Mignon Libra

I can buy specialty beans almost for the price of supermarket organic blabla beans. So I guess you have to find a better supplier. Also your grinder does the most important part.

If he just uses his la pavoni id either stretch to the cheapest grind by weight grinder you can buy in the USA. Here (EU) the Eureka Mignon libra is 450 eur-ish. If that is too much and he volumetrically doses anyway, any hopper grinder. I wouldnt expect your dad to want to weigh out his single dose
