Nice! Check out the Baratza website I had the 30 and you can get the upgrade to dial in. Called: Adjustment Assembly for Sette 270 and Sette 270Wi. (I needed the shims too.)

Espresso? You can pull a perfect shot of espresso at home without a $5k+ machine? And without a $1k+ grinder? Yes, I definitely can and do. I got a 1zpresso manual grinder for $160 and a Flair PRO Manual Lever Espresso Maker for $300. I make great espressos at home. Want an electric grinder? Go get

If you want solid support and no drama, look at Eureka Mignon models (Specialita or same-range) or a Baratza Sette 270 — fits your budget and are made by companies that actually answer emails. Your current Baratza is fine to learn dosing, tamp and taste, but it won’t give the ultra-consistent fine g

I meant Baratza sette 270. You're referring to the hibrew range. I got a Baratza sette 270 in 30k and I think that's the cheapest for a really good grinder. I have used a Eureka Zero which is 45k and the sette is better.

OMG…my Baratza Sette 270 is so loud that it stops conversation in my neighbor’s house across the road. ;) But it gets the job done at an affordable price.

Short version: Baratza Sette 270 is the best bang for your buck to actually surprise you compared to an integrated grinder, Niche Zero is nicer but pricier. Budget realistically $300–700 if you want a real step up, anything cheaper will help but won’t “blow your mind”.

I feel you. The advantages of single-dosing are quite huge:(1) Beans remain fresher in bag than they do in the hopper(2) Day-to-day grinder adjustments are not necessary anymore (as the beans in the hopper keep degassing and, every single day, a slightly tighter grinder setting is needed to maintain

From my experience and what I have gathered from research, the Bambino Plus and the Baratza Sette 270 is the absolute best bang for your buck that you can start with.

i've struggled with the fellow opus for more than a year but eventually gave up - such a non-consistent grinder and slow af, takes forever for a double dose and needs very frequent cleaning + slapping around switched to a used but well-established grinder type, the Baratza Sette 270. difference is d
