Weber Workshops Key Mk. i Grinder - user experience

Is anyone just incredibly frustrated that they wax poetically on instagram about perfection and crafting etc but you are left with an unusable grinder? I received a grinder that was seized already. Required me to hit the thing with a block of wood, then align with a mallet. I have had maybe 2 good s...

Fellow Ode brew grinder review

For those with SSP burrs. Do you recommend picking them up? I am an international order so won't receive it until next month at the latest. Figured I could order the burrs now if they make a remarkable difference

Hiku: The Premium Hand Coffee Grinder (Kickstarter)

I just got mine. Really can't comment on the grind consistency because of one fault. My hands are too big, I just can't hold the thing and get sufficient torque to turn the handle with out the adjustment collar moving. Has anyone else experienced this?

User Experience: Kafatek Monolith Flat MAX

It is almost like dennis can read my mind. I am starting to push the upper limit of what the flat can do for longer extractions(closer to an ekspresso if anyone has any tips feel free to share them!) and I was starting to look around at perhaps an ek43 for my bench for the lighter roasts.

Flushing the La Marzocco GS3 MP with Acaia Lunar driptray

I have the same tray (same person made it at least). I have to agree, it has a flaw in the design. I would have liked to see more thought put into drainage, any water just tends to sit under the scale and cause issues. I have been tempted to take to the tray with a dremel to cut

KafaTek Monolith production update

I got one in the last round of orders. I used it for a few weeks. Never noticed much of a difference to be honest. I just use the tap to collapse the grinds and it creates a flat surface
