Opus

Yo entiendo que al empezar uno se enfoca en la cafetera. Pero es más importante el molino. Sobre todo si querés ir al espresso. Sábelo, Yo compré la delongui duo y la recomiendo, ví videos de la hibrew y me pareció mejor aún. Pero no olvides un decente molino tipo df54, baratza esp o fellow opus y b

I think grinder, water, beans and then equipment Grinder because if you have a bad one with inconsistent ground size then you’ll get a bad brew. That said I don’t think you need to go super expensive of you can’t afford. I think the fellow opus is good enough. Water because brewed coffee is mostly w

I also have both and, like you, do not plan on buying an espresso machine. But I've had a lot of fun experimenting between a conical (Opus) vs. a flat (Ode 2) burr grinder.

There is pre-ground coffee made specifically for espresso machines but even that is sometimes ground too coarsely for espresso. Your best bet h

Fellows Opus - $480 or soDon't let the plastic body put you off as they spent all the money on high quality conical stainless burrs.Not a lot of retention and once dialled in really great crema and espresso.

I got a chance to play around with one of these at a fellow es1 class. let me tell you, for $200, there is nothing on the market even close to it. the stepless adjustment is maybe a touch too firm, but the action is smooth and its the right balance between dialing in to exactly where you want it, bu
