Bacchi just arrived at home. Bought from caffeemotive since I live in Sweden but don't worry, we won't be finished until we have one if your hand grinders @orphanespresso, have seen nothing like that beast and we have to have one. The perfect complement to the Bacchi.
Anyway, I just had to test it. Roasted up a small batch of Monsoon Malabar since it was what I had at home. Grind size: got in the ballpark for the third session. Me oh my, this machine is just like my Bezzie (sleeping in the basement right now, waiting for new gaskets and an overhaul), it wants a fine grind! I went with the recommended dose of 15g. Taste: wow. Still a liiiiittle bit cold, but... Wow! Definitely the best taste I have had from a Monsoon Malabar single in a long, long time. Actually, the best since Bezzie.
This will be the perfect machine @ work for me and my coffee loving colleague. 6-7 minutes of coffee preparation zen and a great coffee to top that off.
