Looking for some starter advice - grinder and extras

Be patient, making great espresso is not easy. You need a combination of good beans, grinder, water, machine and technique. It's fun if you like the hobby though! Get the best grinder you can afford. I like the Sette 270 if you want it to go fast. Baratza also has great customer service. Noisy grind

Grinder selection paralysis [budget $300~] help

I assume it’s an Encore ESP you have, in which case yes, it’ll do you fine as you dial-in. If it’s the base Encore, then not so much — it lacks the resolution to adjust grind size appropriately for espresso. budget: $200-400 German/italian/western make Oof, this will be tricky. Low end Eurekas can f

Started in 2019, how it's going now

Sette 270 purchased in 2018 still going strong here! Moved to single dosing recently and have both the Baratza hopper and an Aliexpress bellows unit to try out.

Recently moved and I had to work 10-16 hour days. First day off so I had to setup the station.

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.)

Help me choose a coffee grinder!! [$500 budget]

I always enjoy posting that my Baratza Sette 270 has ground coffee like a champ since the day I got it, low retention, a little loud yeah but it grinds for espresso and does filter coffee when it’s not dialed in for my espresso machine. Everyone always tells me online that it’s too loud but I don’t

Electric grinder equivalent to J-max [350$]

In cup, Niche Zero is pretty similar, but as others have noted, out of budget, especially with the tariff nonsense rendering them especially unworthy. Baratza Sette 270 is noisy, plasticky, and janky. But excellent support from Baratza and the Etzinger burr gets you better texture and flavor (more c

(trying again for mods🙄) Getting Married. Best Electric Grinder to Most Affordable Grinder? [budget varies]

Where are you going to register? Most department stores don't carry specialty grinders suitable for espresso. Assuming you are in the US, if you register at a specialty store like Williams-Sonoma, Sur La Table, or Crate & Barrel you'll be able to get a Baratza ESP which is an OK grinder. If you regi

Should I buy an espresso machine, or upgrade in a different way [£500/£600]

DF54, Eureka Mignon Zero 55s, Baratza Encore ESP or Baratza Sette 270 are all good grinders to upgrade to.
