J-Ultra

If you don't mind turning the crank yourself, you can get incredible value from a manual grinder. I have a 1zpresso J-Ultra, and I'm so happy with it. Easy to clean, grinds 18g coffee in about 30 seconds, 8 micron adjustment means I can dial in any coffee to its sweet spot. Plus it is very quiet fir

The best solution is to buy a grinder and grind the coffee yourself, it is really the best advice I can give you, if you are on a budget you can buy a manual grinder like the K6 or for a little more a 1Zespresso J ultra on Amazon

Hand grinders are the play, if you don’t mind the extra work. 1Zpresso J-Ultra rocks so hard for $199. Honestly, they produce results that compete with $400 electric grinders.

Once you get great grinders, it's mostly about preference. Not "this much better". I would absolutely encourage you to try 1Zpresso hand grinders if the idea of hand grinding is tolerable. Some people will never consider it. I have over $10k worth of grinders at home and use a 1zpresso as much as an

The J-Ultra from 1zpresso is excellent for espresso and falls right in the middle of your budget. I’ve had it and used with my Robot and have been very happy with it.

If you're really looking for affordable and a g

I’ve had an X-Pro S for over 2 years (predecessor to the X-Ultra). I love the grinder. It’s a fantastic all-purpose grinder (as is the K). The burrs were slightly changed when they came out with the X-Ultra, but you get more for your $$$ with the Ultra - it has a magnetic catch cup and comes with a

If you’re willing to consider a hand grinder, the 1ZPresso J-Ultra is around $180 and does a better job than most grinders in the $1000+ range.

I have no idea of the pricing in Poland, but the 1Zpresso J-Ultra is a hand-grinding star; and the KinGrinder K6 manual grinder well-regarded for its quality/output/price value ratio.

It's an over-simplification to simply say the grinder is more important. I'd say they are equally important. A crappy $100 espresso machine will cause just as many problems as a crappy $100 coffee grinder. Also, if you are doing light roasts, upgrading from a $300 machine to a $1,000 machine with ad
