So I picked this one up super cheap as the former owner locked the burrs with a foreign object. This is the 54mm flat burr version, not the cheaper I-2 with the conical burr:

You can access the burrs by removing the hopper and top cover. You need to also remove the adjustment...

Hello,
I have two grinders I use with La Pavoni lever machine, the Aergrind and the Comandante (standard axle).
All the rest being equal (coffee, coffe weight 14g, water, water pressure, tamping, lever pressure):
- When using the Aergrind, I need to keep a setting that's...

This is an updated version of the original Grinder Shootout III originally posted on Decent Diaspora.

I would like to hear from others, your experiences, with the Key.

Are the Niche Zero grinders now being shipped with the smooth interior wall dosing cup? Image on their website is of the cup with the groove in the interior. Smooth wall 2nd gen cup listed under Accessories . Hope the image is just dated.

I haven't been able to find any info about this grinder on the forum. Just wondering what everyone thinks. I don't see any details about the motor or the burrs but I kind of like the design/idea
