X-Ultra

For the same price you can get the 1zpresso X-ultra, which is considered to be much better. So it depends on how much effort you want to put in for grinding (especially if you get an espresso machine in the future).

I have an 1zpresso x-ultra and use it for espresso everyday and it's great. That being said if your girlfriend is considering/interested in a nespresso manually grinding coffee beans for espresso is probably the opposite of what she wants to do in the morning

This is an almost impossible price point to achieve. The closest I can suggest to get you real espresso is a manual lever machine ($100 Flair Neo Flex) and a hand grinder ($160 1Zpresso X-Ultra). You would still need to add in some basic tools to make this feasible (~$100? scale, temp controlled wat

Manual hand grinders are great for most uses and often better value for your money than electric grinders BUT they can be a chore for espresso. Hand grinding for espresso quickly became a nuisance for me. For all other brew methods they’re great! If you’ll be doing espresso often I’d recommend going

O C2 é ótimo mas ele produz muitos fines. Para quem só faz coado existem sim opções mais eficientes que produzem menos fines e deixam o resultado final com mais clareza, acidez, algo como uma bebida "mais delicada", por assim dizer.

The K6 is far better than the k2 as it has an external adjustment system. It will be very easy to dial in shots with an external adjustment system. If you are will to spend 20k on a grinder than you have a couple of really good options. If you solely want to do espresso then the 1zpresso J-Ultra is

Stretch a little more and get the 1Zpresso J Ultra probably the best espresso focused manual grinder in the non/semi professional range. Fixcoffee will give you a 10% discount on your first purchase. It’s listed at 19k and so it will work out to 17k for you. The K Ultra is a superior all round grind

Glad to be of some help. It was actually beyond my budget, and I almost finalized the 1ZPresso X-Ultra, but my experience with the MHW R3 grinder caused me to push my budget a bit to get this grinder. The manual grinding experience feels really novel and good in the beginning, but it gets tiring rea

Which espresso machine do you have? Now for the grinder, I suggest you strech your budget and get a grinder with an external adjustment system. It will be easier for you to dial in the shots. I highly recommend the 1zpresso X-Ultra, my friend uses it daily with his flair 58 and he is very happy with
