Samuel ★★★★★

Honestly, the stepped grind settings make dialing in pour-overs so much easier than I expected. The aluminium body feels properly solid on the counter, and it’s been spot-on consistent every morning for the past two weeks.

Ryan ★★★★★

The 40 mm flat burrs are doing exactly what I hoped—my morning V60 has way more clarity than with my old conical grinder. The 30 steps give me fine control for switching between pour-over and French press without fuss.

Zoe Z. ★★★★★

The aluminium body is a proper upgrade—it feels solid on the counter, and those 40 mm flat burrs give my morning pour-over a noticeably cleaner, more even grind than my old conical grinder. Even at the finer settings, the 30 steps make dialing in a new bean a breeze.
