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

Correct. When I joined Fellow in November of 2020, Opus was already designed. There was a lot of stuff I wanted to change but couldn't. This is the blank piece of paper version of what I wished we could do. The grinder for the money is ridiculous.

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. So I'm keeping both for now to experiment with different styles of coffee. The Opus was a great deal when I bought my Fellow Ai

I’m very happy with my affordable Fellow Opus (I bought from my company’s “rewards program” shop so it was f-r-e-e). With regular cleaning, it’s superb.

You guys read the post and you come up with a hand grinder rec?! Yikes. OP, the Encore ESP is a solid grinder at $200. It’s reliable and has been around for years, you can’t go wrong. If you can wait until mid-May, the Fellow Opus 2 should be out and at $200 should make for a really strong contender

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

tbh, at this point, the Fellow Opus 2 might be a better bet - for multiple reasons (customer support better quality, technical specs better, and well-suitable for a filter coffee too - also the price $200) but yeah, the Bricks is basically a grinder mainly for espresso (has a small conical burr, 40

Just to mention, the next generation of Fellow Opus grinder is set to come out in the next few weeks/month-and-a-half. Sounds promising, and starting at US$199.95 (US$50 more for non-black, white versions and with a wood lid). https://www.reddit.com/r/espresso/comments/1s1nmzp/fellow_opus_2_in_the_wild_li

That is the fellow opus. But i am unsure if it would be a worthwhile upgrade from the encore. Df64 might be something you would be interested in. Or a varia vs4

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
