Not sure if this grinder ever really existed but it turns up regularly on various forums. I am yet to hear from someone who owns or has owned one.
Still an interesting piece of design.

I just finished refurbishing my KitchenAide Hobart A-9 granulator. It's a crusher not a grinder. The first shot was too coarse. Second shot hit the mark with 15 grams I got a sweet chocolate bomb! I use it with the tin pictured. The tin works great to weigh the beans and then to cap the Hobart. First picture is with the original gumball type container.

Where do you even find a grinder like that because I can't ever recall seeing one on feebay.it? I would be looking for a turquoise back to match my Urania. Do Olympia Mocca grinders count?aaronmaestri wrote:Here's my favourite.

.....the old Olympia grinders are very noisy, but so much fun to use:

I came across one a number of years back on ebay italy but it was in pretty sad shape and the guy wanted 1000 euros, which at the time seems just ridiculous. These days the auction sites are scoured by coffee enthusiasts and nothing much seems to come up or if it does its for a price.
Id really like a nice FAEMA FP grinder to, they look right sitting next to a vintage lever and the parts all seem to be available.

Similar styling to the Faema Faemina.

If you are looking for a vintage grinder, my friend in Italy has a bunch that he would sell for under $400 shipped to your door. They all vary in age, shape, and size.
