Smart Grinder Pro

Are people recommending grinders based on actual daily use or just specs? Because on paper DF54 sounds amazing flat burrs, low retention but I keep seeing mixed real world feedback about workflow and consistency. Meanwhile something like Encore ESP seems boring, but people actually stick with it lon

I have the breville smart grinder pro, while not nearly as good as the df54, it’s a very acceptable espresso grinder and costs like 220 cad. Do not buy pre ground, the difference is quite significant.

I also have the Lagom Casa with 65mm burrs and am also stumped. I’ve never noticed any particular “off flavor” that it imparts compared to my prior grinder (Breville Smart Grinder Pro). I primarily drink straight espresso and pour over with light to medium roasts. I would agree that it’s more clarit

I put off buying a coffee grinder for so long thinking the same things. Then my wife bought me the Breville smart grinder pro for my birthday for around $200.

What drip coffee machine do you prefer? We currently have a cuisinart with thermal carafe that is some years old. And I just (literally today) purchased a Breville Smart Grinder Pro tonight which I suspect will be quite the upgrade from our blade grinder. Haha

I've been using the Breville Smart Grinder Pro with the same espresso machine as yours. It been rock solid and does grind very fine. I have it set to 12 typically but that's dependent on the coffee bean. So with good espresso it's consistently good and hits the 12 o'clock mark on the pressure guage.
