Conical Burr size - difference in the cup?

Grinders are one of the keys to exceptional espresso. Discuss them here.

Currently I'm using the KinuM47 and can't help but notice the attractive price of the Webber HG-1 I see from time to time so
the big question is how much of a difference will the larger burrs make in the taste? Ascetics and ease of use aside as much as I love
the look of the Webber I want a more upward then lateral move.

I prefer the lighter fruity and funky espressos so is this even something I should entertain or hold off and save up for some end-game flat burr beast like the Lagom P100 ?

thanks all.

I have used the m47 and niche zero extensively and can't I'd be able to tell them apart in a blind tasting. I haven't used the mazzer major burrs but it's tough to imagine they'd be a big step up from where you are now. I'd say hold off and get a big flat eventually.
