Opus

Had a Fellow Opus, don’t recommend it. The opus is all plastic, for espresso the micro adjustments are unnecessarily complicated and shortly after a year it kicked the bucket and refused to work. Local repair shops have been unable to get the part that got fried. The Ode is pourover or immersion onl

I see alot of people having trouble with the fellow opus, thankfully, someone in the video comments pointed out about the alignment. you're supposed to push down the blue ring and then adjust the outer ring. then for the next time, just move the outer ring to 1 to reset the alignment and then you ca

I would never take fellow up on their word without actual product experience. Seen their trackrecord a bit and would not be suprised if the Opus gen 2 has a even bigger retention than the first gen lol

Linea micra with a fellow opus is absolutely wild

I’ve been testing our dev units and consistently have seen retention at 0.1g or less - usually less. From a coffee nerd / ex barista standpoint (not just a “hi I’m Hailie from Fellow,” standpoint), I am beyond excited for opus 2.

Impressive. I never got that much, but I did the Opus Rock each and every grind until I upgraded to a Eureka. ;) Somebody posted yesterday about a "free" Opus and a commentor linked this review with thorough measurements: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pGti7BKKgEg Fellow is saying they are getting

I feel like Fellow has some identity problems. They sell the most expensive kettle on the market, and really try to put aesthetics high on the priority list, but then they continue to try and undercut the market and sell “value” products like the Opus. I feel like they need to figure out if they are

Baratza Encore ESP Pro, it's what cured my rage after the Fellow Opus. Whatever you do, do NOT get an Opus. With the Encore ESP Pro you're good to grind just about anything from a reputable brand for $299.

Don’t get an all in one machine. Budget for a separate grinder. The Baratza Encore ESP is probably the cheapest mechanical espresso grinder that has decent longevity, repairability, and value for money. Some will recommend the Fellow Opus 2 at a similar price but I personally can’t recommend Fellow

It’s a solid grinder, but will not work for espresso. I had it and switched to a Fellow Opus—don’t buy the Opus Return the grinder and get the DF54.
