Yeah, he posted another video grinding a dose of espresso at medium speed in about 26 seconds. It's plenty fast enough.

I want one of these so bad to throw in my travel coffee suitcase along with my Flair 58. Just waiting for the major kinks to be worked out.

Last update from the chinese discussion group, it seems that the manufacturer has finally found the right adapter supplier. The V2 should be released quite soon. However the adapter size is very likely to be bigger (not sure by how much) than the V1 adapter due to higher power output, I think it will be tough to fit into a travel suitcase.

Consider the original one is already huge, it was already not portable enough to travel with.

Depends how you travel. I have an entire suitcase for my coffee equipment with foam inserts cut to form. This would easily fit in it.

Do you ever consider the SPTK-38G?

That increase in length is the size of my thumb nail....... If your travel means something with wheels then likely it should be portable enough for "most" people.
If you travel with a laptop, an option is to buy usb-c to the barrel tip converter (depending on the power output of your laptop brick)


I myself follow the weight rule for travel (i am a carry on person) so 1.5lb is the max weight (laptop), so the machine itself I dont consider as "portable", hell most hand grinders fail my travel preferences in that regard. But most people dont do ultralight for travel..... so it is "possible"

That's a conical grinder, and I already have a Helor 106 in the suitcase. Looking at this one specifically for the 64mm flats.

To whom have access to the chinese discussion forum, does the motor is a normal dc motor, caged in a look alike servo body or is a "real" servo motor?

This is great; it's visually very similar to the Ultra, but, of course, no one is discussing that it's missing the single most important feature of the Ultra, namely the burr alignment shim posts.
