Opus

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

My Fellow Opus retains about 2 grams per grind. I have to beat it out I am talking like body slam it to get .3 short of my initial grind amount.

This!! I had the same experience. The mess and the retention was a nightmare. When my customers ask for recommendations Fellow opus it's a big nope from me.

I have a Fellow Opus. I haven’t owned anything else and the coffee is good ish. It makes a mess and grounds build up like crazy. I can’t speak on any other grinder but know you’ll be cleaning that thing twice a week inside and out.

A very helpful discussion, and including the Baratza Encore ESP and the Fellow Opus, from espresso guru James Hoffmann: The Best Espresso Grinder Under £250 -- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7xGhGtvYIs&t=1301s. Also, note that Fellow is coming out with its next generation of the Opus at any time n

The espresso machine doesn't have to be fancy. They're just pushing water through coffee grounds and even the cheapest ones do 20 bar. You don't need more than 9 bar. I'd ask you if you really like espresso first. Also, where are you getting your beans from? Most people who get into it only do so af
