Stupid question do we know if it's conical or a flat burr set?

Going off the appearance, it looks like a bottomless conical style.

Much like Etzinger or Sette layout.

Exit of grounds from the bottom suggests conical. Could be the Etzinger mechanisms as previously used in the Swift mini.

LM US Home site states steel flat burrs, but LM commented on instagram saying conical 39mm.

Stealth edit: LM looks to have updated the US site to correct that it's a conical burr, but still doesn't mention the size.

I wonder if it's as loud as the Baratza Sette.

"A user-friendly design, complete with a distinctive "stepped" feel, lets you effortlessly switch between grind sizes on the fly." says this mornings email.

Did they mean "stepless fail" - are we going back to my old Macap MC4.

Lots of competition in that price point. Interesting for them to jump in.

Looks like an Etzinger-designed grinder.

Assuming it's identical to the Etzmax Light T(imed) model in a La Marzocco styled jacket, the price of €1.175 seems very reasonable to me. The GBW feature (which adds $/€700 over the Timed model) completes it, but the overall grinder is designed really well.

What is this? A burr set for ants?
