Sculptor 078S

I love my 078s. My tips are: Get a magnetic pointer for the grind dial. It's impossible to get repeatable adjustments without it. Check that you can get burr chirp somewhere between 0 and 1.0. If there is no chirp at 0, or you get chirp at a number greater than 1.0, then move the zero point pin. My

its possible, but not optimal - the grind adjustment thread on the 078 is coarser, compared to the 078S mechanism, so the grind selection is not as granular, making the dial-in a bit more difficult on the 078, the adjustment is also stepped, but you can disable that by removing a small part correcti

I have not had a lot of time with SSP MPs. Tried pourover with SSP MPs in a Zerno and P64 at a tasting, they were...not dialed in. Have had about 30kg with the stock 064s, and I think they were competent all-rounders. Not a ton of body but decent clarity at low RPM for filter brews and nicely textur

Timemore Sculptor 078S is pretty compact for a grinder with 78mm burrs. The workflow is wonderful and since release there have been more burr options produced for it, such as the SSP MP 78mm.

I love my 078s. Some tips are: Get a magnetic pointer for the grind dial. It's impossible to get repeatable adjustments without it. If you can't grind fine enough, move the zero point pin one (or more if necessary) hole in the counter-clockwise direction to grind finer. If you get burr chirp as you

I have a Timemore 064s and also 078s and I love both of them. Check out Lance Hedrick's method for aligning Timemore Sculptor grinders. No disassembly or shims required. Both of my Timemore grinders arrived perfectly aligned (at least according this method of testing).

I've been using a Timemore 078s since January 2024. I recently got a 064s to replace my Niche Zero. Check out my post for more info. I observed a lot of complaints about the Timemore grinders when they were first introduced, but almost no complaints recently. I've heard Timemore made some improvemen

I have both Timemore Sculptor grinders 064s and 078s, and I love them both! I've had the 078s for almost 2 years. I liked it so much I got the 064s for my 2nd setup. If you search this sub or other forums for these grinders, you'll see lots of negative feedback when they were first released, but as

If you just dropped $$$ on a La Marzocco Mini, capping your grinder budget at $1k isn’t wrong — but it’s definitely the limiting factor now. The Mini can make almost any grind taste good, sure, but with a higher-end grinder you start tasting more of what the machine is actually capable of: sweetness
