Suggestions on upgrading to Electric from 1Zpresso
Femobook has a few grinders a5, a4 and a4z. 1zpresso had a few grinders, few of which being k ultra and zp6. Femobook a4 ≈ 1zpresso k ultra Femobook a4z ≈ 1zpresso zp6 Also the battery is replaceable by standard cell models, so not a case of planned obsolescence.

Coffer grinder recommendation for both espresso drink and filter coffee
It depends on what kind of filter coffee you like. If you have disparate tastes in espresso and filter, this question is far more challenging at your budget. The reason why most filter drinkers dont like the Niche Zero or VS3 is because their conical burrs produce a lot of fines which are useful for

Suggestions on upgrading to Electric from 1Zpresso
I have the Femobook A5, comparable to the K Ultra, like it a lot, use it for espresso with robot, takes up almost no counter space. Been using for around 8 months. I recharge the battery maybe every couple weeks, make around 2 espressos/day

K6 Equivalent Electric Grinder from UK
Buy from china - ship to UK, thats the way (ship to india = crazy duties) Literal K6 alternative is femobook (both are sister companies to 1zpresso) and it will be a portable electric grinder. If you want basic there is the A2 but it wont be better than K6. There is the A4z for pour over (clarity fo

Figured Out Why I Don't Need to Dial in My Espresso
I first encountered this idea watching a youtube video from Daddy Got Coffee, who btw is a huge fan of the robot. I use dark roast beans, both caf and decaf, and the closer they are to roast, the greater the lever resistance. I use a femobook A5 and never change the setting. I just play around with

Niche Zero / Filter?
No input on the Niche, but I use a Femobook A5 for both espresso and pourover - no real complaints, and it takes up almost no room! I've also heard the Lagom Casa works really well for both - it was actually my first choice but no one in the US had it in stock when I was buying and I was up against

Electric grinder comparable to 1Zpresso J-Ultra [$500 ish]
I heard there's some relationship (maybe it's just former employees or something) between femobook and 1zpresso. I have a K-ultra and really like it but just picked up a femobook a5 which is supposed to be a lot like the k-ultra. It is and I really like it though it's a bit slow. I think the a4 is s

Upgrade advice: Fellow Opus + Flair Pro 2 owner — better grinder or Flair 58 Plus 2?
As someone who has had both the fellow opus and the the Flair 58, I would say that from equality of espresso perspective definitely upgrade the grinder first, I upgraded my grinder and got much better results both in the workflow and in the flavor department, I still have my Flair Pro 2, if I did es

DF54 is terrible. Recommend me something better! [$500]
DF stuff is so bad. It’s so hit or miss. Femobook makes some great stuff. The A5 by them is Lance Hendricks at home grinder that he uses for espresso and pour overs
