Can I get a decent grinder for under [$50]?

Or pay 200$ and get a Kinu and you have a manual hand grinder that is the equivalent of a Kafatek MC6 - a 2500$ electric grinder. I’m still amazed by the fact that the MC6 was the only electric grinder that i’ve tried that could match my Kinu M47 Classic

Manual Espresso Grinder: Kinu M47 Classic vs 1zpresso J Ultra [No Budget]

I have an M47 (original model, similar to Classic). I got it 7 years ago when it was the only choice at this quality and price. However, it's adjustments aren't really stepless as I find it difficult to impossible to tighten the adjustment lock hard enough to hold the adjustment in place between cli

Are these all the accessories I need for the robot ?

They’re expensive, but I honestly love my kinu M47 classic. Built like a tank and very precise. Side note, I’d recommend getting a couple of spare piston seals. Apparently they last forever but I’ve had trouble and a replacement seal was the answer. Good to have on hand. Edit: added spare piston sea

Manual Espresso Grinder: Kinu M47 Classic vs 1zpresso J Ultra [No Budget]

I have the M47 Classic and love it. I use it mostly for pour over (using their dedicated Pour Over Burr) but it makes a great espresso with the “original” one. It’s a lovely grinder, and built like a tank. I haven’t used a J Ultra, but the Kinu seems a lot more flexible if you want to switch things

Baratza Encore ESP Pro: My experience

I’m torn on this one tbh. I like the espresso and pour over that I get out of the ESP Pro. Switching back and forth is very easy and repeatable with the digital setting display. That said, I just added a hand grinder (Kinu M47 Classic with pour over burrs) specifically for pour over and the results

Kinu M47 Classic VS 1Zpresso J-Ultra

I commented on your previous post - reiterating my thoughts here just to keep the conversation going: Kinu M47 Simplicity here, and no complaints so far. I love the external stepless adjustment, magnetic catch cup, solid metal construction, built-in funnel, and the ability to swap the classic espres

Doug and Barb present: The Orphan Espresso SMOL Hand Coffee Grinder

I’d get the Kinu if you’re looking for pour over burr swappability. The Kinu pour over burr doesn’t fit or work in the Smol grinder (as it turns out). If you’re not interested in a separate pour over burr, the Smol is a better grinder than the Rebel (IMO.) Or go KINU M47 Classic and get both sets of

First Flair and first Grinder

I love my flair "Signature Pro" (like pro 3) and Kinu M47 Classic hand grinder. They've been my daily drivers for over 5 years and and the maintenance couldn't be easier. I get up hours before anybody else in the home so no noisy machines here. the M47 grinder is pretty silent.
