Forte BG, bunnzilla, Fuji Royal, or a quality hand grinder would be my list. $1000 for a brew grinder budget is pretty high - do you have space for a bulk grinder? Lots of good options in that realm, but a little north of your budget (with the exception of bunnzilla).

I recently posted a similar question and was recommended the Kinu M47. It's a hand grinder, not automatic, but super easy to use and produces an excellent grind for around $300.

It is so unfortunate that, all the grinders mentioned are not available for sale in indonesia through distributors, i can only import them from overseas even so the spare parts are hard to find. I am open to bulk grinder as i have the intention to start selling cold brew in the future. Do you have other recommendations? Thanks alot!

Is it easy to disassemble for washing of the burrs and then re-assemble after with the default and right alignment? I had thought of it fr travel use, was comparing kinu m47 to commandatE .

There's a YouTube video someone posted showing the disassembly process. Pretty easy : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oH4Dt4Z0_9IJacksen wrote:Is it easy to disassemble for washing of the burrs and then re-assemble after with the default and right alignment?

Smarter folks than I can explain how it works, but Kinu grinders are supposedly self-aligning with very tight tolerances. There's good information in the long "new Kinu grinders" thread.

If you are considering selling coffee in any commercial capacity, a bulk grinder needs to be solely what you are shopping for.
I love hand grinders, but they have a time and place. Grinding out 3-5 pounds for cold brew batches is not one of them. Look for a gently used grindmaster, bunn, etc. not sure about your location, but they can be found for ~$200usd around here if you shop around.

Best automatic grinder under $1000 seems to be the Baratza Forte. But of course if you're willing to grind manually, you can get pretty darn good results out of the high-end manual grinders and save yourself a good bit of coin.
