Mazzer Philos Grinder Review

How can a burr be sweet? Keep the question in mind for this review entry. The Philos is delivered with the 200 burr, a burr with no prebreaking section, so similar to the SSP MP and the flat burr of the DRM hybrid. A closer look shows that it is fairly different from the SSP MP, since it has
