What grinder to get?

Neither. Avoid ceramic burrs. They don’t do a good job and create a lot of fines. Hard to recommend exactly without knowing what your budget is and what availability is where you’re located, but here are some good manual grinders to consider: All-around grinders that do well for all brew methods: -

Which setting for Aeropress?

If you want good results (and not waste a lot of money in the process), get a decent but affordable hand grinder. You really don’t want to dial in your beans one store-ground 12 oz bag at a time. The TIMEMORE Chestnut C3 ESP Pro is a more than decent all-around grinder and can be yours for $72 right

TimeMore C5 Pro/ESP Feedback

Here is Coffee Chronicler's latest handgrinder video. I also checked his written review on the C5 on his blog. Summary: A tier above the C2/C3, but still below the S3 (their 'flagship' model). The pricing also reflects this. They are trying to position this new grinder as their new entry level model

hand grinder [$100]

Maybe I was unlucky with my K6 but I have both - only difference is I have the C3esp - and taste-wise I much prefer the timemore, even with filter or immersion. The k6's capacity is nice but I find my cups are brighter with the timemore

Kaffe für Bialetti - selber mahlen?

Die Bialetti Mokka-Kocher sind super. Aber einmal überhitzt kannst du die wegschmeißen. Ich wollte das nicht wahrhaben, habe aber beim direkten Vergleich zu einer neuwertigen Kanne einsehen müssen, dass sie nur noch für Altmetall taugt :-( Zum Thema Kaffeemühle: Ich benutze eine Handmühle (um die 10

I’m Thinking of getting this timemore c5. Do you think the price can go down further?

Holy crap. That's already quite cheap. Naalala ko yung C3Esp pro ko noon, binili ko from Timemore PH, around 4.5k, though I willingly paid extra for the pro version (it's just the foldable handle). For a starter handgrinder or if you're upgrading from a blade grinder or a ceramic burr grinder, those

Moedor de café para prensa francesa

Mas o Timemore C3 nem é indicado para espressos (a não ser que você use filtros pressurizados). Acho que, nessa linha, o Timemore C3 ESP seria o mais indicado para espressos e para a sua prensa. O Blade R3 também é uma boa opção. E se quiser um elétrico, indico o Starseeker E55 Pro. Ele é construído
