Bricks 01S

Manual grinder for espresso? Absolutely not. I mean you can, but the first time will be the last time. Your chocie of espresso machine is a pretty good choice for space-saving setup. Maybe check out Timemore Bricks 01S, it takes less real estate than a DF64/54—costs way less but is very capable of r

I have no experience of the DF54, but I have seen a few different waves of disappointment threads for it. Stuff like static build up, clogging, and so on. I do have the Timemore Bricks 0!s. I bought it 2 or 3 months ago, at the ridiculously low price of 229 euros. At that time there were some concer

Really enjoying my Timemore Bricks 01s. It feels heavy and well built, compact, and grinds coffee really well. I mainly use it for espresso and would say it does a way better job than the barista pro grinder. I was skeptical because people said it didn’t grind fine enough for espresso but that’s not

I’m also interested in the Bricks 01S as a possible espresso + pourover “do it all” grinder, but I wouldn’t call it a proven long-term option yet compared to more established grinders. For espresso, I’d mainly look for: – whether it can grind fine enough consistently – how easy it is to make small a

What a coincidence! Check out my opinion of the Timemore Bricks 01S that I have just this minute posted. I like it a lot for espresso, and I also recommend the Eureka Mignon Manuale with single dos bellows that I also use on a daily basis. One is conical burr, the other is flat burr. Both are curren

timemore bricks 01s, a bit over half of your budget. Tinny sound and having it running before throwing the beans in means a change to the habits i grew using the niche zero. Gives a very solid feel nonetheless. Contrary to other reports, grinds perfectly fine for my espresso - that's using 49mm euro

I have had the Mignon Manuale for about a year now. I loved it when I first got it but now I merely like it a lot. It gives very good results but I think it is a bit noisy. Retention is low, results are consistent, but the grind adjustment wheel is tiny and unsatisfactory. However I am now in love w

I use a non-pressurized basket with a bottomless portafilter and a 16g dose. You are correct on the microns (10 per click). I just found a short review that provides some specs and the RPM is 450, so yeah, definitely produces enough fines for a nice texture and body. Thanks for your input! Hopefully

Exactly. Upgrades can always be considered later, but what you have now, you can still make great coffee with. Pretty sure I’ve tasted fantastic espresso from a friend’s Bambino and I thought about it for a few days because of how good it was—and he was using the Timemore Bricks 01S grinder. My firs

I wonder if they upgraded it or something? Because some people say it does not grind fine enough and some people say they are at level 2 for espresso (which means it could go even 20 clicks finer) Found a review, sounds like an amazing grinder to me (especially for the price and design). They also f
