Sounds like it's not quite ready for prime time, despite dosing consistently. Hopefully this thing is firmware upgradeable!

The grinder is ready for prime time. The manual is not. I finally got mine programed and it's working like a dream.

Even the menu system is a bit quirky. For example, when you get to this edit screen, the blank upper right tile accesses the advanced menu. Nowhere does it indicate that!



And pressing the "900RPM" button gets you into the RPM adjustment menu. Pushing and holding the same button gets you into a deeper level.

So it seems everything has been thought out functionally, just not programming-wise.

I would anticipate a firmware upgrade at some point.

Outstanding!

Sounds like an ideal shop grinder then. The grind quality itself is certainly beyond reproach. A disproportionately large percentage of exceptional shots I've had in commercial settings have come from Mythos grinders.

I sent an email to info@victoriaarduino.com, but they replied to contact Nuovo Simonelli/USA.

I sent a PM link to my Google Drive with the vids.

I am quite surprised how much different the coffee tastes. Smoother, but not as defined. The burrs are no where near broken in yet.

Yes I have a feeling this grinder is going to take over the market once it's dialed in. The large burrs, quite operation, and incredibly fluffy grind, even without the burrs being broken in is pretty amazing.

The settings are a lot and you will need someone at the shop to really know what they are doing, but the quality will be unparalleled in a fast paced environment.

That is my experience with Mythos burrs in shops, and with the genuine Mythos burrs in the Kafatek Monolith Flat grinder as well. It is a very pleasing shot. If you want more clarity in your extraction, it is easy enough to swap burrs to the current SSP ones. In a commercial setting it might make sense to have a Mythos with each set, if budget and space permitted. They do change a bit with break-in, but the general concept remains the same.

First busy weekend with the new grinder. A few barista moves had to be modified to accommodate the tare delay, but considering the grinder starts automatically after it tares, the time spent elsewhere makes it a wash. Grinds pour out as politely as my monolith and the doses are on +/- .3g. Considering I have the tare tolerance set to .5g to speed up the tare delay, that's not bad. It is truly whisper quiet and the coffee is superb.

I love this grinder.

Hi together,

I am heavily considering to buy the Mythos Two Gravimetric for private home use. I know it is much too expensive for home use but somehow I feel like I should try it and I have owned many different Mythos (One and Plus) grinders and so far these have been my favorite grinders. As I am drinking pretty dark roasted espresso I am a little bit unsure if the Mythos Two Burrs are good for dark roasts or if they have been specialized for light roasted espresso so that they might be too unimodal in terms of grind distribution. Does anyone here have an opinion in this question? I would be very happy if anyone could help me.

Best regards

Bojan

There seems to be a firmware upgrade released for the Mythos 2. Anyone know where to obtain it?
