I just retrofitted my basic hand crank mill with a 10mm nut, and drove it with a drill. It’s so much faster now, but I do wonder if there’s actual properly motorized versions of what I just did.
Like this. I’m running it through a variable frequency drive to limit the revs
I used to grind beans at home. But I just don’t care anymore. I just run them through the grinder at Costco.
This exactly, except Ibuse a DeWalt. I have found that the brand power tool used has little effect on the taste and extraction, however.
Dave smash coffee big rock
Shit i gotta try this with weed
Yes
I have a special drill at work that is just for grinding coffee
At home I my grinder was half the price of my espresso machine.
I could not tell the difference between pre-ground and home ground coffee. I am happy with not having a discriminating palate, since pre-ground is easier.
With dark roast I haven’t found much difference either.
With a local medium roast, I don’t know if it was the beans, but I was able to get a pleasant fruity acidity out of my brew that I haven’t been able to find with supermarket medium roast grounds.
I have a breville smart grinder pro. It’s fine, but I’d love to upgrade
I have one of these too. I concur it does a fine job.
Jokes aside the only negativity I’ve heard about these is they are not fine turnable enough at the lowest end of the scale.
I find I can get an excellent shot with good crema from most beans, but there are still a lot I feel I could go finer on to get a better result. Or just the beans suck.
