My grinder (Wilfa SVART Aroma) was broken a few days ago because of hardness of light roasted beans, I'm thinking about whether to fix it or buy new one if the better one exists.
So I want to ask you about such machine : Portable (if try to), electric, and suitable for espresso.
Is there anyone who knows it?

If you're not doing a lot of shots a day the new option o mini with 48mm obsidian burrs could be an option

I'd also consider the Option-O P64, though up to you if it is "portable" or "transportable" at

What's the difference between 38mm and 48mm burr?

Is there such thing as an electric coffee grinder that's not "portable"?

Yes, I own a forklift.

Depending upon what you mean by portable the Kopi Deva, a new seemingly well designed entry, might work as it's battery powered so it will work for a few days with no power.

Read the FAQ on their website. They seem pretty sold on the larger set. If I were going to use lighter roasted beans I'd think I'd get the 48mm. This seems like a good review. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zKNLyciDLoA Lance says 38 is not for espresso.
