Would these burrs be good for brewing medium roasted coffees? I've mostly heard and read they're good for light roasted beans.

I doubt these are that good for light, ghost/interlocking cannot really grind fine enough especially for smaller brews. I yet to come across any that has changed that, when I lived in Asia where this design is very common, it was always not as good as could have been had they been able to grind finer, on the hand I never seen any of these not doing reasonably well for medium and dark.

Edit: can now see you references is brewed, yes these are mostly good for very light to light, it's clarity and flavour separation isn't well suited to darker roasts.

Do you mean 98mm Brew or like the poster above assumed the ghost/shark tooth burrs?

If Brew I'm not sure if darker roasts would be a good match as they are so clear and revealing that you will taste the roast clear as day and would maybe have to work around that and then whats the point of having these. The extract very high easily from light roast with normal methods.

Brew Burrs. I should have clarified.

for me it tastes ashy with medium roasts so I would not use them for anything else than light roasts.

Just pre-ordered a P100 with the Brew burrs installed. Really looking forward to trying them out, and I hope they're as unique as everyone is saying.

I'm trying to decide between pre-ordering with the Brewing burrs or the Cast burrs, or just ordering with the stock HU burrs and ordering a set of the SSP pre-2015 EK burrs...really having a hard time deciding to be honest.

I mostly do pourovers with my Brew but have done some espresso and they are very clear/revealing there as well. I have ULF and HU for espresso.
