday morning for no reason. So i was looking for other options and discovered Atom. I'm between Eureka atom and Ceado 37J .

I single dose, i don't like to keep my beans in the hopper. The sound is a plus but after Sette everything is quiet so no problem.

Could you please post some grinded coffee? What i really like about Sette 270 is the fluffy grinded cofee, just perfect. I really don't care about the speed or the noise but the result. Some of you mentioned about popcorning, i'm also concerned about this.

I had an F4 (my son now has), upgraded to Monolith Conical. The F4 was quiet, fluffy grind, low retention, clean and easy to use and take care of.

I would buy one again and use.

I enjoy the Monolith but for the money, I believe the F4 is outstanding.

Interesting I have not seen any spraying on "my Atom". On par with my former MK ProM...

After reading a few other threads, seems like Eureka Atom is definitely the go-to for its quietness and ease of maintenance.... but not good for single dosing, which i am quite used to due to previous experience of hand-grinding and frequent change of beans.

The struggling point now becomes if I want to get an E5, where can I get it (in a 220v country) and whether there will be new grinders coming after SCA

BellaBarista in the U.K. carries the Compak E5.

Yes redbone but they're out of stock except the red one ... and out of person pref I do not like red =(

For Atom owners - any of you know if the burr inner diameter is same as 65E? (which shouldn't be but Im just hoping it might be the case because I found a single dose cup that might work if they are the same =S)

Did you end up trying a single dose cup on the atom? did it work?
