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

Timemore 078, Femobook A4Z, Varia VS6 with supernova gold burrs or a good 64mm grinder w/ SSP MP burrs would all be good choices.

Especially for light and medium roasts, I would consider the Lagom Casa and the Timemore Sculptors (the 064S and the 078S).

Four categories. Sub-$200 (it does job and in expensive) Mokkom/shardor/GF64 $200-300 (great bridge grinder and possibly you will want to change these grinder when you upgrade your machine) DF54/encore esp/new fellow $400-500 (potential burr change) DF64/timemore 064 $700 (good value grinder).

Yeah this is definitely a much needed upgrade to the Sculptor. It makes it so much easier to know exactly where your dial is without having to bend your neck so much. I found a design on Maker World, 3d printed it myself, and just fixed it on with Glu tac, works perfectly. Sculptor 078s dial indicat

I would reject both of your options. Libra ... in theory should allow you to switch between settings easily. I don't agree with your theory. Switching any hopper grinder between grind settings is problematical. You need to purge the grinder to get rid of the retained grinds from the previous setting

Timemore Sculptors are 20% off for the next 8 hours on Amazon. And probably will be again several times over the next few weeks. The 078s has more reports of needing lots of seasoning to be consistent; haven’t seen as much of that with the 064s and would be well under budget. Seems to fit what you’r

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

You actually have too many choices. I'd suggest buying from someone close that can provide after-sales support. If not the same state at least in the same country. There are too many grider reviews on YouTube but James Hoffmann has a useful overview of grinder concepts from a few years ago. Anyway,

Timemore Sculptor 078s. I used to use espresso J max, but was tired of grinding light roast. The difference in taste and texture was unbelievable tbh. I was not expecting such a difference.
